Slave to Sensation (Psy-Changeling #1) by Nalini Singh

Review:
Myth: 3.5/5
Opposites attract in this romance focused on the ‘unfeeling’ Psy and the hot blooded shifter. I enjoyed the play on these tropes in that the character’s aren’t as opposite as they think, diving in and dealing more with the nature of the Psy and expectations from the race. Sashca has spent her whole life trying to mold herself to meet Psy expectations and what starts as a business deal with the Changeling Alpha builds to make Sascha question everything she’s known.
Magic: 4/5
The story introduces us to a vast world of humans, Psy and Changelings. The Changelings are shifters, and I loved that the initial focus was on a feline pack instead of lupine. The Psy were so fascinating, adding that clinical, unfeeling nature to the warmth of shifters. So much to play with in the magic available to each race, I can’t wait to experience more.
Overall: 3.5/5
Slave to Sensation was a breathtaking introduction to the rich world of the Psy and Changelings. The future Bay Area, California setting was so lush and beautiful. I couldn’t get it out of my mind for days after.
