Review: Embracing the Wolf (Ritter Werewolves)
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 09 7, 2012
Author Catherine Bybee has done an excellent job of melding the werewolf storyline into a believable, exciting and compelling short novel of about 160 printed pages. It was a bit less than a two hour read for a fast reader and sustained the tension throughout. Which is not only difficult to do, it is rarely done well. Her protagonists come to life with her smooth writing style.As both a romance and thriller it works very well. The Alpha male, which must be included in any werewolf story, is very "human." He is confident without being overbearing and shows his ability to nurture as well as defend. The Heroine is a loving single mother who puts her child first and herself second as do most mothers. She keeps her head under difficult circumstances and knows when to ask for and accept help. Good charactizaions that work very well in this novel.One of my favorites were novels lately "Embracing the Wolf" holds the reader's attention very well. The love is steamy enough to be interesting but not so overdone as to be uncomfortable. But this is a 18+ story.Karen Bryant Doering,Parents' Little Black BookMistBlueEeyore@gmail.com
