This book comes with a warning on the back that reads: WARNING! This is a REALLY HOT book. Believe it! :-)
However, this was more than just a really steamy book. It was a good read as well.
Lisa Quinn is a wolf rescue specialist who has no idea why she has such an affinity with the wolves she cares for. She's dedicated to her work and determined to discover why wolves have been disappearing from the sanctuary she works in.
Tinker McClintock was assigned to track down the sister to one of his packmates. It's not surprising there's instant chemistry between them, but it goes deeper than just sexual. Lisa, like Tinker (and her brother), is Chanku, a desendant of a race of shapeshifters whose powers are triggered by the special nutrients found in plants and grasses only found on the Tibetan steppe they originated from.
I enjoyed the new take on the werewolf legend, and it made a poignant kind of sense for these people to lead disfunctional lives until they discovered their heritage. Lisa is a strong, independent character and meets Tinker on her own terms. Tinker is surrounded by friends and lovers, but is still a lonely soul.
The action and mystery surrounding the disappearance of the wolves was also well done. Even without the romance this would have been a good read. And the sex ain't bad either. ;-)
