Wild Invitation by Nalini Singh is an anthology of short stories from the Pys/Changeling Universe, using a few characters spanning from books 1 to 10. I enjoyed most of the stories, though there was one in particular that I didn't like very much

----

1. Beat of Temptation - 3 ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Tamsyn/DarkRiver healer & Nathan/DarkRiver sentinel

This was a cute story, although Nathan made me unhappy because

at one point he made Tamsyn thing that he didn't want to complete their mating bond. She went through rejection and all that pain for nothing.

The spicy scene was okay, I'll give it three 🌶️🌶️🌶️ out of five chilies


2. In Stroke of Enticement- 3 ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Annie/Human & Zack/Changeling

This was an okay story, I didn't like how

Zack askes Annie about her physical disabilities right after meeting her, that was sort of rude. I also didn't like how Annie's mother was racist and she wasn't dealt with, she was just ended up being impressed by Zack so she stopped being an asshole.

Aside from the two things, I think the story is good.

The spice was okay, I'm giving it three chilies 🌶️🌶️🌶️ out of five chilies worth of spice.

3. Declaration of Courtship - 2 ⭐️⭐️
Grace/SnowDancer Wolf  and Cooper/SnowDancer Wolf Lieutenant

I really didn't like Cooper at all.

At one point Annie's siblings accuse Cooper of being abusive and he gets angry and decides to almost physically attack them as a response. I just found him to be irresponsible and rude.

I didn't care for the spice in this one because I didn't like Cooper, so I'll give it two chilies 🌶️🌶️ out of five chilies


4. Texture of Intimacy - 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Walker/Psy and Lara/SnowDancer healer

I really loved Walker and Lara the first time I read about them, I honestly love their relationship so much so when I found out that this short story was about them, I was excited! This story did not disappoint

I really loved the spice in this short story, not only was it sexy but it was also romantic 
I'm giving it four chilies 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️ out of five chilies
