If werewolves are your cuppa tea you HAVE to add this book to your to-be-bought list. It fascinated me from beginning to end. Aggie meets the hero by running him down with her car. When he regains consciousness he doesn't know who the heck he is, just that his name is Michael. When Aggie learns he is going to be released from the hospital directly to the streets or a homeless shelter she feels so guilty she takes him home (she also has ulterior motives, she's a journalist/columnist suffering from writer's block and will use his recovery as a scoop). Slowly he begins to regain bits and pieces of his past and it's mostly frightening. He fears he's not human and he wills himself to forget but it's impossible with Aggie around arousing his senses, his libido and his, ummm, true self. I fully enjoyed this story. The plot was great fun, with a nice balance of lightness and angst, the hero was scrumptious and the heroine likable. I don't think I will ever tire of reading about werewolf heroes. There was an issue concerning the eventuality of children that I felt was wrapped up way too quickly but overall it's a small complaint because the story was terrific. There is just something so romantic about their mating for life that gets to me every time. This is the first book in a trilogy but it does stand alone quite nicely.
