we first met Pax in book 1 and I really liked him in that one, he was just so quiet and shy. In this one we get to see him get together with his mate. Now while I still like Pax in his book the thing that drove me almost insane was Gigi, Remy's mate from book 1, he was so hyper and over the top that I wanted him to get blasted out of the nearest airlock. My biggest problem was that Gigi insanity was catching and we got this whole debacle of the slugs. It may have been set up as a funny situation to make the reader laugh but for me it went from funny to farce in two seconds flat. So all in all this one was a disappointment and not due to the protagonists but the secondary characters. I just hope that this turn in the feel of the story is an anomaly and not the tone for the rest of the series!! The second volume not only adds to the world building that the first one started, it was also outrageously funny. It reads like a parody of many a science fiction series, whether on TV or in a book. The two main characters already appeared in the first book, and a few more appear; I am sure they will get their own story soon – I am definitely curious how this is going to progress. The storyline spanning across the series doesn’t do much in this book, which was fine, since everyone was busy hunting slimy worms.Pax is super cute, has blue skin and is a master at misunderstanding others. He is also desperately looking for a home but scared to death of trusting anyone. As he works through his issues, now that he has found his mate, he also manages to befriend Gigi (from book 1), hunt the worms (despite the fact he is terrified of them) and get into more trouble than seems possible.Colt, the hawk shifter, takes a while to figure out Pax, but once he does, there is no stopping him. His constant need to ‘reclaim’ Pax, just to see if his mate is okay, made me laugh. His patience with Pax was wonderful, and the way he brings laughter back into his mate’s life made me smile.These two are another winning team. They made just not each other laugh, but me as well. Their need to 'reclaim' each other after each scary episode made for some very hot action between the sheets. If you like shifter stories, sci-fi tales, or a combination of the two, and appreciate a hot alpha male making his quirky happy, you will like this book. I did, and definitely look forward to the next one.
