Talin McKade needs help. She’s even willing to turn back to her past, a past she’s tried to forget, in order to get that help. She’s dedicated her life to helping save street kids but now someone is snatching and killing them. Talin only knows one person left she can turn to, a man from her past. There’s just one problem… Clay Bennett, a DarkRiver sentinel, thinks Talin is dead. Will Clay be able to forgive Talin as his heart clamors to claim her as his mate? And just who is behind these horrific killings?

MINE TO POSSESS is the fourth book in what is simply one of the top paranormal series out there!  Nalini Singh continues to expand her world of the Psy and Changelings, with each book only adding another fascinating layer filled with equally captivating characters. The series is best read in order so that fans can see how the various pieces fit together but MINE TO POSSESS can be read as a stand alone as Ms. Singh does provide some background history. Without a doubt, the Psy-Changeling series is one that any paranormal fan should read immediately!

Nalini Singh always does a beautiful job at showing the inner heart of her characters. Talin and Clay are both tortured by the horrors of their past. Clay blames himself for not protecting Talin while Talin fears her past has permanently scarred her. Together, their love can conquer the darkness they both fear… but are they willing to give that love a chance?

Talin’s plight particularly affected me, both her past and her role helping street kids. As a social worker, I’ve worked with many people like Talin and her strength and courage to continue fighting her inner demons is commendable. She is perhaps one of my favorite heroines in the Psy-Changeling series as she truly embodies the human will to never quit fighting.
