She-Wolf and I got off to a rocky start; I wasn't impressed by the opening chapters and found myself thinking "what the heck have I gotten myself into?" A group of men are at a strip club celebrating one of their friends' last nights of bachelorhood doing what guys do best: drinking, swearing and ogling scantily clad women. Then Clare takes the stage and completely changes the direction and feel of the story. *phew!* I adore the mate aspect of werewolf fiction and this novel has it in spades. The plot line is surprisingly complex for a Paranormal Romance and the character development really impressed me. I enjoyed my time in Elizabeth Morgan's Blood universe and after this book's ending I find myself wanting more.

I was taken aback by the maturity that Owen demonstrated in the face of Clare's rejection. Typically alpha wolves have one track minds and an over the top sense of entitlement. Even though MacLaren's beast did demonstrate these characteristics his human half does a fantastic job of reining them in and forcing him to act in a more civilized manner. Clare makes it very clear from the get-go what her main concerns are with regards to their relationship and Owen actually listens. The primitive, caveman mentality is still present but it's not overpowering. As a result, MacLaren earned my respect and approval to pursue Walker which I hadn't expected to give so easily after reading the opening chapters.

The story is remarkably profound considering that it revolves around a budding romance. There's weird creatures terrorizing the pack, Clare's reevaluating her future and Morgan's wolf-ish lore is also added to the mix. I was fascinated by the Blood world and was more interested in uncovering Elizabeth's universe than the details of MacLaren and Walker's relationship. I was a little disappointed by the fact that there's really only one sexual encounter because I was under the impression that She-Wolf was borderline erotica but there is still plenty of tension throughout this book. Although, I must say, that one scene is HOT! Here's hoping that there's a smidgen more nookie time in the first installment and that this prequel was just meant to wet readers' palates.

The only fault that I found with this book was the editing; unfortunately, that's a pretty big issue in my opinion. The dialogue didn't flow super well and it didn't always feel natural. Identical or similar words were often repeated within the same sentence or close enough together to be noticeable. These errors definitely took away from my overall enjoyment of this novel and are the only reason that I'm giving this book 3 stars instead of 4.

She-Wolf is a great introduction to Elizabeth Morgan's writing style and the ending left me curious about Cranberry Blood's story line. This is definitely a worthwhile read for any werewolf fan.

Owen MacLaren has never been more petrified than the day Clare danced her way back into his life. He stumbles and the suave womanizer disappears as his wolf decides to take control. Before he knows it, his world is turned upside down and confusion over his feelings and what is best for her are at war with each other. Now Owen is at Clare’s mercy as he struggles to make her realize that he’s changed, but so has she. The past has a way of coming back to bite and a nightmare look into Clare’s possible demise, gives Owen clarity and a new resolve strengthened. If she’ll have him, he’ll take her any way he can get her.

Clare Walker has never forgotten Owen or her feelings for him since childhood. What started out as idolizing Owen eventually turned into love after her first change. She can still remember quite clearly the day Owen broke her heart as a teen and although she hasn’t seen him in the last five years, those feelings haven’t gone away. She’s hardened herself and focused her feelings into her passion for dance, which has led her back home and almost on Owen’s lap. The Rogue threat is what ultimately brings them together and it may just tear them apart, but the question is what exactly are these Rogues?

She-Wolf is a combination of both suspense and drama with a nice dose of erotic romance. The power exchanges and dialogue between Owen and Clare are hilariously amusing and maddeningly frustrating, which just added to my further enjoyment of the story. Having the characters just hop into a relationship would have been less believable and I wouldn’t have connected with the character’s as well either.

However, there was some confusion surrounding how long Clare has been back in Scotland. It was mentioned a couple of times that Clare had been back for three weeks, but an employee of the strip club said Clare had been working there for two months. I am also not entirely sure why Clare decided to work at a strip club instead of finding some other type of gainful employment while waiting for her ‘big break’. Regardless, Clare and Owen’s unique reunion in the strip club makes for some fairly heated and intense exchanges between them right from the beginning of the story. Since the story is told from the points-of-view of both Clare and Owen, the reader is immediately drawn into the characters thoughts and feelings while the switching of the POV's was smoothly done.

There is much potential for The Blood Series to continue momentum with the next installment after the cliff-hangery ending and fans of paranormal erotic romance will definitely want to check out this author. After reading She-Wolf, it is without question that I will be reading the next in the series, Cranberry Blood.

Shelves: paranormal, romance

When Elizabeth Morgan's werewolves listen to Nickelback and walk among us, it's like a whole world open to new possibilities. Very well-written, "She-Wolf" gave me hours of entertainment and delicious shivers. I really enjoyed this novel, and recommend it to all paranormal fans. Now, I'll be drumming on the table, waiting for the sequel.

Claire Walker has returned to her hometown of Scottland after being gone for five years. She left because of the second in command of her clan rejected her after she confessed her feelings for him. Owen would babysit Claire and her siblings when she was a teenage. Owen never explianed to Claire his reasoning for rejecting her. Maybe if he had he wouldn't have broken her heart so bad.

One night Owen's friends talk him into going to a bar for a bachelor party for one of their friends. He sees Claire up on the stage and his wolf side of him comes out. Now after five years has passed since he last saw her the shoe is on the other foot as they say. Owen realizes with the help of his wolf that Claire is his soul mate. Owen is in for a surprise when he finally gets to speak with Claire. Although Claire feels the same thing she still feels the hurt that he put her through when she was a teenager. Claire set down some ground rules with Owen as to how they were going to deal with their relationship now. Owen is going to have to gain her trust back and prove to her that he will not her hurt again. What is he going to do to her trust again? What is Claire going to put him through or what kind of chalk line is he going to have to follow? How far will he go to get her back?

On top of everything that he is going through now with Claire, Owen and their clan are having problems with someone killing humans and leaving the bodies on their property. Owen and his clan does not feed from humans they go hunting at night for animals to feed from. When they get close or think they are on the right track to finding who is killing humans and leaving them in their territory. The rogues come after Owen and Claire. Who are these rogues? Why are they dumping bodies all over their land?

She-Wolf is written in both Owen and Claire's point of view. I like reading books where they are written in different characters point of view. When you get the story from different people's view you know what each person thinks and feels. If they are written with one person's view they can't tell you what everyone else is thinking. I loved the whole process of how they shifted into werewolves. If a wolf had a mate then the change was like a romantic kind of thing for them and having a mate made the change easier for them too,

Now I would like to take this time to thank Elizabeth Morgan for giving me the opportunity to read She-Wolf. I love reading about werewolves or any paranormal creäture. After reading She-Wolf it left me wanting to know more and very anxious to read Cranberry Blood (Blood #1).(less)

Loved the whole story and the characters were great. Both the humor and the suspense kept me turning pages until I was finished. I can't wait to read another one by Elizabeth Morgan she has become a favorite author. Though the cliffhanger frustrated can't wait for the next

Quotes from She-Wolf

“She made a slow turn as she loosened her ponytail and shook her head; her hair streamed down her back like a glossy black waterfall. She finished her spin. Her focus landed on me, and the air caught in my throat. My Wolf stirred.
Clare.
Her body went rigid; her sultry gaze hardened as she stared at me.
Clare Walker. I'd know those moonlit eyes anywhere.
She ran and grabbed hold of the stage right pole. Her feet left the floor as she wrapped her legs around the brass and spun.
What in god's name is she doing working in a fucking strip club?” — 2 people liked it

“I took a deep breath and kept my focus fixed on her. "Making me chase you wouldn't be a good idea right now, flower," I stated, fully aware of my Wolf.
"No, it wouldn't, but you need to stay over there," she said firmly.
My brow furrowed. "Why?"
"Because, if you come near me, I will want to kiss you," she said, nibbling her lower lip the way I wanted to.
"Well good, because I want to kiss you too." I moved back the way I had come, and so did she. "Clare—"
"No, not good." She shook her head. "Kissing leads to touching, or grinding, or"—she shuddered as her energy suggestively brushed against mine— "or petting, and almost stripping.” — 1 person liked it
