I decided to try this book since it was free on the Kindle.  I didn't realize how short it was.  I think I read it in an hour and a half.  The description sounded like an interesting take on a tried and true storyline of girl wolf meets wolf mate--has a few issues, threatened with death, but lives happily ever after.  The different take was that she was mute.  Except she's not mute.  She can speak a bit--ok, there are mute people who are able to articulate somewhat, but our girl can speak with an Alpha voice and force grown, mean, desperate wolves to lay down and show their belly to her.  Yeah, right.Other than a short plot about figuring out she was a wolf--and that took her only a few pages to accept--and a short threatening scene which she handled with that Alpha voice, the rest of the book was about sex.  In fact, I'm pretty sure that was the entire reason the publishing company chose to publish it--as a soft-porn venture with a little, very little, plot thrown in.  The company is Samhain.  They do have an amusing website.  Apparently you can get anything in romance that you desire.  They list categories of romance comedy, contemporary, fantasy, gay-lesbian, historical, horror (I can't imagine a horror romance.),inspirational ????, interracial, suspense, time travel, and western. Everything that is except a well-written book? I plan on checking publishing company names and avoiding anything from them in the future.
