This book was my first werewolf experience. I must say it was strangely intriguing. I must admit I was worried I would not be able to finish as by page 19 the main character had chewed her best friend’s hand off and was vomiting blood and internal organs, but after the initial shock had worn off I found the story line very attention holding. The parallel between Honor’s name and her actions is not coincidence. She has been thrust into the Alpha position by her father’s untimely death whether she wants to be or not. She steps up and accepts her fate as the next leader of the White Paw pack and she accepts the challenges this brings. However, boys will be boys and some male weres are less than thrilled about this new alpha female. Which is how Logan Hunter enters into the equation – he is the beta of the Silverback Clan and is sent by the alpha to see if Honor is worthy of being the White Paw pack’s new alpha. During the course of this paranormal love story Honor and Logan must decide which of the things they value most – family, pride, leadership……each other – can they learn to live without. There is a lot of werewolf history and explanation in the book which I was grateful for – I learned a lot about “were life and customs” as well as the intensity and sensitivity of these mythical creatures. At times the information seemed a bit wordy but all in all it was a good read. One big thing I learned was werewolves have affection for 4-letter words and they, along with some 5-letter words, are sprinkled throughout. Some of the love scenes are written with great intensity, but are not over described or written in poor taste. I definitely look forward to trying another were book.RATING: 4HEAT RATING: HotREVIEWED BY: A. LynREVIEW COURTESY OF: My Book Addiction and More Ok, so the h is the de facto alpha of a minor pack due to her father's death and various male members of her pack aren't happy about that. The regional alpha (book 2 I think) sends his beta to take a look and report back to him. Murphy, having the keen sense of humor he does, decides the beta (H) and the alpha (h) are mates. Yep; heck of a monkey wrench in everyone's plans. Of course, certain numb nuts never really think past their desire to dominate the h so someone tries to kill the H. This is not a good idea because if they succeed, they'll call the wrath of the regional alpha's pack on their heads. But anyway...Much sniffing around, fighting, and sex later, the same numbnuts call for a mating something or other except the h is better than they expect and... the H shows up and... his alpha shows up and proceeds to install HIM as alpha (which was probably his intention anyway).Anyway... 'twas an interesting read.
What do You think about Hungry Like A Wolf (2013)?
I love Christine Warren's books. Great stories and love her sense of humor.
