Wild Invitation

Nalini Singh

Hachette

Otago Daily Times, 2013

Wild Invitation by New Zealand writer Nalini Singh is the latest edition to her wildly popular brand of Mills and Boon fantasy featuring a range of human and inhuman characters (think Twilight crossed with Shades of Grey).

This collection contains two new and two previously published short stories set in the psy-changeling world where humans co-exist with the amoral and emotionless Psy and the all-too passionate changelings whose animal instincts lend themselves perfectly to the lusty narrative Singh excels at. Each is told from the perspective of young changeling women who find herself pursued (or pursuing) a wild and dangerous mate, and although not to my tastes (I have trouble not laughing at most written descriptions of sex), it is sure to delight her many followers.
