Hostage to Pleasure by Nalini Singh

This is the 5th book in Singh's Psy-Changeling series and it is another winner. She has created an interesting world that continues to remain fresh. This book features another match between a male Changeling and a female Psy.

The heroine, Ashaya, is different than the other Psy heroines we've seen and she has an unusual talent concerning DNA that is essential to the story, but I've found some of the other Psy abilities like seeing the future to be more interesting. The hero, Dorian, is a sexy wereleopard who is haunted by the brutal murder of his sister by a Psy.

Nalini Singh has an amazing ability to let us feel the characters' emotions. We really feel like we know each person. That makes the tribulations they go through on their way to a HEA real edge-of-your-seat stuff. Hostage to Pleasure moves quickly with a lot of action and a lot of emotional tension. It's a very satisfying read and I am looking forward to the next in the series.

I'd rate this book 8.5 out of 10.
