I thought this was a good werewolf story. It was well written, well edited, and had characters I could connect with. I really enjoyed reading it. I found bits of it really frustrating though. Some parts of it were exceedingly predictable. I mean who didn't see Marla coming? Who didn't want to absolutely wring Elise's neck for trusting her even a little bit? I think this was also a little unrealistic. I'm fairly sure most women wouldn't have after their first initial meetings. Same thing goes for Elise's frequent Scarlet O'hara moments. If you have something THAT important to say, let alone multiple important things to say you find a time you don't wait for tomorrow over and over again. There were an unreasonable number of interruptions. But these are just gripes really, part of the overall story, not any sort of comment on the value of the book. I got it for free and am glad to have given it a chance. I've got the sequel (The Keeping) and be reading it too.
