Every time...I swear Stacey knows how to make me fall in love with male characters from the first minute they are introduced.  Kyden definitely stole my heart and it even helped on what he was wearing or lack of wearing.  He also had a way with the sword.  Oh boy...he definitely was my FAVE character in "Werewolves Be Damned".  *sigh*Darn you, Stacey, now I have yet another male character you have written that I wish was real in person and has been added to my hottie list."Werewolves Be Damned" is a Urban Fantasy Romance that takes you into the Otherworld where if you see yourself confronted with a Guardian...you might as well be prepared for a butt whooping.Nexi Jones has found out through a horrific event that she is part witch and part guardian.  Now she must train to become a guardian and hopefully get her witch powers later on.  Her adopted parents were killed by a werewolf and she is determined to revenge their death.  First though, she must prove she can become a guardian and the sexy Kyden will help her with her training.Of course, Nexi and Kyden are having difficulties on keeping their training to just training and hiding their feelings for each other.Both Kyden and Nexi must find out why there are more killings in the human world and why otherworld creatures are doing them.When they do find out who is behind it all, it becomes not only a the Guardians job to find out how to stop the person, but to protect Nexi who maybe the target of it all.Stacey Kennedy gives you, Nexi, who is one kick-butt female half-breed who can hold her own and she is matched with one of the elite guardians, Kyden who is hard to not look at, especially when he's fighting.This book is full of action, heartache, and romance that will have you wanting the next installment right away.I loved the premise of the storyline and had a hard time putting down the book because of it. These were not some otherworld creatures to mess with. Nexi was one female, who I was even scared of at times.  She put herself in so many predicaments and did not listen and I think I did not click with her like I wanted to due to her getting herself into those predicaments.  I loved me some Kyden though.  Oh....if anything would have happened to him, I would have screamed.Stacey definitely knows how to make your heart stop due to certain events and also make you heat up as well.  The sexual tension between Kyden and Nexi made me feel it and in my head I was telling them to jump each others bones already.I look forward to the next installment and let's hope I get some more Kyden.I give this book 4.5 full moons and highly recommend it to urban fantasy and paranormal romance readers out there.
