This one tells the story of Brenna and Judd. Brenna's the changeling who was kidnapped and tortured during the first book of the series. Judd's the Psy assassin who fled with his family from the PsyNet to escape rehabilitation and ended up living with the dominant wolf-changeling pack. Wow this stuff sounds far-fetched, but that's paranormal romance for you. I didn't expect to enjoy this book too much. I was resentful of how the first two books dealt with Psy females who were so emotionally damaged from the Silence Protocol (brainwashing that prevents all emotion), and then when we have a Psy male and a changeling female instead, it's still the female who's portrayed as the victim needing protection. Well...that's paranormal romance for you. As it turned out, Judd had his own fair share of problems so it wasn't quite as bad as I was anticipating, but Brenna's constant breakdowns, irrationality and fixation on Judd got on my nerves. Yeah, I know she has to fixate on Judd for the book to work, but it was distasteful to watch. Also, there was a big discrepancy between the way the characters were described by the narrative and what they were actually like. It was constantly emphasized how Judd was totally Silent and his will was so strong and he was so closed off, but he made very little attempt to resist Brenna's advances. As for Brenna, okay okay I know she was tortured and traumatized, but I got sick of how we were always being told how astoundingly strong she was when she kept on freaking out and doubting her sanity and going to Judd for hugs. Probably my biggest complaint was the over-the-top generic stuff that keeps on appearing in these books. The "she was so good and pure but he was full of darkness" crap. I mean, fine, let him be full of darkness, but in that case, at least have him kill a few people in a gory way to prove it... Judd threatened plenty of people in this book, but I don't remember him killing anyone. Oh, and another thing. Brenna, halfway through the book, turns out to be some kind of computer genius? Yeah right. It felt like the author was throwing us a bone. Well, that's paranormal romance for you. That said...I am REALLY looking forward to the next book!! It tells the story of Clay and some woman named Talin. I read the excerpt of it included at the back of this book and it sounds great. The excerpt for Caressed By Ice that was included at the back of the second in the series didn't leave me nearly so excited. At the same time though, I feel a bit cheated. I've been really really looking forward to this book. Now after months of anticipation, I got it, read it in an afternoon, only moderately enjoyed it, and now just like that I'm back to eagerly waiting for the next one. It's a vicious cycle.
