Irish born Liam Morrissey is a feline shifter (some kind of Fae cat cross-breed) and the go-to guy for the clan. I liked Liam from the first sentence he uttered. He is beyond contrary but in a nice Irish brogue kinda way. He's immediately intrigued with human lawyer, Kim Frasier, though relations with humans is frowned upon. He's instantly protective and overly friendly but then again all shifters are very huggy kind of people. I also liked Kim she's the lawyer trying to get another shifter out of jail for a murder which she is convinced he didn't commit. She is relentless in the face of Liam's evasions and doesn't give a damn about what Fergus's wants (he's the head of the pride).

I liked the world building as it's a really different take on shifters integrating with humans. They are seriously oppressed and have to wear what amounts to a slave collar. They cannot have current up-to-date cell phones (only outdated ones), can't have cable, can't even go to college - well they can go but they can't graduate. Wouldn't want the shifters to be smart enough to over take the humans now would we? Well written, fast paced and the sex scenes (and there are many of them) are HOT!!! Jennifer Ashley doesn't disappoint.
