Age Range: Young Adult
I loved this book! The book has a main character, Grace, who was attacked by wolves when she was young. A certain wolf with yellow eyes stops the attack and saves her life. Grace feels a bond with the wolves and is constantly watching for "her wolf" to appear in the woods behind her house. This wolf appears throughout the winter months and watches over her, but disappears during the warmer summer months. When Grace is 17 she meets Sam for the first time after he has been shot by a group of hunters. He transforms from a wolf into Sam. Grace falls in love with the human Sam as she finds out more about his life as a wolf and his past as a human. Throughout the book, Sam and Grace cling to their time together and Sam constantly fights to remain human as the weather starts to turn colder. Isabel and her brother Jack, come up with a possible cure to turn the werewolves back into humans permanently. Isabel draws 3 viles of blood from a patient with meningitis with the hopes of bringing on a fever after it is injected. Will this injection save Sam? I hoped throughout the book that Sam and Grace will get their happy ending.
