At eighteen-years-old Megan is ready to find her mate and be his forever.  This is the way of her werewolf pack, and when she meets James she knows he is the one.  However, James has been hurt and controlled before and wants nothing to do with Megan.  Although there are two battles with the evil wraiths, the major plot conflict concerns whether or not Megan and James will ever fall in love and have sex.

There are grammatical errors throughout.  Megan is an immature girl who is willing to forget her own goal of going to CalTech to follow her “mate.”  She borrows a car and leaves it unlocked and with the door open in a vacant lot.  James is self-absorbed, rude, and entitled.  It was very hard to relate to the characters.  They switch back and forth from werewolf to human but more could have been done with the werewolf angle versus showing them as selfish, immature humans.  Fans of werewolf romance books may be drawn to this one, but there are better stories available This book would be for grades 10 and up..
