Wild Embrace

Nalini Singh rocks the paranormal romance genre. So, it is no wonder that getting an anthology of short stories all taking place in the Psy/Changeling world would be just what a fan would need to hold us over till the next novel comes out. Okay, let’s be real, we’d do anything for more of this world and Singh answered with four amazing shorts for us to devour.

Wild Embrace is a collection of short romantic stories of the not so well and well not so well known side characters in Psy/Changeling characters.

Echo of Silence is a romance between a telekinetic commander and a human engineer. Living on an underwater base, these two couldn’t be more different until an act of kindness brings them together.

Dorian is a love story about a shifter that learns to play. This short gives us more into the life of Doran, the shifter that couldn’t’ shift.

Partners in Persuasion brings us a romance between a dominant female shifter and a submissive male and their tenuous romance that follows their strong attraction.

Flirtation of Fate brings two strong alphas together after years of flirting on the edge of romance and anger of unfilled desire while investigating a tragic murder.

Four seductive and sensual tales of love.

I received this ARC copy of Wild Embrace from Berkley Publishing Group in exchange for a honest review.

I love everything that Nalini Singh writes! Her novellas are like a full book to me. I get all the feelings and connection that i would get from a full size book.

Echo of Silence - I loved Tazia and Stefan. I loved the time they spent together helping the village after the mud slide. It was so sad when we learned Stefan's past. How his family died in a rock slide when he was 3 or 4 and he kept trying to teleport to them but they had died :( I'm glad he brought Tazia back to her family. This story also made me excited to read about the water changelings in the next story arc!

Dorian - i didn't think i needed more from Dorian's story, but i was so wrong! I loved being in his life again. I loved seeing him when he was young. I liked how strong he was and his interactions with Lucas, Mercy and Vaughn when they were all young. I also liked the scene when Clay first became apart of their pack. I also loved when Dorian was finally able to change and he told Lucas then the rest of the pack. It was very touching! I'm so glad she added his story <3

Partners in Persuasion - i loved hearing about a dominant female and a submissive male and i also loved that it was a leopard and wolf pairing! I hope we get more of those in the next arc. I loved how Felix courted Dezi and i loved when they were in a bar fight and Felix didn't feel emasculated because she was more dominant and could handle herself. He let her fight and he had her back. Loved it!

Flirtation of Fate - I've been wondering about Kenji and Garnet since Hawke's book! I'm so glad to finally get their story! I loved the mystery even though it was kinda sad. I liked how it showed that all changelings weren't good, even in the Snowdancer pack. And i'm so glad that Kenji finally told Garnet why he broke her heart so long ago. There connection was amazing and i'm so glad they came together.

This was a get novella. I can't wait for the second story arc to start!
