4.5 out of 5 stars
The Hot Zone
Dust bunnies rule! (and apparently like Halloween candy) This is another great addition to a fun series that is part of the ongoing saga that covers the past, present and future progression of humans with psychic powers. I alternate between my preferences for the various incarnations of this author’s titles but I have to admit that I have a distinct bias toward the various dust bunnies and the idea of the alien influence left behind on the planet of Harmony. I found this particular story to be more disconcerting as the contrast between MC (marriages of convenience) and CM (covenant marriages) is highlighted, but, as always, the repartee between the determined heroine and the self-deprecating hero is a wonderful facet of a creative story. The monsters that are roaming are a creepy element and the question of the alien influence on this planet adds a twist to the evolution of the humans who have found a way to survive and thrive on Harmony. I adore these stories because they combine romance, science fiction and human ingenuity in a delightful story AND they continue to gradually reveal more about the charismatic creatures who can go from cuddly chortling companion to a being that has created the reputation, “Once you see the teeth, it’s too late!”

I received a copy of this title in return for an honest review.
I love her books, I've been a fan for such a long time and the dust bunnies...omg they sound so incredibly cute. I want one.
ReplyDeleteAlas, the only dust bunnies which are propagating in my house are non-sentient and definitely NOT cute, lol. I definitely want a Lyle of my own, and would even share my candy with him. Thanks for visiting, Mary.
