Miranda Campbell had a perfect life, ordinary in every aspect. She had great parents, loyal friends, a wonderful boyfriend. But it all fell apart overnight. Her parents split up. Her friends betrayed her out of jealousy. Her boyfriend left her for another girl. Miranda would have fallen into despair if it wasn't for Garth, the mysterious older guy she falls in love with. But Garth claims he has a secret that will keep them apart forever. Miranda is determined to prove him wrong, and will do whatever it takes. I highly reccommend this book. I was rooting for Miranda the whole time. And the end was a real cliff-hanger.

Oh gosh this is thee worst book I have ever read! Good thing I picked it up at a dollar store. The story started out alright but I think it was when Barf stumbled tipsily onto the scene that things went down hill. The last scene were they were in the woods was.....about as romantic as watching a dead tree rot.
The L.J. Smith type cover design attracted me to it despite the giggle worthy red eyes of Garth, our "hero" (snort) and the way Miranda's sprawled across it like one of those cheesy 80's romance covers. And if I remember right (this book is in a deep dark place in my closet and will hopefully never be unleashed on the world again)Garth even has a mullet..and then there's the demonic blood shot red eyes staring out from the cover.)
My suggestion, L.J. Smith is worlds better and I'm just glad I got this book for a dollar.

Set in Overlook, Oregon, 17-year-old Miranda Campbell has become the target of a secret admirer (Garth Gautier) who hides an unbelievable secret--he's a werewolf, one that must kill to survive, even if his prey is human. But how far will Garth's hunger go before it effects the ones Miranda is closest to?

If you like young adult romance/suspense/horror novels, then you'll probably like this trilogy (Dark Moon Legacy). "The Curse" is the first book, followed by "The Seduction" and "The Rebellion". Also recommended: anything by L. J. Smith, for those who enjoy the same type of genre mentioned above.

I bought the book form a used book sale on vacation and thought that it might be a good book to read on the plane, but as i read i found myself just bewitched by it. I couldn't put it down and since then i have read it at least 5 times.
