Shattered Blue is Starwood's debut novel.  I am not usually drawn to suspense but the craft with which Starwood weaves Shane (Shannon) MacKinnon's story had me by the arm from the first.  It begins with the female heroine's lungs grasping for breath, her arms pumping and quads screaming... I took up the slack through the rest of the story with my heart racing, my teeth gritting and  naughty my bits pulsing when Matt walked in my life – for that is exactly how I felt – tied to those pages by Starwood's storytelling ability.  Jordan's intentions gave me a few nasty twists and turns that I didn't expect and I found myself grinding out loud, "no, no, no Shane it isn't a coyote!!!!"  This is an author I am going to watch.  She has expanded my reading tastes by leaving me hungry for more.  This is a definite Petrarch Must Read.
