I really like this series. It is edgy, unique, complicated, and completely sci-fi, paranormal to the extreme. My complaint with this one is that it's very much the same plot as the first book "slave to sensation". Fortunately for this book, I liked the characters a little better in this one.

Faith is a F-PSY. She is isolated and protected because she can predict the future which has proved very financially lucrative for the Psy race and council.

Vaughn is a changeling. Half jaguar half man, but ...more

Second one and another 5 stars. I wonder if this will the pattern of this series.

I really loved this 2nd book of Psy-changeling series. Faith character was beautiful with her fears, her doubts and her vulnerability. Vaughn, well, he's Vaughn, passionate, caring, hot and a safe anchor. Is there anything else to wish from a man?

There were two aspects I liked the most, the first one was the discover of this new entity, Netmind and its independence. I wonder how it will develop along the story. The ...more

She is their most valued possession literally worth billions with her accurate predictions of business trends. However, she has started to have visions of a different kind which have led her to question the order of her life and the conditioning known as Silence she has adhered to all her life. She’s having visions of a menacing darkness thirsting for blood and murder. Then her sister is murdered in the exact manner of one of her visions. Faith begins to venture outside her compound to investigate more, but on the outside of her secluded and highly secure home, a jaguar is slowly stalking and drawing ever nearer.

I have to say that I really enjoyed this book. I liked it a lot more than Slave to Sensation. I found Vaughn infinitely more appealing and sexy. I actually love everything about Jaguars. The cars; so sleek, sexy and classy, and the animal; so big, primal, and deadly. Though I had difficulties again following the way the PsyNet works and all the language etc., I’m muddling through it. I think someone who is much smarter than I should write a Psy/Changeling Guide for Dummies. I get enough of it to equate it with the internet and hacking and viruses etc, but I’m not that technologically savvy. However, despite this, the story is engaging, sexy and very exciting to read.

I loved Vaughn as our jaguar hero. His extreme possessiveness of Faith was actually sort of yummy and his need for her surprising (for him) and romantic to watch. The deadly, stoic, invincible and loner jaguar was brought down by a little emotionless Psy. It was great reading watching his need grow and his coaxing the feeling out of Faith. I love the contrast in characters that Nalini has created with this series. The cold vs. the hot essentially and it always creates some monumental steam.

In terms of steam, I only wish that we got just a bit more, just a little bit. I’m really eager to find out the difference between a Psy woman and a Psy man – so thankfully Judd’s book is next. I’m anxious to see how the dynamic of his needs/wants will manifest. Will he coldly desire her only, or will he let go of the conditioning of Silence and feel emotions??

While I didn't enjoy this book like I did the other one I still found it a great read.

I adored Vaughn and liked him and Faith as a couple. At first I wasn't really feeling Vaughn cause he kept touching Faith even when she told him not to. I get the fact that touch is something special to changlings but if someone ask you to not touch them the least you could do is not touch them. There was times when I thought he was gonna let his cat take over. And I don't like the fact about the whole mating. ...more
