Review:
Nathan and Lena have been best friends, lovers, neighbors, and now that he’s dating Armand, their friendship is shaken and fragile. How far can they go? What is right and wrong? What are Armand’s thoughts about them? Lena is confused and the sexual tension between them is inevitable. Untill she finds something about Armand that changes it all…
This story has a strong cultural element brought by the half-blooded Shape-Shifter’s Lena, Nathan and Armand. The Poly relationships between the Therians is very valid to what this title has to offer. The paranormal line is very strong and fundamental for the plot to feel real.
Shifting Passions is a very solid debut book, with consistent pacing and very hot romance. Xakara is a talented author, tidying up this story very well.
SEXUAL CONTENT: 4/5
RATING: 5/5
