Phoenix (Online Elf) | 4358 comments  Play of Passion, by Nalini Singh

In his position as tracker for the SnowDancer pack, it's up to Drew Kincaid to rein in rogue changelings who have lost control of their animal halves- even if it means killing those who have 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.

Lietenant 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 hot, sexy game even as lethal danger stalks the very place they call home.

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments Just started this. Not thrilled about Indigo's rejection of Drew; thought it was a little harsh. And what in the world is up with Councilor Henry Scott & Shoshanna? World Domination?

Susan (susayq ~) (susayq) | 6062 comments About Henry and Shoshanna, yes. That is exactly what I think. I've felt that way for a couple of books.

I also thought it was rather harsh. And wowza! I knew Henry (and Shoshanna) were up to something, but (view spoiler) I didn't expect that!


~Leslie~ (akareadingmachine) | 845 comments I'm always out of sync with this - it makes me crazy. I'm reading this in November. Y'all are killing me!!


message 25: by Susan (susayq ~), Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Susan (susayq ~) (susayq) | 6062 comments They're going to kill me with their noncommunication of what they're really wanting and feeling. And I just got to where Maria shows up on the camping trip and all but pounces on Drew. Is it too much to hope that Indigo "accidently" hurts her?


Lauren (laurenjberman) 26% in and I am not feeling Indy and Drew's romance.
Sienna and Hawke on the other hand...


message 27: by Susan (susayq ~), Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Susan (susayq ~) (susayq) | 6062 comments I like that they're friends first and foremost. Indy is driving me crazy though. I want to beat her.

As for Hawke and Sienna, oh my gosh! They scorch the pages they're on.


message 28: by Susan (susayq ~), Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Susan (susayq ~) (susayq) | 6062 comments I'm a little confused. I'm at 56% and (view spoiler) I guess that wasn't resally a spoiler. We knew it was going to happen LOL anyway, at first Indy was balking at the thought of them being together cause she didn't think he was dominant enough. Right? Now she's going on in her head about him bring a dominant possessive male and she doesn't like it. Can someone explain how and why her thoughts changed? I don't get it unless she is just looking for an excuse to not be with him.

Susan I had the same problem when I was reading , but you'll understand later why she is like this , it is explained really good in the next book I think!

Lauren (laurenjberman) It is confusing Susan. She runs very hot/cold, which I cannot stand.

I get that it has something to do with her aunt, who it seems is a dominant female in a relationship with a submissive male who is passive/aggressive and treats her badly. Well, I guess I will find out soon enough.

I agree and because she's "confused" she's being mean to Drew.

Gisela (chicadorlando) | 4022 comments What on earth is this about the disparity of their positions? Wasn't it mentioned early on that because of Drew's position as tracker he wasn't exactly in the pack's hierarchy? That Indigo isn't really his superior given that he answers directly to Hawke?


Lauren (laurenjberman) He is not an "official" member of the pack hierarchy as his role as tracker is not widely known, which makes it easier for him to do his job. Most pack members see him as laid back and easy going and so does Indy until she gets to know him better.
Also he is 4 years younger than her. For these reasons, she perceives of him as less dominant than she is. She needs to come to terms with the fact that he is just as dominant as her.


Denise Snider (sasigrrl) Just finished this. Can't say it was my favorite book out there, but was somewhat entertaining.


message 35: by Susan (susayq ~), Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Susan (susayq ~) (susayq) | 6062 comments By the end of the book, Gisela, she learns that Drew hasn't reached his full potential for dominancy. I wonder how she'll deal with the fact that he may very well end up more dominant than her?

Denise, this wasn't my favorite overall story in the series cause I had a hard time with Indy's hot and cold treatment of Drew (however I loved the background story of the Psy). But I have to say, Drew is my favorite hero of the series. He was fun and playful and dominant and very romantic and sexy. I don't think Indy deserves him.


~Megan~ (megadee) I loved Drew so much, Susan! He really made the book for me. I dealt with Indy, but fell hard for Drew.

Susan (susayq ~) (susayq) | 6062 comments Gah! Yes, Megan! Drew is easily in my top 5 book boyfriend list!

Gisela (chicadorlando) | 4022 comments I liked it but didn't love it. My main issue was Indigo.


Ren Puspita (renpuspita) Do anyone love the scene when Drew ask forgiveness to Indigo? I think that's so cute! And why my boyfriend can't do the same? *sigh*


message 41: by Susan (susayq ~), Moderator (new) - rated it 5 stars

Susan (susayq ~) (susayq) | 6062 comments Ren, I don't know how Indy didn't melt when he asked for frogiveness. I would have several times over LOL


Lauren (laurenjberman) Drew definitely saved the book for me but Judd is still my favorite.

Susan (susayq ~) (susayq) | 6062 comments Did you guys see this comment???

Do we get to see more of the Black Edge wolf pack in the next book? & what is Selenka Durev's link to Kaleb

As I said, I'm not talking about Psy/Ch #12 yet.

Selenka is alpha of the dominant changeling wolf pack in Kaleb's region.


Does that mean Kaleb's book is next?????

no she's not giving anything away. She leaves everything for the readers to interpret and as she said radio silent on book 12#

ShoSho  (shoshost) | 12263 comments I've been reading her answers so far , there is no one epsilon of new information in it, have you read it?
