Fantasy. Fiction. Romance. HTML:I look like an all-American grad student. But I am a werecat, a shape-shifter, and I live in two worlds.
Despite reservations from my family and my Pride, I escaped the pressure to continue my species and carved out a normal life for myself. Until the night a Stray attacked.
I'd been warned about Strays??werecats without a Pride??constantly on the lookout for someone like me: attractive, female and fertile. I fought him off, but then learned two of my fellow tabbies had disappeared.
This brush with danger was all my Pride needed to summon me back...for my own protection. Yeah, right. But I'm no meek kitty. I'll take on whatever??and whoever??I have to in order to find my friends. Watch out, Strays??'cause I got claws, and I'm not afraid

Priorities, as well as the emotional impact of events in relation to their severity, are all messed up in this one.
Emotions are constantly swinging between extremes without any good reason.

An interesting plot, but honestly the book could have been half the size. Just take out the spoiled little rich girl wants to get out from under daddy's thumb, but still wants to spend his money. Oh, and remove the parts about the old boyfriend who really cares, but is too needy, so we are going to run away from that. Setting up these two points, great. Mentioning one or the other every other sentence, yeah, not so entertaining. Also, we could have done without the part where Faythe decides that right after finding out that two girls are missing, that would be the best time to challenge her father and tell him she wants to live on her own and leave the Pride. Timing isn't her strong suite.

All that being said, I do enjoy the independent streak. And the fact that she mostly got herself out of a situation that she got her fool self in the first place. Instead of just giving up and taking what she was given. I will definitely read more in the series, and hope that Faythe does find herself and not be as whiny and spoiled. ( )

The Shifters series by Rachel Vincent is amazing. I definitely think the first few books are better than the last ones in the series but nevertheless it is a series I thoroughly enjoyed reading. Faythe and Marc are great characters who I love reading about. ( )

The book was basically ok. I don't know if it was because at the time I just read much urban fantasy, and this wasn't quite as compelling as the others I was reading, or if this just wasn't my cup of tea. Also, I might've finished if it wasn't so thick. Maybe the problem was that it just took too long to get to a point. Anyway, I just didn't care enough to finish. ( )

Loved it!!!!!!! Everything about this book kept me locked till the end: the characters, the dialogues, the plot (duh!) and I absolutely loved the pack dynamics (different species -cats v wolves- but same interests)! I think that the reason I liked it so much is due to the fact that it gives you the whole package; in the book, in fact, you can find in equal measure humor, mystery, romance & action!

3 out of 5 stars! Faythe is a great strong character: fierce, determined, a protector to those she loves, though a bitch at times, with a small sweet side that is sometimes hard to find around her loud mouth. Her relationship with Marc is on rocky ground but it's hard not to root for them. Even though she happens to get into a bit of a love triangle (or should I say a square) with a friend she never considered before, and with a human boyfriend back at college. It definitely make me curious as to what book 2, "Rogue", might hold. =0)
