Camille and her guardian, Dr. Bennett, hunt and study werewolves. It is an interest that was shared by her father until it killed him 6 years earlier.

They hunt werewolves.When unwitting victim, Nathaniel Strider, wanders into one of their full moon pursuits, Camille and Dr. Bennett believe they have found a specimen for their study.At first when I saw this book my kindle recommended it to me. (I worship that thing so how could I disobey what it wishes me to read.) The topic seemed almost completely cliche to me. Werewolves. What
I have mixed feelings about this book. I feel like the idea of this book was a little better than it's execution. Not to say that the writing was bad, per se. Parts of it had me really glued to the pages and it got more interesting to me the farther along I got. It's just that while I liked it, I'm not sure if I liked it enough to want to read the rest of the series. Perhaps it's the YA aspect of it that kept me from being as interested in it was I wanted to be. Then again, the ending sort of
(This was my first ever review so please be kind to it thank you)After reading this, Tess Oliver pretty much became my favourite Author. Her writing is beautiful and compels you to read more of Camille's story and for once, I even enjoyed the romance!

I would like to start off this review with an apology: I misjudged this book harshly even before I had read it since (a) the excerpt I read reminded me of too many paranormal YA novels with flat heroines and domineering love interests, (b) it is a book about werewolves, who are almost as overused as vampires by now, and (c) it is an indie book (and I have a love/hate relationship with indie books since they fall into one of three categories -- brilliant, predictable, or just plain awful). I
Worth so much more than the 99 cents I paid for it. Wow. In the beginning, it seemed this story and I would not be friends. The language seemed a little forced and then...enter Nathaniel Strider and I don't know, I guess his charming smile and roguish manner blinded me as well. Love, love the romantic tension and the depth of character and the strong sense of place. Tess Oliver really took me there and didn't need wordy prose to accomplish the task. Yea, I had some qualms but they were minor in
