I love this series! I’m excited to be going through them again. I absolutely love animal shifters and the way the Psy-world works is unique and gives a lot of opportunity for different types of adventures than the standard battles etc that occur in many fantasy books. I like both Lucas & Sascha’s characters and their chemistry and love is enjoyable. Cheers to rereads!

The romance is alright, the Changelings are interesting but not incredibly different from other characters I've read about. What I'm most captivated by is the implications of Sascha's handicap and how she deals with it.
I knew almost right away that her energy keeping her emotions in was the reason she couldn't do much else of value to the Psy society, and it was nice to be validated when the truth came out. Hiding the undesirable parts of yourself (masking??) is very relatable, and it was gratifying to read about Sascha accepting her gifts and reframing everything she knew into a world where she could not only survive but thrive.
