About this listen
Separated from her son and forced to create a neural implant that will mean the effective enslavement of her psychically gifted race, Ashaya Aleine is the perfect Psy: cool, calm, emotionless...at least on the surface. Inside, she's fighting a desperate battle to save her son and escape the vicious cold of the PsyNet. Yet when escape comes, it leads not to safety but to the lethal danger of a sniper's embrace.
DarkRiver sniper Dorian Christensen lost his sister to a Psy killer. Though he lacks the changeling ability to shift into animal form, his leopard lives within. And that leopard's rage at the brutal loss is a clawing darkness that hungers for vengeance. Falling for a Psy has never been on Dorian's agenda. But charged with protecting Ashaya and her son, he discovers that passion has a way of changing the rules....

Loved it!
This is my favourite so far, I loved this storyline in the psy-changeling world. I loved all the excerpts from letters and journals, something different for this series and an added an aspect of insight and almost concern as to why...is it all past tense from someone that's gone!? I loved the no nonsense aspect of Dorian wanting to bed Shia even while he hated her, none of the B.S. pretence of that not being there and I loved how many different enemies this book gave me to worry about, where was the danger going to come from?! Awesome.

Dorian!!!.
Finally!! Dorian's story!.
Oh I so waited in anticipation for Dorian's story because not only did he have a tonne of Psy baggage. He was also a sinful flirt with a dangerous air around him.
It didn't disappoint. Ashaya and Dorian are very opposite and not at all on the same page. He's full of rage and wears danger like a cloak. She is smart beyond comprehension and full of secrets that are literally life and death.
It's safe to say their journey was not easy and they had to overcome many obstacles to get to the end and have their slice of happy.
It was so sad and very bittersweet at times. Whilst other moments were lust induced frustration, temptation and oh so teasing.
It's safe to say I felt all the feels.
This world is so intricately woven and finally detailed I'm honestly so fascinated as to how this author manages to keep it all together and continue to grow this world that's ever evolving. It's a crazy place to be.
This series is wild and book 5 is another great addition to this epic series for sure. I'm excited to read Mercy and Riley's book. The dynamics between the cat and wolf are sure to be firey and I can't wait to see the dominance battle between them and who in each pack stirs the pots and winds them up.

Not as good as some
Enjoyed this book but a bit overlong, feels like the last bits could have been woven better into the story.

Nalini Singh never fails to make me fall inlove with her characters and go on a journey with them. Hats off to the roller coaster of emotion.

Entertaining but not the best book in the series
Although I liked Dorian in previous books, he was less likable here. I could not think of him as a man the brilliant Ashaya would chose. It gets better later in, but the story feels a bit rushed and with too many mentions of things as ‘masculine heat’, ‘changeling heart’ and ‘scientist mind’. However, even in mediocre form, Nalini Singh still builds a wonderful and compelling world filled with interesting characters and history. The narrator is one of the best in the paranormal romance genre.

Shingles
After absolutely loving book three, enjoying book four and taking two steps forward with this series I was looking forward to Dorian and Ashaya’s book. Unfortunately this book had me taking two steps, and two stars, back. I liked Dorian in the previous book but found he grated on me in this book. He was either angry, snarling or having a pity party the entire book. We were told by the heroine and supporting cast on many occasions that Dorian was intelligent and charming, but simply having characters state that doesn’t make it so. He did nothing to show intelligence or charm. In fact had I been Ashaya I’d of run screaming from him. He gave me whiplash with his mood swings. Once he told Ashaya he didn’t care if silence fell and the psy died or were harmed as a result. A few chapters before he fell apart when finding a dying psy family and had the psy traveler agree to avenge them. The one part at the end I was interested in, Dorian finally becoming whole, lasted a total of six minutes!! We had longer than that listening to the, “encrypted personal files of Ashaya Aleine,” that were inserted into practically every chapter. This was another thing that annoyed me. Ashaya was a good character and I quite liked her, but the way the narrator reads the psy women’s voices sets every one of my nerves on edge. She reads them as if they’re simpering, meek idiots. Plus I was treated to hearing her voice Sascha and Faith the same way, as they appeared a lot in this book. Not to mention I had to listen to Lucas call Sascha, “kitten” several times. AGAIN!, I thought that was over after the first book, but no. Hearing that term and having to listen to the narrator voice the psy females got on my nerves so badly that I honestly feel I have shingles. The story was ok, but there was no romance. Talking about sex, or having sex, isn’t romance in my opinion. The author has also brought the human alliance into the story. That’s fine, but the only people she’s portraying as good at the moment are the changelings. I hope that changes in the remaining books. I’m going to have to re listen to book number three before I carry on with this series else I would stop now. Please God let there be no more psy female main characters with this narrator. My ears are still bleeding!!
