Sweet Sixteen and Never Been Kissed? Maybe, but… Allie Dane, teenage Werewolf and emerging Alpha, has been tested her entire life, and always come out on top. Being the only paranormal in an all-human high school should be a piece of cake. Then the killings start, and with them emerges a familial trait Allie thought to have passed her by. Seeing visions of her classmates taken out one by one is bad enough… knowing who’s doing it is even worse. As if her plate weren’t full enough, there’s a new kind of Shifter in town and he has his sights set on Allie. He’s tall, dark, and OMG hot, and while his attentions aren’t unwanted, his motives are questionable at best. Then he looks her in the eye and says those five little words she could never “Allie, I need your help.”
What started as therapy turned into a fulltime passion for Aliya DalRae. The fictional town of Fallen Cross, Ohio, and its cast of characters, both human and paranormal, reside in her imagination, and she brings their stories of love, loss and redemption to life in her Jessica Sweet Trilogy, and The Fallen Cross Pack and Fallen Cross Legion Series. You can find Aliya on Facebook and Goodreads, or subscribe to her newsletter at http://eepurl.com/dtEWqH for twice-monthly updates, contests and more.
Fantastic new Series from one of the best!! From page one I adored the main character, Allie. Spunky and strong yet vulnerable as she attempts to find her place in the world. Allie was born a werewolf, which though it doesn’t make it easy to fit in with normal teens, she is generally able to control her inner wolf. But Allie discovers she has also inherited yet another gift/curse and needs to figure out how to handle it. Blending in with normal kids is all she ever wanted but that doesn’t seem possible for young Allie. Add into the mix a new evil which seems to have settled into Fallen Cross. Centered around Allie’s high school, it brings danger and intrigue in its wake. Allie discovers that her choices could tear her pack apart. I loved the return to Fallen Cross and enjoyed hearing about characters from previous stories. But this is an entirely new thrill ride with Jessica Sweet’s younger sister in the lead. Fantastic, fresh, and completely captivating tale. Highly Recommended!
Being born a werewolf would be hard for anyone, and Allie is finding it daunting to say the least. She is faced with issues no youngster should be faced with and having to keep her secret from the other kids is challenging and puts added stress on her young shoulders. I loved the story and hope to read more of Aliya's stories
I downloaded Envisioned, book 1 of the Growing Up Dane series, as a free ebook from Amazon. I have to admit, I enjoyed this storyline more than I expected. The characters are younger than I prefer, by the blurb caught my attention so I gave it a try. First off, Allie and the other characters were, well-drawn and complex. The story was fast-paced with plenty of surprises, and an intriguing, unexpected ending. I'll be looking for more books in this series.
