I'm really enjoying this series. I love that it started off as something that felt singular, each book a new couple and a new situation, but slowly melded into one cohesive series with recurrent characters and an over-arching situation that touched the lives of all the characters introduced.
I really enjoy how shifters are in this series. It was nice that them being their animal was just as natural as being human and I always enjoy when a shifter has control in both forms. The shifters talk about mates, which they find through this series, but for most of the books it isn't an instant thing. For many of the first series it is people who have a long standing friendship and a desire for more that become mates. In stories where this was not the case there was still an emphasis on creating a relationship outside of just lust and need and the necessary factors for staying in a long term relationship. I enjoyed the couples introduced and found that they tended to be interesting and nicely complimentary, with a few sweet surprises.
This is an intriguing little series and I am going to keep reading as I do want to know what is going to happen in this world!
