"An enjoyable werewolf romance"
In Baltimore werewolf Johnny Marshall drinks in a seedy
bar when he gets into a brawl with bikers. He wakes up in
the hospital with only pain reminding him he still lives.
However, he overhears several bikers discuss framing him
for killing one of them though he is innocent. Instead of
waiting around he flees westward changing his name to Sam
Morgan and vowing to do good deeds. Sam becomes an eco-thief causing problems for
environmental abusers. His current target is lumber baron
Wilson Woodlock who is devastating Washington State. At a
party Wilson hosts that Sam crashes, he meets his target's
daughter Olivia who somehow can sense his presence even
when he uses his werewolf powers to hide. When Sam goes
to commit an act against Wilson, Olivia and her brother
Colin catch him. They hire him to find a stolen artifact
that if not returned to their family means death for the
Wilsons. As Sam begins his assignment, he knows Olivia is
his soulmate, but to persuade her of that will prove
difficult once he reveals his true roots. This is an enjoyable werewolf romance starring two likable
protagonists though Johnny's conversion from bad dude to
heroic eco-avenger seems too quick and easy. Still the
story line is loaded with action, suspense and an
especially enjoyable romance as Sam has to find a way to
convince Olivia they belong together after he reveals his
animal nature. Sub-genre readers will appreciate this
fine paranormal tale and hope for a sequel starring an
interesting secondary protagonist. Harriet Klausner
