Oh my. I only finished this one because it ended before I realized I was near the end. The whole story came off as rushed and the product of a bunch of loose ends that were strung together in order to clean out a few files on the drive. Not what I was looking for in shifter romance, and less than I expect from Dawn Steele. That said, I will continue to follow her releases and indulge my shifter fantasies.

Not to my liking

Although well written, this story just wasn't to my liking. I just couldn't get into it and found myself paging through it just to get to the end, hoping it would get better.

Left me hanging

While this was a good story it just left me feeling like it wasn't enough. That's how I felt. Empty. Then you get to the end and there is a cliffhanger. Well I guess I will wait again.

Interesting tale

I loved this interesting shape shifter tale. This was a different twist then I have seen before. I liked the story line but it needed something. I. Am not quite sure what though.

I couldn't finish this one.

I felt like I was reading something a teen had written. I just couldn't get more than half through this one.

Unique

I enjoyed the back ground story on this one, but all the same it was a little intense when it came to the murder.
