Great fast-moving story with character depth
While i haven't read all of D.J. Heart's books (yet), this was one of my faves. Relationship building was great and sex scenes were hot as usual. As a horror fan also, I really enjoyed getting to see the werewolves actually be werewolves and cause some damage. Violence wasn't overly graphic, but it was there to help resolve the story.
Some of the reviewers are saying that these werewolves are nicer to their new pack mate than in other books by D.J., but I think that was purposeful in order to show both sides of their personality and make the characters deeper. How they deal with their pack and how they deal with outside threats are entirely different. Just because they're capable of violence doesn't mean that they have to crave it in their everyday lives.
Overall, it's a great book that I'm sure I'll be reading again soon.
