................ѕнινєя (ωσℓνєѕ σƒ мєя¢у ƒαℓℓѕ ѕєяιєѕ #1)
.......... ву мαggιє ѕтιєƒναтєя

................the ¢σℓ∂.
Grace has spent years watching the
wolves in the woods behind her house.
One yellow-eyed wolf-her wolf-
watches back. He feels deeply familiar
to her, but she doesn't know why.


...............the нєαт.
Sam has lived two lives. As a wolf, he
keeps the silent company of the girl he
loves. And then, for a short time each
year, he is human, never daring to
talk to Grace... until now.


............the ѕнινєя.
For Grace and Sam, love has always
been kept at a distance. but once its
spoken, it cannot be denied. Sam
must fight to stay human- and Grace
must fight to keep him- even if it
means taking on the scars of the past,
the fragility of the present, and the
impossibility of the future.

Oh yes, I've read all of them. They were good books, although they got a little repetivive towards the end. All-in-all, I loved the series!

Why yes, I have heard of it! This is one of my favorite book trilogies, though as failwolf said, the end gets a bit predictable.

I've been thinking about reading this book, but I'm not really a fan of romance...how much romance is in it?

Yes its an amazing series. It kept be on the edge of my chair pretty much the whole time!
There isn't a huge amount of "romance" although it does evolve around Sam and grace who are in a relationship. Nothing too dramatic though. =]

Adding onto what BlackWarrior said, there isn't much "romance" in the novels, but yes, there is some. If you've ever heard of the book series Twilight, it is about the same amount, maybe a little less.

Adding onto failwolf. The Twilight Series is much less than this. I would say it has about the same amount found in the Hunger Game series. Due to the fact that there is minor romance while in twilight, I do believe it gets more serious.

I'm waiting. Waiting for this book to be returned to the library. It's too bad someone's reading it now D: My sister read the whole series, and I want to also read it.

Yeah, when I was reading the series, it was almost impossible to get the second book! I had to borrow a book from a teacher, which even took forever for her to get it back. The book was, and still is, pretty popular.

I was lucky enough to get the first book as a birthday present, narrowed the second from a friend, then bought the last one them day it came out! And imagine if Tue books are this big of a hit, if they made a movie! ^^
Now maybe I'm just fantasizing ...
