This is another of those books I read in one sitting. It's what I classify as a 'page turner' to be sure. I found myself wanting to know more about these characters and the challenges they faced.I've always been a fan of shape-shifter stories. This was, of course, a book with shifters, but it was also much more. There was a bit of lore in the book regarding Native Americans that I found very interesting to read. I found myself drawn into the story from the first page.My only quibble with the story is that I'd have liked a bit more information about the background of the characters. I felt like we didn't really get to see much of Nolan in his role as a police officer with the 'humans' he worked beside.I found the concept of mixing with the world of humans to be very interesting. I also very much enjoyed the concept of the characters doing so much to protect those they considered their own.Nolan was a true Alpha Male in every sense of the word. (My favorite kind, I admit) but the heroine, Alex, was no one to sneeze at either. In her own way, she was just as strong as he was.I can't wait to read more in this series. The book didn't end on a major cliff-hanger, something else I really appreciate.Ms. Bushman has woven an engaging story with an ageless plot done with a totally new twist to keep the writing fresh and entertaining. She's a new face in the writing game, and I'm pleased to have been one chosen to review her debut novel. Expect great things from her. She's an up and comer that I think will do very well.I was given a copy of this novel for review via THE KINDLE REVIEWSHope Welsh, THE KINDLE REVIEWS
