Summary
Grace is obsessed with the wolves that live in the woods behind her house. There's one in particular she likes to watch and he seems to watch her back. After a senior at her school is supposedly killed by the wolves, the woods become a hunting ground. Grace knows it's her wolf that has been shot, but it's a boy named Sam who's bleeding on her family's deck. Sam is her wolf and now she needs to save Sam, not just from the gunshot wound but from turning into a wolf one more time. The one more time that might just be forever.
Critique
Sam and Grace have to face extreme obstacles to find their happy ending, but their connection feels sweet and true. The background characters lack some depth, but fans of the Twilight Series will be thrilled to find a new book to embrace. Highly recommended read.
