Psy-Changeling - N. Singh

[Heather]

[Darcy]

These are really fun ones. The concept with the Psy is very different from anything else that is out there.

[Heather]

Is it romance or erotica? Or on the line? It looks like it might be too much for me.

[Darcy]

This is one series where the covers should be ignored. The story as far as romance/sex aren't any worse than Lora Leigh's breed series or Christine Feehan's series. Not quite all the way to erotica, but not your mother's staid romance book.

[Heather]

K. I just don't want to find myself reading orgy scenes.

[Darcy]

No, the only scenes are one on one.

[Carrie (Care)]

I have them on my list because I was told to ignore the covers as well. A lot of people have recommended them to me so I figure I will give the first one a shot.

These are mainstream paranormal romance, not erotica. The sex scenes are about the same as what you would find in other popular PNR series by Kresley Cole, Jeanette Frost, JR Ward, Sherilyn Kenyon, etc.

Psy Changelings is one of the better paranoral romance series available. Highly original world building, great character development, fast paced engrossing storyline, and good romance!

The first book Slave to Sensation is one of my favorites in the series. Other favorites include Blaze of Memory, Branded by Fire, and Stroke of Enticement (anthology).

And I agree about ignoring the covers. They are so lame, but the books are much better.

Did you have to read these in order? I've only read the first book

[Darcy]

It does help to read them in order as there is a larger story arc going on. Plus the world is a different one and in the first couple they explain in more in depth.

thank you :)

[Darcy]

I think they are ok, this series is much better.

[Carrie (Care)]

I have the first couple in this series, but haven't read them yet. I plan to next year though. I really liked the first GH book, but haven't read the second yet. I read a short story for the GH series and it was pretty good for a shorty.

[Heather]

I liked Guild Hunters and I liked book 1 of this one. I think I took to the first Guild book more, but that's because aparently the changling-changling books are better than the psy-changling ones are.

[Heather]

THe short story was what got me into the series.

[Paula]

I know I started Slave to Sensation, but I don't think I finish it. It wasn't bad. I don't believe that I decided to stop reading it and I currently can't find my copy of 'Slave to Sensation' in my piles of books. Mmmm, I'll have to look some more.

I think both series are good but I liked the Guild Hunters a lot more. Both are very steamy with interest worlds, but I think GH has a more exciting plot/setting (instead of paranormal romance, I would describe it more as urban fantasy romance). I also like that the series follows the same two characters, instead of switching to a new couple each book

At the moment i'am reading

[Vivian ♪(┌・。・)┌]

I love this series, although whenever I reread them and look at the covers I find myself cringing. HAHAHA.

Guild Hunters is a fantastic series :)

[Heather]

I don't love the covers either. Blaze of Memory has the guy with a gun on it when the character doesn't even have a gun at any point in the story. He's not a cop or an agent so it makes no sense.
I'm reading #10 now.

[Darcy]

You will be caught up now Heather.

[Heather]

(view spoiler)[All these Psy are almost burning out and about to go crazy and die. Just once, it actually needs to happen. Blaze of Memory was the first time I thought it might. It's too easy when ppl never die. (hide spoiler)]

[Heather]

Just got the newest one in from the library. I'm very excited.

[Darcy]

There are some surprises in this one. As a heads up, it moves slowly.

[Heather]

I really need to finish this one. I'm half way through and I keep getting distracted. I use to have a hard time reading on my kindle, but now I'm starting to struggle with books. That's not right. I should always appreciate the book. Even though it's a poor dead tree.

[Shera (Book Whispers)]

I'm reading Shards of Hope. I love how this romance seems more sweet and intense.

While normally I love all the world building and background stuff I don't mind that this is more of a setup piece. Building up what it clearly going to be the next conflict/enemy.

I'm really hopeful that the RainFire clan will be explored in future books.

I agree with you about the romance. I have a feeling that RainFire will show up more. Or at least I hope they do. They bring about a different dynamic.

[Shera (Book Whispers)]

Oh, I really hope they do!!!

It's funny but this series is one of the few PNR series that I faithfully stick with anymore.

Cole's IAD is the only other one and that's just by sheer force of will now. Hoping she'll do more world building and spice up her "love formula".

[Darcy]

I couldn't get into IAD, didn't work for me.

[Shera (Book Whispers)]

I can totally see why. I'm really starting to fall out of love with IAD. All of the annoying aspects can't really be ignored anymore.

Especially now that every male lead seems to be an ass. The tough women are crying damsels and . . . no world building. The sex is starting to get stale too.

AT least her YA series is good. It's forcing her to leave her comfort zone.

Lost where I am on this, think I ODed to begin with
