Psy-Changeling, Book #1
Heat Factor: They both think they’re having sex dreams about each other, but it’s actually real
Character Chemistry: It’s always fun when the protagonist knows fated mates is a thing but has no idea how that manifests and it takes a while for everyone to figure it out
Plot: She’s trying to avoid being lobotomized because she has feelings, he’s trying to hunt down a serial killer, they’re fated mates
Overall: Nalini Singh is a queen, and I shouldn’t start a 19 book series right now, but I’m hooked
Two Plus One, Book #1
Heat Factor: Definitely steamy, but not over the top
Character Chemistry: I was most invested in the relationship between Justin and Antonio, but Emily building relationships with the two men was probably actually better constructed

Overall: Come for the menage, stay for the romance
