#BLAST and #REVIEW: Under Her Skin by Margo Bond Collins

 

About Under Her Skin She's lucky he's a charmer… Lindi Parker works hard at being human, not an easy task for a weresnake. She has no desire to search for others like her—until a new case changes everything. When Lindi learns that she she's not the only shapeshifter in the world, she realizes she might be next on a killer's list. In order to save herself and the abused children she works with, she will have to team up with Dr. Kade Nevala, a member of the shifter tribe responsible for eradicating weresnakes—and the most attractive man Lindi's ever met. Even more terrifying, she’ll need to embrace her serpent side, a choice that has enormous consequences for Lindi, and for everyone around her.

My Rating: 4 1/2 stars

My Review: I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I believe when people think of paranormal romance they think vampires, werewolves, shifters, fairies, etc. A few years ago, I came across a shifter series that I was enamored of because it had shifters beyond werewolves. This new series.....this blows it completely out of the water!
We meet Lindi, a snake shifter (have you ever come across another series with a snake shifter as the main character?!) who is hiding in plain sight in society, raised by a human couple who have shown her the easiest path to a "normal" life is to blend in, to hide who she really is. Lindi is a great character, strong willed, and yet soft. Then she meets Kade....
Kade, a shifter as well, but again, I've never seen this kind of shifter in another book. And this is where the tension begins between the two characters....do they kiss each other or kill each other?
The writing is great, the story moves along at a quick pace, easily letting me finish it in a few days. My absolutely favorite part is how biologically precise the author got when describing the ways Lindi used her shifter abilities in the different scenes.
This is a great series and I can't wait to see how it progresses.
