Review

"Pancakes" is a short story of only about three pages that takes place sometime after Kiss of Snow in the Psy-Changeling series chronology and is an expanded version of a scene that was originally included in the novella "Texture of Intimacy" that features Walker and Lara. Lara awakens to the smell of breakfast cooking and finds her new mate, Walker, in the kitchen making pancakes for their kids, Toby and Marlee, after which a family breakfast ensues. This was a super-sweet, slice-of-life story for Walker and Lara that shows how well they've assimilated to family life together. The kids are adorable, having their own little personalities, while Walker and Lara prove they're not only the perfect parents, but also the perfect mates. Nalini Singh manages to infuse a decent amount of sweet romance into this brief story, too, making it chef's kiss perfection.
