In Embracing the Wolf, the second book in the Anna Avery series, Anna is dealing with new love and the new role that love brings her. See, Anna couldn't just pick any old wolf to fall in love with! No, she had to go and fall for the Alpha Male. That makes her the Alpha Female. Considering that Anna was changed just a short time ago and still hasn't mastered her own wolf powers, that's not exactly something that makes her life easier. Thankfully, she has an amazing pack willing to help her out.On top of becoming Alpha Female, Anna is trying to come to terms with the fact that she may be a Seer, a wolf able to see the past. Her friend and pack-mate, Wade, is trying to help her learn how to control this new power. As if that isn't enough for even the average werewolf to endure, Anna has to meet the future in-laws! They're not exactly ready to accept her with open arms. Anna isn't a pure-blood werewolf, which means she isn't worthy in Adam's parent's eyes.Now someone is bent on killing Anna to keep her from her new position. Basically, poor Anna is just not having a good year! She should be reveling in her newly discovered love, but instead she has to fight for her life and that of her soul-mate's!Stephanie Nelson once again makes werewolves incredibly interesting through her rich characters, approachable style and exciting plot line. I loved this book as much as I enjoyed the first one. Perhaps more, since I'm more invested in Anna's story after reading Taming the Wolf. It's a fun read, perfect for those long summer days on the beach!Review originally published on PrettyOpinionated.com
