The Coven are the ones that create everything, and just gave me the impression that they don't give a damn to lot of humans.

They are suffering and selling their bodies also getting strong drugs, as one whore do in the streets with Pablo for example. The undercity is the true peaceful place in my view, where no humans live The Coven of three give more attention to supernatural creatures, so the humans are really screw up. And what piss me off immensity was the end, a orgy I didn't think was necessary to the story.

Was just useless, and I didn't like it. May 14, Elisa Rolle added it. The title has a double meaning: Pablo is an hustler in a futuristic world. In this apocalyptic setting, the profession of whore is centrally controlled as every other profession, but obviously is not a revered one. There are different level of prostitution, and Pablo unfortunately is on a low level, he walks the street by night.

When one of his clients expresses a bit too much of interest in him, bordering on violence, Pablo knows that it's time to change line of work.

He replies to an ad by a co The title has a double meaning: He replies to an ad by a coven of three magicians in search of a Touch: Better being an independent worker with the possibility of choice, than depending on the will of strangers night after night. And here is the second meaning of the title, since Pablo is looking for some touch, but not a physical ones, he wants a connection with someone, something that goes beyond the merely sex act.

The three of the coven are quite different: Zee is gentle and caring, always with a tender touch for Pablo; Tole is brisk and rude, not violent, but he almost seems to despise Pablo; and finally Win, the man from which Pablo wants more touch of everyone else. He can't resist to the beautiful man, but it's not only a physical reaction: Win is among the few who, seeing Pablo, are not only seeing a whore. He is actually interested in what Pablo likes and wants, and put Pablo's needs and desires in front of his own.

The story has a paranormal turn almost at the end, and maybe all the question is not so well explained. In the story there is far less sex than expected and this maybe is not even a bad thing, but above all it's not the multiple menages it was hinted in the blurb. There are only three sex scene, and one you can forget since it's Pablo's work before meeting the coven, the second is the only full and for me interesting one, and the third is more or less a making out with multiple partners but with not full sex included.

So, strange to say, the book is more my cup of tea than expected. Sep 12, Lexi Ander added it Shelves: The description for this book is misleading on so many levels. It is not a BDSM mage to the rescue story. The city Regenerie, also known as Overcity, is a utopian metroplex governed by The Powers.

Crime rate is low, cures for diseases are just around the corner and Pablo Creed is a Giver, a legal prostitute, just trying to eeck The description for this book is misleading on so many levels. Crime rate is low, cures for diseases are just around the corner and Pablo Creed is a Giver, a legal prostitute, just trying to eeck out a living, not really enjoying what he is doing or even how his life is going. All he wants is just an opportunity to be more. When Pablo is picked up by the VIP, something doesn't feel right but he rolls with it and be professional that he is.

When he walks away from the encounter he knows that he has only a short time to find a way out of his current employment with the Giver Agency and the only way to do that is to find another job immediately or to leave the city. Answering an employment ad for a Touch for a coven in Under City, Pablo can only hope that this will be his ticket out of the Givers Agency and away from the VIP who can get his way.

But did Pablo jump from the frying pan into the fire? Now he struggles with wants and desires that he hasn't had before, hasn't allowed himself to have before. His mere presence sends the whole coven in turmoil exposing an emotional vulnerability that he wasn't aware he had. Now the question becomes will Pablo stay and weather the storm brewing in the coven or is he too emotionally raw and leave the coven and the city to find a new beginning.

The beginning was a little choppy for me but smoothed out as I came to understand the rules of the world that Snow built. There are many unanswered questions at the end of this, lucky for me that all four books are already out. I really liked the world building, but it was like it was crammed in too little space. The world where Pablo, the main character, lives is very complex: Everything is almost perfect, but there are bad things happening in that world: When Pablo decides to take the chance of a different job in the undercity to escape from his sadist client, he meets three magicians, the Coven of the Three.

He should help them spark their magic especially with his sexual energy, but he is immediately attracted to one of them, Win, causing a bit of trouble in the Coven. The Coven of the Three are more than magicians and I liked their mixed and imbalanced nature. Only at the end of the book, when they reveal their true identities, it becomes a little clearer why they need Pablo: I think it was a very interesting setting, but maybe because it's the first book of the series, there was so much information to process that I was confused and a little perplexed for a lot of time.

Apr 29, Natsroshan rated it really liked it Shelves: Nice story with an interesting "utopian" universe am i creating a new word again? Too bad some great aspects of the story were not fully exploited. A real 3,5 but i'll put 4 because i really liked Pablo's character. Jan 09, Lily rated it really liked it Recommended to Lily by: I can't believe I've had this book in my TBR for so long without reading it. I really enjoyed it and look forward to reading the rest of the series. Pablo is an amateur poet, as well as a bisexual whore, who is endangered of being assigned to a sadistic VIP.

He applies for a new position as a Touch for a set of three alters, he doesn't expect the attraction to Win. I really enjoyed this story, Pablo was put into a situations that he didn't fully understand but he did the best he could do in the situations that the had been put in.

He stuck up for himself and didn't allow others to walk over him. I was expecting this to be menage, but there w Pablo is an amateur poet, as well as a bisexual whore, who is endangered of being assigned to a sadistic VIP. I was expecting this to be menage, but there wasn't any of it in this story, not sure if it will happen in the later stories or not. Great quick read that was fun. Jan 06, Ayanna rated it really liked it Shelves: Then again, Snow tends to be one of the better authors of the genre.

I thought the universe was actually quite interestingly constructed, because there really does seem to be a true utopia, but utopia in the sense that there's equilibrium. The character creation wasn't bad, although I thought Tole got oddly I actually quite liked the moral complexity with the main "Big Bad" of this book. While I thought this installment wasn't bad, I don't entirely know if I'm interested in reading on.

There was a very clear series seed posed, but I felt like I was more interested in seeing what happened with the four of them together, as was implied for most of the story.

That had some interesting potential that seems mostly ignored. Feb 03, Jordi rated it liked it. I'm not the biggest fan of paranormal mainly due to the large amount of it that is available but this is a good starter. It features a character who's trying to get by but needs a better gig who finds himself taking a shot at a job for a coven of three rather mysterious but hunky men. The fantastic job requires him to help build sexual tension but he can't keep his eyes off of Win, the most flirtatious and captivating of the bunch.

It's a solid story, but the universe is a bit of a mish mash of I'm not the biggest fan of paranormal mainly due to the large amount of it that is available but this is a good starter. It's a solid story, but the universe is a bit of a mish mash of different magical themes with no central focus.

It's still a good love story, and the characters are interesting enough to get you by. I'm definitely interested in reading on to the next of the series to find out how the rest find their love. Sep 15, Violet rated it liked it Shelves: This is more of a scifi fantasy mystery type of a book. The word building is fantastic. There are two main words in this book the human world above where everything looks futuristic and the Supernatural beings below or underground where everything looks magical.

However the emotions and the evolution of relationships is somewhat lacking. I would like that the author explain more what attracted Pablo, the protagonist, to Win aside from that he is drop dead gorgeous. There is no mention on the in This is more of a scifi fantasy mystery type of a book. There is no mention on the inner attributes that attracted them to each other. This is an ok book to read. Its neither bad or good. Jan 20, Meggie rated it really liked it. I really liked this first book.

We get a glimpse of something new, something fresh. The starting plot of this series is totally interesting and it did keep me fully focused on the story. Identifiant Mot de passe. Je suis en train de lire.
