Review: Nix

@candaceblevins Finally the review is out on Nix - deer flaunts tail at wolf #bookreview

Nix by Candace Blevins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A doe and wolf cross paths in the woods... does the doe run for her life or does she eagerly spread her legs to be eaten by the big, bad wolf? Ms. Blevins is my drug dealer of choice. I go to her for hits of erotic rough sex perpetrated by sexy alpha males. Nix is no exception.

Nix is a wolf who is new to the Chattanooga RTMC chapter. He is former military with no criminal record. He is ideal for running the RTMC's gun shop. When an Olympic athlete he's been a fan of dashes into the store, he's mesmerized. Tippy is trying to start a new chapter in her life. Instead of shooting guns, she's customizing them. Who knew there was such a demand for after market changes?

What I liked most about this story is how Ms. Blevins takes part of the deer traits and merges them into the human-side of Tippy. I love how Tippy can freeze just like deer freeze. And it is interesting to see just how much a shifter retains of their animal self in human form. Nix is the typical wolf-shifter who is both predator and protector. Their interaction is amusing and sexy hot. Their chemistry is spot on and the way their relationship develops is fabulous. The character development is what pulls me into this story.

From an erotic perspective, it is Ms. Blevin's attempt again at going vanilla. I am filled with mirth at her constant attempt to vanilla-ize her books for mainstream erotic readers. This book isn't that kinky but it isn't exactly vanilla either. What it is, is hot primal sex with a dash of sweetness. I like it! For those who want a good erotic read, Ms. Blevin's paranormal series is a winner. For those who are used to Ms. Blevin's hardcore BDSM books, this may be a little too fluffy for you.

This tale of predator and prey carries a delicious hunt and chase undercurrent. The story, sex and characters make this a page turner. Recommended for paranormal romance readers who enjoy bad boy motorcycle guys who have hearts of gold.

* Arc given for an honest review. Review is a tad late.
