I was sucked into the story the moment a ghost was mentioned, which was page one. I've never read a book about shape-shifting werewolves before and I have to say . . . I enjoyed this very much! I liked the little things that made the characters believable such as catching scents and snarling.Melissa Snark's writing is perfectly descriptive, offering great visuals of the characters and everything that happens. I could see the monster (the child thief), and Victoria's transformation into wolf in my mind. Her battle with the monster is vivid and gruesome. Just the way I like it! I know how hard it is to write fight scenes like that and thought Melissa did an exceptional job. I love, love, love tough heroines and Victoria is the definition of tough. I gladly rooted for her!I wished for more of a back story to explain just what happened to Jack's son and her lover, and more details about the battle that killed her parents, but I didn't need those details to enjoy this story. I also know this story is a bit of a teaser for the sequel, which I can't wait to read!
