Product Description:
Hailed as a major new talent in paranormal romance, Nalini Singh takes us deeper into the world of the Psy and the changelings in her latest extraordinary novel, where a gifted woman sees passion in her future-a passion that is absolutely forbidden by her kind... Used to cold silence, Faith NightStar is suddenly being tormented by dark visions of blood and murder. A bad sign for anyone, but worse for Faith, an F-Psy with the highly sought after ability to predict the future. Then the visions show her something even more dangerous-aching need...exquisite pleasure. But so powerful is her sight, so fragile the state of her mind, that the very emotions she yearns to embrace could be the end of her. Changeling Vaughn D'Angelo can take either man or jaguar form, but it is his animal side that is overwhelmingly drawn to Faith. The jaguar's instinct is to claim this woman it finds so utterly fascinating and the man has no argument. But while Vaughn craves sensation and hungers to pleasure Faith in every way, desire is a danger that could snap the last threads of her sanity. And there are Psy who need Faith's sight for their own purposes. They must keep her silenced-and keep her from Vaughn...

VISIONS OF HEAT -Book 2 in Changeling-Psy Series
With a brilliant start to the series in SLAVE TO SENSATION - Nalini Singh, now my favorite paranormal writer, captivates by her vivid imagery and flawless narration. The unbelievable sense of prose, has you enthralled from the moment your eyes land on the very first page and you are glued to a fabulous story and characters that will stay with you for a long while.
I thought the very first in the series was absolutely brilliant - but in my opinion VISIONS OF HEAT surpasses the very first book. Unbelievably talented Singh continues to faultlessly depict a changing-psy world, making it so authentic that you feel it exists with characters that are so alive; they almost feel like real people. Not only is the storyline so engrossing that you can hardly put the book down, but you have this sense of empathy for the characters you have fallen in love with along the way.
This is the story of Faith and Vaughn. Vaughn, a changeling jaguar sentinel of the DarkRiver pack, comes in contact with Faith, an F-Psy from the NightStar clan. Faith, closely guarded all her life - and living in an isolated cabin surrounded by Psy guards, has been making predictions since she was 3 years old - predictions that the Psy dearly value, as she is worth billions of dollars for their accuracy in the business markets.
When she experiences visions of blood, death and strangulation in her sleep, she thinks they are nightmares - but shortly after her sister Marine is strangled in the same manner she has seen in her dreams. Unable to cope - as she believes she is going insane - she decides to seek the help of Sascha Duncan, a Rogue Psy (we meet Sascha in SLAVE TO SENSATION) the only person that might be able to tell her why she is experiencing these visions.
Faith is a grand heroine - appearing fragile but with tremendous inner strength, her intelligence and fortitude, coupled with a magnificent sense of loyalty make her a brilliant mate for Vaughn
Vaughn is the perfect Alpha Male. Immovable, arrogant, superior, lethal and very possessive - he relies on his animal instinct more so than any other Pack member. To Faith, he is beyond intimidating - he is dangerously fascinating. Faith can't endure physical touch as she can go into mental overload when she is touched. Vaughn is fascinated by Faith - and always keeps touching her, making her accept the sense of touch and pushing her to accept her emotions. Vaughn realizes both are mated - but for Faith - with her lack of ability to sustain touch... well... lets just say you are in for a great ride and a very intimate, sexy read!! There is such beauty in the commitment and love Vaughn feels for Faith - that she realizes that he is her salvation.
The H/H are to die for, the story has great suspense (no annoying cliffhangers), sex is steamy and the interaction from previous characters beautifully blended in the plot. Well done Nalini!

Similar to my last review, I have graded this book on the 3 top reasons we buy books like this.
1. THE STORY - I very much enjoyed this story. I am very happy to see that there is a larger story arch going on from book to book. It gives the characters purpose and helps to lay the foundation for future characters and their motivations.
2. THE CHARACTERS - These characters were so compatible. Their similarities were close enough to be obvious, but weren't so matchy matchy that you wanted to puke. I liked that their lives could merge together so seamlessly and in such an organic manner.
3. THE SEX - Ok. I know why you are reading this review. You want to know if the sex is going to be hot. And yes, it is. But I must say that the sexual tension building up to the actual act was very well written and just as much fun. It somehow conveyed that "desperately wanting" feeling you got when your high school boyfriend would sneak into your bedroom so you could have a stolen moment with out it being as silly as a 17 year old.
All in all, I really liked this book and recommend it to anyone looking for some great entertainment.

After reading Slave to Sensation several months ago, I was very pleased to be able to sit down with book 2 of the series, Visions of Heat. I love Nalini Singh's writing style and find that her books are a very quick read for me.
All of Nalini's characters are likeable to some degree or other. I really enjoy how she sets up her story arc's and the depth of interaction between Faith and Vaughn and Faith and her Father was very well done.
I really enjoy this series and the new spin it puts on an old idea. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys the supernatural genre.
