LOL, I think we all felt that way! I was SO beyond mad it ended like that, I had read the first 4 in like 3 days because I couldn't stop at those darn cliffhangers! Shoulda just waited until now...

Welcome to the challenge, Sallie! Great series choices! I need to take another look at my list and see which others I might want to add on to mine. :)


I need a tad bit (or more!)of your control!

Read! I loved the story arc here! The cliffhangers almost killed me and I was uber happy I read the series once they were all out. I love a good series as much as the next gal, but I have to give credit for a well planned and executed storyline that doesn't just keep dragging on unnecessarily.

The official UK release date is November for the paperback but you can get it on bookdepository from June :)

I noticed there's no price listed and it not available..Is it because I'm in the US and it's the UK edition?? I'm not familiar with BD...

Ames is right Christina, BD doesn't discriminate due to location. If any book is not available, that means they are sold out or having difficulty with the publisher.
In this case I suspect Ames is correct and the trade pb was a short print run.

I think I can wait for the US paperback. If I can't, well, I can always shop for the best price on the hardback. ;-)



Nalini Singh has a very particular writing style and she's fun to analyse.

I think I'm going to enjoy the series. I wasn't so sure after the first book, but the second convinced me.

I'm not typically a rereader, but I look forward to the day when I can reread this whole series one right after the other. :D
I can't wait for Kiss of Snow!!

Surely they've already got the artwork done, a printer lined up, marketing organised, so all they'd have to do would be final editing and it would already have been edited a couple of times if its a big author.
So what's the hold up???? Are you listening publishers cause we really want to know?
