Synopsis

Born the only female in an all male race, Jessica McClain isn’t just different—she’s feared.

After living under the radar for the last twenty-six years, Jessica is thrust unexpectedly into her first change, a full ten years late. She wakes up and finds she’s in the middle of a storm. Now that she’s become the only female full-blooded werewolf in town, the supernatural world is already clamoring to take a bite out of her and her new Pack must rise up and protect her.


My Review

This has been on my Amazon wish list forever. I finally got it and now I wondered why I waited so long to buy it. It is one of my favorite books. I am a sucker for the shape shifter/werewolf stories. Especially ones where the female is a kick ass heroine. Amanda has written a wonderfully intense and action packed story. All of her characters are awesome, even the horribly bad ones. They are all creatively written full of mystery and intrigue. Jessica, is her main character, who is a tough female surrounded by males who don't treat her as fragile. Yes, she is protected but still maintains her freedom and independence. Even the males that she is constantly protected by are not overbearing, obnoxious guys who think they are a know it all. The intensity and constant action keeps you engaged as a reader and makes it terribly hard to put down.

My skin pricked and lust shot to the surface,
hot and fierce. My wolf let out a long agonized
 howl, ending in a series of short, frantic barks
as a dam inside me ruptured. Everything ached
at once. My fingertips gripped the wall tightly so
I didn't fall down as the lust wrapped around me,
tugging at my body, puring through me with it's
urgent craving.  -Jessica, Full Blooded
 
So, in a nutshell, Jessica is the only female werewolf in existence. Not only is she special, and unique, she is seen as an abomination brought to destroy the werewolves. With the help of her alpha father and fellow pack mates, Jessica tries to keep her change hidden until it can be explained by her father. Unfortunately that doesn't happen. Someone already knows about her change and now shes wanted. The one dangerous man who is paid to collect information about her, turns out to be her savior and much more. Just when she thought she only had to worry about her fellow wolves, other supernaturals want her as well. Fast paced and full of action, this book is highly entertaining and well worth the price. Enjoy!
