Publisher's Summary

Rowan Sinclair has trained for a life in the shadows. As a member of the Guild, she's vowed to mercilessly hunt werewolves or die trying. But when one approaches her, claiming to know her missing father's fate, she decides to do the unthinkable - work with one of the very monsters she's sworn to destroy.

Dean Mason is a man living with a curse, doing whatever he can to keep the beast inside from sating its bloodlust under the light of the full moon. When a chance meeting offers a tantalizing glimpse of a potential cure, he'll do anything to end the nightmare.

Now destiny has united these two predators, each possessing the key to something the other desperately needs. Their partnership will lead to either their salvation or mutual destruction in this urban fairy tale where there's no such thing as happily ever after.

too predictable

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Poor on voices. Little true emotion, too dramatic

disappointment

Any additional comments?

Rick Gualtieris Bill books were great. Good story line with humor and people you learned to like. This one was pathetic.

Found a new series and cant wait for book 2!

Love the book! The story was way more involved than I expected! It was well thought out and well written! Being a fan of Rick's I am always eager to find new books by him. This one did not disappoint! Now If I could find a way to ask him to work faster so I can have book 2 without sounding like his family should always come second I would! LOL

*eagerly awaiting the next chapters*

A welcome start for my journey into Urban Fantasy

Josh here

So, let me preface this review with the fact this is not my typical choice of genre. I am generally a post-apocalyptic, sci-fi, space opera, and LitRPG fan. I am an avid fan of Rick’s work and, as such, had to give this one a shot. I was not disappointed with this story, given that I wasn’t sure what the genre entailed. I was drawn into Rowe’s character and found myself rooting for her at various points throughout the story.

The writing in this book was great and provided for really well-developed characters. The characters were so well developed that I found myself with a deep-seated anger for one of them in particular. This character was Caine. He was definitely a piece of work and I felt bad each time Rowe had to interact with him.

I am not sure what it is with the books I choose, but if there is a Cooper in a story, the situation never ends well for him. This held true in this story.

With all of that said, I am anxious to find out when book two is due out. I want to know what was witnessed in the final scene of the book. I want to see what the future has in store for Strike’s pack.

For my first journey into the genre, I have absolutely no qualms giving this a 5/5, especially given that I wasn’t sure what to expect. Ruby and Rick have a great series here. Mrs. Kaplan did a great job bringing the characters to life in this series.

can't wait to see where this goes.

a new spin on hunters and werewolves. I really enjoyed it which is funny because these are not my normal types of books.

So good!

I'll admit to worrying about this series. As a diehard Tome of Bill fan, I wondered if it could possibly compete, or if I would be disappointed. I'm ecstatic to tell everyone that it's completely awesome! I'm just as entranced by Rowan and Dean's stories as I am with all of the other beloved, well-read series in my library! Shout-out to the narrator, who was awesome, even with the growly werewolf guys! Urban fantasy at it's best!

A good listen

I normally listen to comedy and autobiographies but thought I would give the audio book of one of my favourite authors a go.
Rick Gaultieri has managed to capture my imagination and my attention for long periods of time with this enchanting listen. if I had the time I would have listened in one go.

I highly recommend Lycan Moon.
