Review: Shiver

The cold.
Grace has spebt years watching the wolves in the woods behind her house. One yellow-eyed wolf- her wolf- watches back. He feels deeply familiar to her, but she doesn't know why.
The heat.
Sam has lived two lives. As a wolf, he keeps silent company of the girl he loves. And then, for a short time each year, he is human, never daring to talk to Grace...until now.
The shiver.
For Grace and Sam, love has always been kept at a distance. But once it's spoken, it can not be denied. Sam must fight to stay human- and Grace must fight to keep him- even if it means taking on the scars of the past, the fragility of the present, and the impossibility of the future.


Okay, so we all know that I don't generally go for the whole I'm-a-human-he's-a-werewolf-and-I-love-puppies-so-it-will-work-out thing. But I couldn't put this book down. It's great for people who like books like Changeling even if they don't like Twilight (shudders). Or if they're team Jacob or something (I'm team Eric). So if you like hot emo werewolf boys, give it a spin!
