About the author

Jeanette Battista graduated with an English degree with a concentration in medieval literature which explains her possibly unhealthy fixation on edged weapons and cathedral architecture. She spent a summer in England and Scotland studying the historical King Arthur, which did nothing to curb her obsession. To satisfy her adrenaline cravings—since sword fighting is not widely accepted in these modern times—she rode a motorcycle at ridiculously high speeds, got some tattoos, and took kickboxing and boxing classes. She gave up the bike when her daughter came along, although she still gets pummeled at the gym on a regular basis.

When she’s not writing or working, Jeanette spends time with family, hikes, reads, makes decadent brownies, buys killer boots, and plays Pocket Frogs. She wishes there were more hours in the day so she could actually do more of these things. She lives with her daughter and their ancient, ill-tempered cat in North Carolina.

[Breanna Brown · Rating 2 out of 5]

I decided to lower the rating for a couple reasons. So many facts were repeated over and over, more times than needed. I also thought that much of the unquoted sentences could've actually been better as dialogue. In addition to some grammar/punctuation issues, that made it hard to read. Overall, it moved pretty slowly. BUT, that doesn't mean that I hated it. The characters could've popped right out at me from the pages. I got to know them really well. I think my favorite female character was Laila, and my favorite male character was Finn. He was hilarious! And the world of 'weres' was very creative. I also loved that Jeanette Battista wasn't afraid to address tough issues, like (VERY) dysfunctional families. When it came down to the meat of the plot, there were some moments that blew my mind(I can't mention them because I don't want to give anything away).
