5.0 out of 5 stars A WEREWOLF STORY TO HOWL ABOUT..., January 19, 2007

Compelling, absorbing, and lyrical... Ms. Boyd can sure tell a story. She spins a tale of a subculture of urbane werewolves that exist and live amidst humans, unbeknownst to most of them. They are wealthy, elegant, intelligent, well-educated, and powerful: the consummate "beautiful people" known as the Devoncroix clan.

It is a story that is sinuous in its imagery and sensual in its use of language. The author expertly weaves the tale of Alexander, head of the Devoncroix clan, and his connection to the all too human Tessa. It is Tessa's fascination with Alexander and his fascination with her that is at the heart of this novel.

The author's description of werewolves and their subculture is intriguing and spellbinding. She draws you in and before you know it, you are caught: hook, line, and sinker. You dread coming to the end of the book, and when you do, you cannot wait to go out and get the sequel. Anne Rice, beware! Here comes the heir apparent. Anyway, the book is a great read.

When I first saw the book I was hooked on the cover. All black book with a red rose it was beautiful. I read the book all day and into the night and ended up reading it again because the story was so good. I've shared this book and the story with friends and family, but it's one of my favorite books and whoever I loan this book to MUST bring it back.....The way she describe the werewolves characters in the book make you wish you could find your own. The story was well written and I couldn't wait to read the next book "The Promise". I hope that Donna Boyd will continue with this series I would love to know the end of the story!
