Synopsis:
It's not easy being a girl. It's even harder when you're the only girl in a family of werewolves. But it's next to impossible when your very existence spells out the doom of your race... Meet Jessica McClain -- she just became part of the pack.
In the vein of Kelley Armstrong and Patricia Briggs, a new urban fantasy that rewrites the werewolf myth...
My review:
I loved this book. It kept me on the edge of my seat. I stayed up way into the night reading it, when I really should have been sleeping. 4 A.M. is not an appropriate bedtime for anyone. I loved the characters (even the ones I hated) and thoroughly enjoyed following them through their challenges. I became part of the story at some point although I cannot for the life of me figure out exactly when that happened. I was overjoyed with the way the story and characters evolved. I have one complaint and one complaint only... It. Just. Ends. No resolution or even partial resolution. It just stops, now I understand that this would be a great thing for a cliffhanger or the beginning of a series, which I am sure this is, but you need some kind of resolution. Even if it is just a teaser for the next book. Cliffhangers lead us to the next book. This just stopped. Kind of like this review.
