Review of Salve to Sensation by Nalini Singh

Slave to Sensation by Nalini Singh
Book 1
Psy-Changeling Series
The Psy are known to be icily controlled, inhumanly practical and impossible to push to violence.  Psy’s feel nothing.  Not rage, not jealous, not envy, not happiness and certainly not love.
The Changelings are shape shifters, completely and utterly devoted to their family and clan. They will protect and love their clan above all else.
Sascha Duncan as always known that she was different than the others.  Broken.   Flawed.  As Psy Sascha has always been taught not too feel any emotions.  EVER!  So she has hidden her flaws all her life.  If anyone in the Psy community finds out what is wrong with her they will surely put her to death.  Sascha is starting to wonder if she can hide much longer.
Lucas Hunter is the Alpha leader of the DarkRiver Clan.  As the leader his job is to protect everyone in his clan, but he has failed yet again to protect the ones he loves.  One of Lucas’s young female pack mates has been kidnapped and murdered.  But before Lucas can find the murderer another young girl has been kidnapped from the neighboring clan.  The DarkRiver Clan has vowed to find the girl before she meets the same fate as their own pack mate did.  But will they get there in time or will this start a war?
The Psy’s and the DarkRiver Changeling Clan have never worked together before.  But with a housing shortage they changelings approach the Psy’s with a business opportunity that they can’t pass up.  Working together is not going to be easy for Sascha or Lucas.  Sascha had never been around changelings let alone work closely with one, but she has been chosen to oversee the project.  Lucas knows that he must get close to the Psy to try to get what he wants, but how can he trust the Psy?
Will Lucas and Sascha be able to put aside their differences and work on this project or will the secrets that both are carrying destroy everything?
My thoughts:
I was in love with Sascha and Lucas from the very beginning. I loved the way that Lucas pushes Sascha’s and he sees that little crack in her armor.  Once this happens Lucas won’t stop until he sees what is beyond the cold, unfeeling allure that Sascha tries to portray.  I enjoyed the struggle that Sascha has to go through to understand the new world around her and to come to grips with her feelings. 
Lucas is the rough, tough, and the epitome of an alpha, but is so patient and loving with Sascha, it almost breaks your heart.
Both Lucas and Sascha come to grip with the fact that things are not always as they seem.
And I will admit I did get a little tear in this book.
So the only bad thing I can say about the book was that I figured out who the bad guys was pretty early on in the book. 
I am truly looking forward to reading the rest of the books in this series. There are so many back characters, that I need to know what happens to them too.  Plus I want to learn more about what happens Lucas and Sascha.
