The one thing is hers and makes sense is her radio dj gig that becomes a show about preternatural creatures, and as it grows, helps Kitty to find her sense of self and meaning in life. She avoids going to family get-togethers because of fear that the wolf would emerge. When the book starts, her parents don't even know she's a werewolf. She became a werewolf under some pretty awful circumstances, and has lingering trauma over that. Kitty is still trying to deal with her dual selves, as a werewolf, and as a human. That's why I could really identify with Kitty's situation. I tend to be a loner because I don't like doing things because they are expected of me by others, and not because I want to.

I didn't care much for the way the pack controlled Kitty's life. The description of werewolf pack dynamics kept my attention. She has to come into her own and into the realization that she can make it on her own, and that she doesn't need the pack so much that she can deny her sense of self. Kitty is the wolf of lowest status in her pack and complete submissive when the story starts. She's a regular girl, who happens to be a werewolf. Kitty is not the usual kickbutt heroine who can handle whatever life throws at her. This was an interesting read that takes a different path for the urban fantasy heroine.

That's right, our alpha is a bully who beats up women and has the right to have sex with any member of the pack that he wants, even though he has a mate.Īfter reading this, all I have to say is 'Come back, snowflakes! All is forgiven!' She also gives him half of every paycheck because he doesn't work. She is the lowest pup on the totem pole and is super excited when the alpha of the pack rapes her after beating her up because she is so happy to have his attention. She is a complete coward who is constantly whining (literally - like a dog whines), cowering, shaking in fear, and hiding behind someone stronger than herself. And, maybe, for once, you would like to read the story of the loser of a werewolf pack. If you are tired of reading shifter books about the alpha who is noble, strong, and kind. If you want to read a story where the 'hero' is a weak, submissive, powerless lackey. If you hate special snowflakes who are always so good at everything, and so strong, and have awesome powers.
