Publisher Description
Torn between 2 destinies...
Hanover Falls hasn't had a werewolf problem in over one hundred years. But when people suddenly start dying in Claire Benoit's town, panic spreads fast. At Claire's sixteenth birthday party, the gruesome killings are all anyone can talk about. Claire, however, is more interested in the fact that the gorgeous Matthew Engle keeps chatting and flirting with her as if she's the only girl there. But that night, she discovers something that takes away all sense of normalcy: she's a werewolf.
As Claire is initiated into the pack of female werewolves, she must deal not only with her changing identity, but also with a rogue werewolf who is putting everyone she knows in danger. Claire's new life threatens her blossoming romance with Matthew, whose father is leading the werewolf hunt. Now burdened with a dark secret and pushing the boundaries of forbidden love, Claire is struggling to feel comfortable in either skin.
With her lupine loyalty at odds with her human heart, she will make a choice that will change her forever....

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Johnson s debut her take on the popular werewolf lit genre glimmers with mystery and a budding romance amid Romeo and Juliet like complications. Claire is finally starting to feel like a normal teenager. It s her 16th birthday, popular kids have shown up at her pool party, and wicked cute Matthew seems to like her. Then Claire discovers the family secret she and her mother are werewolves. It s an especially inopportune revelation, since a rogue werewolf is killing people in town and Matthew s father, a member of the Federal Human Protection Agency, is leading the charge to capture and cure lycanthropes. Claire s feelings for Matthew are too strong for her to obey her mother s order to stop seeing him, and her secrets keep piling up as her full transformation approaches. With Claire s local pack on the hunt for the rogue and an innocent werewolf in danger, things accelerate quickly as the next full moon approaches. Claire s supportive relationship with Matthew is downright enviable, and her struggle to adjust and integrate the two sides of her life rounds out a satisfying story. Ages 12 up.
