Terry Spear has been on my ‘to-read’ list for a while, and I’m not ashamed to admit the half-naked men accompanied by a wolf on the covers swayed it for me. Even though it was slightly superficial to want to read a book based on the abs of a faceless man, I was quickly invested in the story and it’s the writing and the characters that kept me interested.

Carol, a newly turned Werewolf also has the unwanted ability of premonitions. Her recent visions show Werewolves being unable to transform back into their human form from a virus and fearing this, she’s been fighting the change for five months. Being a newly turned wolf and a rare female wolf at that, the Pack leader pushes Carol to find a mate to help guide her and protect her. Enter Chaz/Chester (he likes to be called Ryan) who is the Alpha of the neighbouring Pack, and a PI who has been sniffing around intrigued with Carol since meeting her just before she was bitten, and cannot get her off his mind. After an attempted kidnapping, it’s agreed that Ryan will become a bodyguard for Carol. There is a mutual attraction, but Ryan could never be with a woman who is not interested in embracing her inner Wolf and he also doesn’t trust her visions. On the other side, Carol doesn’t want to be with someone who doesn’t believe in her. But when a virus breaks out amongst the wolves, the pack turn to Carol for an answer and with Ryan they must search for a cure, all the time becoming closer and denying their attraction to one another.

This is the sixth book in the Heart of the Wolf series, but my first. Even though sometimes it might feel like you should know some of the characters already, it doesn’t hinder the enjoyment of the book at all. We go on the journey with Carol and we learn with her about the Wolf culture.

Carol is a fantastic heroine, I liked her immediately. She is a strong courageous female, she stands with her head held high and doesn’t apologise for who she is. With Ryan also being a stubborn Alpha it makes for some really great dialogue and chemistry between them, and I liked that her Alpha-ness was something Ryan truly admired in her. I really enjoyed them both having to overcome a hurdle within themselves, Carol needs to trust her inner wolf and Ryan needs to believe in Carol’s abilities.

Ryan may not be the usual Alpha male, but that made him far more interesting than the overly brooding/aggressive type. I loved the fact that when pack members have sex they are mated to each other for life, and this introduces a tangible sexual tension which really came alive on the pages. Ooh!

The Pack is like a huge welcoming family, and it gave me some warm fuzzies reading about them. They may not be perfect, but the love they have for each other is very clear and it made me smile more than once. While some characters are not the focus of the story, I definitely wanted to know more about them because of how well fleshed out they are.

There is so much happening in this book, but the author doesn’t confuse us. Instead her writing is clear and flowing and we are able to follow the plot without feeling like we are missing details. The storyline is very involving and I was anxious to reach the conclusion. I did however feel like it took a long time for the wolf virus, which we knew was coming, to occur and the cause is never really explained. But aside from that, Wolf Fever is a well written PNR. I was hooked immediately, I know I’ll be following this series from now on and plan to start from the beginning. This is one instance where I was happy to judge a book by its cover!

VERDICT:

This is an engaging paranormal romance with really solid characters. The suspense may be slightly slow in coming, but the lead up to it is enjoyable and the story is soon full of action. The romance is full of wonderful tension, and I was rooting for our heroes to get a HEA every step of the way. A great book to read on these winter nights.

I will never get enough of Terry Spear’s werewolf series. As long as she keeps giving me alpha heroes with strong and stubborn heroines who stand up to them and an interesting and fast-paced storyline, you can bet I’ll keep reading.

The storyline in Wolf Fever is actually the best of the series so far. Not only is there mystery and danger for Silver Town’s wolves, we get a little bit of humor in this book, along with, of course, some steamy sexual tension.

The storyline in Wolf Fever is actually the best of the series so far. Not only is there mystery and danger for Silver Town’s wolves, we get a little bit of humor in this book, along with, of course, some steamy sexual tension.

I like the fact that our hero, Ryan, has come back to Silver Town to, in his words, close his investigation by re-interviewing our heroine, Carol, about her psychic abilities that helped resolve past events in town, all because he doesn’t believe in psychics. I had to laugh out loud at this. The man is a werewolf, the stuff of legends. And he doesn’t believe in the paranormal. Carol gets a little sarcastic about that herself when talking to him about the issue. I also like that when Carol screws up, gets herself or someone else in trouble going against Ryan’s demands, most of which are for her safety, she learns from it. She doesn’t do it again. She may have to push the boundaries here and there, but she doesn’t push it to stupid just because she doesn’t like being told what to do. She has a mind of her own and she uses it. Ryan just wants her safe and she knows it and appreciates it. And that makes him even more attractive to her.

Carol is a newly turned wolf and is afraid to shift into her animal form. With her psychic gift, she’s been getting visions of members of the pack not being able to shift back into human form after shifting into wolves. Her fear and visions are justified, because the reader is privy to the danger being levied against the Silver Town wolves as it happens. Little by little as her visions come to pass, Ryan begins to believe in her more and more. Ryan has tried to fight the attraction to Carol over the past five months since he last saw her, but nothing he does gets her off his mind. That he has to watch Silver Town males compete to be her mate doesn’t help matters either. The sexual tension between Ryan and Carol begins early and smolders for a good bit, each scene more sensual and sizzling than the last. When Ryan finally does take her as his mate, they become attuned to one another so much they complement the other in everything they do.

Though the danger to the pack is serious and affects only a few of the wolves before it’s resolved, the perpetrators behind the danger are quite inept and don’t get away with their plan too much intact. They aren’t evil-doers, but just folks too desperate to make a new start and taking the easy way out, instead of working for what they want.

Another very nice addition to Ms. Spear’s series. She keeps it interesting in storyline, hot and steamy in romance, and charming and endearing while alpha and beguiling in character. And all of that makes me very happy as a reader.

My Synopsis: Carol is a recently turned lupus garou - who has another ability. She has visions of the future - usually signifying trouble. These visions have enabled her to keep from shifting for five months. She is troubled because one of her visions has shown her members of her new wolf family as wolves - unable to shift back.

She has visions of the future - usually signifying trouble. These visions have enabled her to keep from shifting for five months. She is troubled because one of her visions has shown her members of her new wolf family as wolves - unable to shift back. She is afraid that if she shifts, she will not be able to shift back again.

Since she is newly turned and unmated AND has not shifted - Darien, the pack leader - has moved her into his house in order to keep an eye on her. He wants her to learn their ways and doesn't want her shifting unexpectedly. He knows it will happen, it is just a matter of time. He also feels it is his responsibility to find her a mate.

Ryan McKinley is leader of a pack from a neigboring town and a P.I. Carol's visions had helped him to solve a murder, but he has been unable to get her out of his head. He says it is because he doesn't believe she is psychic and wants to get to the bottom of how she came upon her information. The harder he tries to prove she is a fraud, the more he starts to believe her, all the while neither one of them can seem to fight the growing attraction between them.

A mysterious flu sweeps through the community and before anyone can stop it, some of the wolves have shifted and cannot change back. It is up to Carol and Ryan to figure out what is going on and if they are going to be able to stop it in time.

My Thoughts: I did like this book - but I had a hard time picturing Carol. I don't think it had so much to do with her description, but the fact that I know too many Carols. My mom is Karol, my MIL is Carol and my next door neighbor is Carol. None of these women are young, sexy, wolf-like, (lol) so it took some time for me to erase my Carols and embrace this Carol. Once I really got into the story though, it got easier. This book was a little slower moving than previous books by Ms. Spear that I had read. It seemed to take longer to get to the "mystery" that needed to be solved. And while I grew to like Carol and Ryan together, I didn't instantly feel their chemistry - and maybe that was how it was supposed to be as neither one of them really wanted to be mated either.

In a twist of fate, Carol is bitten by a lupus garous. Now she must also come to terms with the fact that she’s a werewolf.

Because of her premonitions, Carol fights the urge to transform into a werewolf. In her visions she’s seen where the werewolves aren’t able to shift back to their human form.

Darien Silver, pack leader of the red werewolves in Silver City, is getting fed up with Carol’s refusal to accept her new werewolf condition. He doesn’t know about her premonitions. He’s decided Carol needs a mate to keep her in line and werewolves mate for life.

Meanwhile, P.I. Ryan McKinley comes snooping around because he can’t get Carol out of his thoughts. Ryan attributes it to Carol helping him with a case using her psychic ability, which he finds hard to believe. This is ironic since Ryan is the pack leader of the gray werewolves in Green Valley.

A kidnapping attempt is made for Carol. Darien suspects it was by relatives of the man who turned Carol and was then killed. Since Ryan is already around, Darien agrees for him to be her body guard. That’s when things really begin to heat up. To add to the mix, the group soon learns there really is a virus affecting the werewolves.

While trying to find a cure, Carol and Ryan fight their attraction to one another. They are strong individuals, but find that they are unstoppable as a team.

This is the sixth installment in the Heart of the Wolf series. Though references are made to prior events and people, this is a stand alone book. While the main characters will fascinate you, the secondary characters all have their own blend of charm as well.

Author Terry Spear has demonstrated once again that she can have you believing in the unbelievable. Her characters draw you in and the fast pace action keeps you enthralled until the end. Along the way she sprinkles in just enough humor with the suspense, while taking your breath away with the romance.

WOLF FEVER is the perfect prescription for warming those cold reading nights (and days). If you’re not a fan of werewolves, you will be by the end. Author Terry Spear creates werewolves that will captivate you with their honesty, love of family, loyalty, fun nature, and charming ways.

Wolf Fever is the latest in Terry Spear's werewolf series. I really enjoy this series because the author has a down to earth writing style that makes her characters feel very real and believable. I found the heroine fiery and fun to read and the hero stubborn and sexy.

Carol's history has been troubled. When she was a child she had a freak accident and now she sometimes sees glimpses of the future. Although she has been ostracized, humiliated and called crazy, she still feels she must try to help the people in her visions from danger. The latest incident to help someone resulted in her being bitten by a werewolf and now she is the newest member of the red werewolf pack. But because turned werewolves (instead of born werewolves) are supposed to have poor mastery of their 'animal side' and because female werewolves are rare the alpha of the pack has been pressuring Carol to find a mate within his pack to guide and 'control her. But Carol finds she is not interested in the men of the red pack with the exception of the pack leader’s brothers who don't seem to be interested in her! The rest of the men are pushovers and Carol finds she wants someone as strong as she is. She unexpectedly finds herself drawn to the gray werewolf alpha named Ryan. But Ryan is skeptical of her powers. And Carol realizes she can't have a relationship with a man who doesn't believe in her and even tries to deny their attraction! To complicate matters, Carol is haunted by visions of werewolves unable to transformation back to their human side. Because of this, she is afraid to shift into her wolf form which makes her more unstable. Can Carol finally accept her 'inner wolf?' Can Ryan accept his growing feelings and trust her?

This story was very interesting because so much was occurring. But the author's clear writing made it easy to follow and fascinating to read. I found myself wanting to know about Carol's visions and even wished that she had more of them. I really liked her psychic abilities since I feel it really enriched the story line. Plus Carol has become a stronger character due to her special abilities. They have scarred her and she has had to learn confidence in her powers and herself because unbelievers in the past have tried to make her feel like she was mad or strange.
I feel the courageous heroine made this book. I especially liked how she wants to be taken on her own terms. She wasn't going to change herself to suit other people or make their lives easier because they didn’t want to believe her. She had plenty of: resilience, fortitude and moral integrity. It was a little frustrating that the hero took a while to realize what a good thing Carol was. He was a solid and sexy character but I really loved Carol!

This was an involving story that I simply had to finish. I love the world the author has created and can't wait to read more, especially about the red alpha's brothers?!

She's not a natural born werewolf - she was attacked 5 months ago and turned. Since then, she's been fighting the change (successfully so far) and Darien, her pack leader, is concerned. She's fighting the change because she's been having visions of some of the men in her pack shifting into wolves and not being able to shift back. In addition to trying to convince her to shift, Darien is also trying to convince her to take a mate, as females are a precious commodity and he doesn't want her attacked and/or stolen.

Ryan McKinley is a former cop, now a PI, who assisted Darien's pack a few months ago with a problem they were having. Since then he hasn't been able to get Carol off his mind - he doesn't believe her visions are real. So he's back on Darien's turf to figure out how Carol figured out the clues to his case.

When Carol is almost kidnapped, she hires Ryan to be her bodyguard. He agrees, and that's where things start to really heat up. The attraction is definitely there, but Carol can't be with someone who doesn't believe in her "talent", and Ryan needs a mate who can embrace her wolf. Then, Carol's visions come true and the wolves can't shift back and the pack looks to her to find a cure.

My thoughts: I really enjoy reading Terry Spear's wolves; she is very good at making the wolf come across in their human counterparts. I love her Alpha males, and even though she was a new wolf, Carol was such a stubborn Alpha female, it was fun to see the Beta males trying (unsuccessfully) to win her affections. The social hiearchy of the packs was also well-done; although not the hero of this story, Darien was a great Alpha leader who was willing to work with another Alpha to resolve his problems. The sickness plot was interesting - biological warfare within werewolf packs is a novel storyline and it worked here, providing a dose of urgency to the story.

I'm looking forward to the next book in this series - Heart of the Highland Wolf.

As if living with precognitive abilities in an unbelieving world wasn't hard enough, Carol Woods now has to adapt to being a newly-turned werewolf. Even worse, her new pack doesn't trust her ability to stay in control (and stay hidden), so Carol must choose a mate or remain under the pack-leaders’ supervision. Females are rare, and she quickly goes from feeling like a wallflower to having all the attention she can handle.

As an adult turned werewolf, Carol has a lot to learn about the wolves' customs and culture. This was both interesting and useful to read, as WOLF FEVER was the first book I read in the Heart of the Wolf series. Learning alongside Carol, I soon realized that this was no overwrought “forced to marry” situation. The pack was more like a huge family eager to match-make. Enthusiastic, sometimes embarrassing, but always with their heart in the right place. Spear was not afraid to take risks with her characters, and gave Carol the luxury of more than one attractive candidate to consider.

Of course, it does not take long for Carol to identify her hero. To me, Chester “I go by Ryan” McKinley wasn’t as interesting a character as Carol, but I appreciated the humor of a werewolf that doesn't believe in psychics. Also, in Spear's mythology, werewolves are bonded for life once they have sex with another wolf. This makes for great sexual tension (and a lot of heavy petting). It was refreshing to read a paranormal romance where the characters can’t fall into bed with each other right away.

There are many components that come together to make a good book, and WOLF FEVER made a strong showing in most of them. The closed world of the Silver Town wolves was of practical interest (how does an entire paranormal sub-culture survive unnoticed in the modern world), and the plot of this particular book was intriguing as well. However, the flow of the writing itself was hit or miss. I didn't want to stop reading, but it did detract from my overall enjoyment of the book in places. Spear did a great job drawing realistic wolf details and behaviors into the fabric her werewolf mythology, and that (combined with the good plot and characters), is enough to bring me back to the Heart of the Wolf series.

Sexual Content: Several scenes of sexuality and heavy petting (no wolf pun intended).

Ryan met Carol awhile back when he was investigating a murder and she was telling him that she had a vision of what happened/was to happen. He didn't believe her but couldn't stop thinking about her. He comes to talk to her to find out the rational reason she "sees" things and ends up slowly falling in love. The mate party was a lot strange.

I like that we get to read about people in the book that we met before in earlier books and they still are just as fun as before even though they aren't the focus of the story. If you're looking for a book with funny characters as well as some steamy romance time then this is a book for you.

Though there are references made about events and characters from previous books you can still read this book and not feel completely lost. I loved the plot but felt like the virus took too long to effect the werewolves society until near the end of the book. Even when we knew it was going to happen in the beginning because of Carol's visions. Other then that I enjoyed this book and plan to read the series from the beginning.

I wasn't too sure about this one... I wasn't really feeling the name 'Carol' but I'm glad I read it! If you're looking for a hot were-wolf story with an alpha male and a nice 'normal (not really)' heroine, give this a try. Carol was so likable and relatable, and Rick, hoo boy, he was strong but didn't go around barking orders all the time.

Enjoyed this trip back to find out what happened to Carol after she was bitten and turned. Having trouble excepting her wolf, she is put into the "dating pool" for unmated men in her town.
Her true loved comes in an outsider who ends up helping the pack through a crisis.

I love werewolves and I love Terry Spear. Need I say more? Her books are always fun and never disappoint. The plot was intense and the virus had me on the edge of my seat. Carol and Ryan's characters made the story even better. Four stars!

Grammar errors all over, but still fun. Classic story of a heroine who wants a man to take charge, plus werewolves.

Found a copy of it on the ground, picked it up, read it. Guilty pleasures.

Carol Woods is a newly changed wolf with psychic abilities. Ryan McKinley an Alpha from another pack... finds Carol intriguing and is very much attracted to her. He doesn't really believe that she has learned about the lupus garou through a vision and he's out to prove it no matter how tantalizing he finds her.

Wolf Fever is action-packed and sizzling hot. It's no surprise that I loved this book. Terry Spear writes great alpha males. They are really hard to resist, and they keep you turning to th...more

(Heart of the Wolf,#6) (e-book) I didn't feel a strong connection with Ryan and Carol. Not sure if I like her natural depiction of werewolves. Fun fast read overall.

This was a fun book to read, due to Carol and Ryan. Both of whom were very likable and you were rooting for them from the start.

Another fun part of the book was seeing the inner workings of the pack, the pack workings, and the mating rituals. The town as a whole was fun too. Every single person had an opinion on if Carol and Ryan should mate.

I thought the story line with the Red's wasn't all that interesting and was glad that that part wasn't as big of part of the book.

I am hoping that Jake an...more
