Somehow the difficulty always surmounted at the last minute by some confusing technical deus ex machina. I’m such a rabid fan of these books and I would put this one up with some of my favorites (Brenna/Judd, Hawke/Sienna) but I wonder if it’s because of all the secondary stuff that I love it rather than the Riaz/Adria romance. At times I found Riaz and Adria’s relationship a touch bittersweet, but I loved the way the conflict in that relationship was resolved. He gets a skill which makes people with evil disposition attracted to him whilst also getting a skill that makes him stronger the more danger he's in.

It's not an unexpected info dump, but blended well into the story so that it does not feel out of place. I’m still just so annoyed over that book and the fact that Hawke/Sienna seem to be all over ToN is another reason I’m hesitant to read it. Thanks so much Janine and Jennie for your joint review, I really enjoyed reading what other people thought about ToN. Aaaaaanyway so the rest of this drama is dealing with the aftermath of having to deal with this whole 'baby' situation, and how everyone's lives and personalities get affected by the situation.Janine: I only remembered Riaz from Branded by Fire, Mercy and Riley’s book, but had forgotten that his romantic history was mentioned in Play of Passion (Drew and Indigo’s book) until I was reminded of it in Tangle of Need, so I can relate a little. more>> its worst form (mtl) and I f*cking loved it but now that Genesis has picked up this banger I am more than excited to see what they do with it as evident by their excellent translation resume and boy do I share their love for yanderes. In addition to the romance between Adria and Riaz, we see a lot more of Hawke and Sienna’s relationship. I found it a little odd that he wanted to know more about my mystery beau right after he told me that he wanted to divorce me. rachel: Yes, someone on Twitter, I wish I could remember who, said she’d interviewed Singh and was told the series would have thirteen books total, though there might be some other books (Stand alones or perhaps a new series?

After Adria lets him go, it seemed like Riaz did not have one thought or action that differed from previous changeling heroes. Now, my issue is not with Riaz being taller than Adria – men are usually taller than women, generally speaking. Octopus, Scheming Concubine Stepmom, Little Puppy Brother, The Felons, Missing Sister Mystery, BFF, and Gae Ddong. Daniel Pitt a smokin hot artist who meets Mi Yeong in a moment of vulnerability, and you know how that whole story tends to go. That surprised me a bit – I thought there’d been a lot of books in the series but not that many – maybe more like eight.But that’s not dominance as defined in Singh’s world, not as expressed by changeling males who are the default in this arena.

Sarah: I think if you like it, you like it – there are definitely series (and books) that work for me in spite of issues that I feel like I *should* have with them. They are both supposed to be dominants, but (and this is the case in the other books featuring dominant pairings) it’s made very clear who the alpha is. In the first book, there were very few good Psy but now we’ve met several, and it is made clear in the characters’ discussions that many, many Psy aren’t evil.The women with most of the story in this book – Adria, Sienna and Mercy—all bowed to their love interests’ wishes at times. I wish there had been less of them in TON and more thoughtful fleshing out of Adria/Riaz’s conflict.

While he is supposedly a bug that can be squashed at a moment's notice power scaling wise, his unique attribute which makes him scale according to how much danger his life is in makes him that much of a menace, much similar to Isaac from Demon Limited Hunter. This was also the first book in which the age gap in their relationship wasn’t entirely enjoyable to me but actually bugged me a little. There isn’t really anything at stake in the constant power games Singh sets up among h/h because the hero always wins. But the same demands and seductions have been done to one degree or another by every changeling male.I can see new readers being interested in this if you haven't been in this type of novel genre before.
