From the moment Mia Young laid eyes on Chase, she knew that he was different, though she had no idea how very different he was—until now.

Chase is werewolf. And now, for reasons neither one of them can fathom, as of one week ago—so is she.

Did she ask to be a monster? No she did not. But a monster she’s become all the same.

Dealing with the sudden change and learning to control her new wild side isn't easy, but when Mia’s new and unexpected powers begin to emerge, her decision to return home becomes more dangerous than either one of them can imagine—and possibly deadly. With a new set of rivals and hidden agendas, will the poisonous seeds of jealousy and lies pull them apart…

Or will the truth be enough to set them free?

For the past two weeks, seventeen year old Mia Young has been haunted by dreams of running. Night after night of endless running.

A beautiful stranger with a dark secret, Mia is instantly drawn to Chase, and after several disturbing dreams starring Chase and a mysterious black wolf, Mia is frightened by the unfamiliar feelings stirring inside her. A reluctant friendship begins to blossom, and when Mia is attacked, she turns to Chase for support. Soon the lines of friendship begin to blur, and despite the lies and imperfections between them, Mia must decide if keeping Chase is worth the risk of exposing her broken heart. Mia's ultimate decision becomes one of life or death when a startling truth is revealed. Nothing is as it seems.

I loved the store line but i did find it hard to connect to the characters like chase. I could not stop reading it though. I loved how the author mixed a very common situation with fantasy. I did fine some slow parts but not that bad, if you are looking for action this book does not really have any.

I've seen him on the news. Followed the stories about what happened in Ohio. John Smith, out there, on the run. To the world, he's a mystery. But to me . . . he's one of us.

Nine of us came here, but sometimes I wonder if time has changed us—if we all still believe in our mission. How can I know? There are six of us left. We're hiding, blending in, avoiding contact with one another . . . but our Legacies are developing, and soon we'll be equipped to fight. Is John Number Four, and is his appearance the sign I've been waiting for? And what about Number Five and Six? Could one of them be the raven-haired girl with the stormy eyes from my dreams? The girl with powers that are beyond anything I could ever imagine? The girl who may be strong enough to bring the six of us together?

They caught Number One in Malaysia.
Number Two in England.
And Number Three in Kenya.
They tried to catch Number Four in Ohio—and failed.

I am Number Seven. One of six still alive.

And I'm ready to fight.

I loved the first one but this one I was let down. I had a hard time getting into the book, and staying on track. I feel the book was rushed and lacked all the description and character building it had in the first.

When a mysterious foreign exchange student from Romania moves in across the street, Jacque and her two best friends, Sally and Jen, don't realize the last two weeks of their summer was going to get a lot more interesting.

Little does she know that the flame she is drawn to is actually a Canis Lupus, werewolf, and she just happens to be his mate; the other half of his soul. The problem is Fane is not the only wolf in Coldspring, Texas. Just as Fane and Jacque are getting to know each other, another wolf steps out to try and claim Jacque as his mate. Fane will now have to fight for the right to complete the mating bond, something that is his right by birth but is being denied him by a crazed Alpha. Will the love Fane has for Jacque be enough to give him the strength to defeat his enemy, will Jacque accept that she is Fane's mate and complete the bond between them?

     Prince of wolves was a real quick read for me, that had me laughing. If your looking for a good fast book i would really suggest it to teens and young adults. I was putting this book off for awhile because it seemed like a lot of people either hated it or loved it not very many people in between, so last night i decided to read it and I am glad I did.

A lot of people complained that there was to many dog jokes and I agree but I liked them it showed the character.

For seventeen-year-old Candra Lowell, senior year is supposed to be the time of her life. It’s not supposed to include being shipped off to her aunt and uncle’s house for 'her own good'. Whatever that means. There’s only bad news from this experience—when she learns she’ll go from human to werewolf in a few months. Complete with an inherited unique power.

At her aunt and uncle's house, Candra is plagued with nightmares of a whispering forest and glowing eyes, and a shadowy figure, who issues a warning—she needs to leave town. Candra tries to dismiss the haunting images, but when the shadowy figure appears outside of her home, Candra realizes she should've obeyed.

Candra learns the meaning of the stalker’s warnings when she discovers she’s the new favorite target of a rival pack. She isn't just a werewolf—she's a werewolf in the middle of a feud that makes the Montagues and Capulets look like best friends. She’s also made a mess of things by falling for her sworn enemy. Worse, the rival pack wants the power Candra will receive on her eighteenth birthday. To protect her family and friends, Candra can’t run or hide; she must face her foes, even if it means death.

Candra is new in town and every one knows who she is and what her family's secret is when she is being threaten and she dose dont even know why and what her family's secret is. Ben is her rival and dose not know all she knows is that she likes him and he pushes her away and every one tells her to stay away from him.

I read this book in one sitting and enjoyed it. The only thing i didn't like was that Candra's character is i guess suppose to be tough and brave but a lot of her choices are just plain stupid. This type of plot has been done lots of times before but i do not think i would ever get over it, for i love the forbiden love type of plots.
