Play of Passion (Psy/Changeling, #9)

by Nalini Singh

A Psy/Changeling novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Shards of HopeShield of Winter, and Heart of Obsidian..."the alpha author of paranormal romance" (Booklist).
As a conflict with Pure Psy looms on the horizon, two powerful wolves fight a far more intimate war of their own …
In his position as Tracker for the SnowDancer pack, it’s up to Drew Kincaid to rein in rogue changelings who’ve lost control of their animal halves—even if it means killing those who’ve gone too far.  But nothing in his life has prepared him for the battle he must now wage—to win the heart of a woman who makes his body ignite…and who threatens to enslave his wolf.
Lieutenant Indigo Riviere doesn’t easily allow skin privileges, especially of the sensual kind—and the last person she expects to find herself craving is the most wickedly playful male in the den. Everything she knows tells her to pull back before the flames burn them both to ash…but she hasn’t counted on Drew’s will.
Now, two of SnowDancer’s most stubborn wolves find themselves playing a hotly sexy game even as lethal danger stalks the very place they call home…

I found the first half of this story boring. I had trouble getting into the plot and I wasn't convinced of Indigo and Drew as a couple. I liked them well enough individually, but I didn't think they meshed well. He seemed the goofy, all-around joker and she was so tightly wound. There were plausible reasons given for their personalities, but I still didn't think they were right for each other.

The plot involving the Counsel wasn't engaging this time around and I wish something would happen with them already. I'm getting a little tired of the mystery of the Ghost as well. Things started to pick up toward the end, but I don't think this was the best story in the series. I am looking forward to Sienna and Hawke's story.
