Summary: BOLD AND WONDERFUL. INTRIGUING AND FULL OF MYSTERY!!
Review: Kieran Holt is a strong, caring hero who dares to reach for the truth. Kieran learns to care and love Alexandra, who is a wolf researcher, a scientist, out to defend the wolves. Alex gets caught between finding out the real truth about Kieran and discovers the truth about her own feelings. A must read. Very exciting.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I'm a new fan! Highly recommended
Review: Playing in the woods together and enjoying long summer days, Alexandra Warrington and Kieran Holt knew each other as children. Alex knew her playmate better as Shadow, the black wolf who dared to play with a ten-year-old girl. Unfortunately, a poacher kills Kieran's parents, leaving the young boy alone when Alex must leave the woods of her grandparent's home to return to her parents.

Alex returns to the Minnesota woods as wolf researcher years later. Likewise, Kieran cannot ignore the call of his past and returns to the woods remembering the young girl's promise of help. A werewolf, Kieran has wandered the lands for five years alone.

Alex wakes one morning to find a complete stranger in her bed, despite the long dormant sensual and erotic pleasure, she refuses to let a man into her heart or her bed. The death of her mother years ago, the tragic accident that left her face permanently scarred, her father's rejection and the breakup with her fiancé have insured that Alex never intends to let anyone close to her but her beloved wolves. When a mysterious murder from five years previous ties to another death shortly after her arrival, Alex finds herself committed to helping Kieran at all costs.

Tinges of mysticism, and liberal doses of the paranormal make PRINCE OF SHADOWS an unusual and fascinating read. As the characters develop, I couldn't help being drawn into the tale and empathizing with the challenges each character must face. With an intensity and passion seldom matched, PRINCE OF SHADOWS.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A wonderful read!
Review: Prince of Shadows is a riveting novel that embraces the livesof Alexandra Warrington and Kieran Holt, two souls who societythreatens to tear apart, but were meant to be. I didn't just connect with characters, but was genuinely touched by each of their lives. Sue Krinard has an amazing ability to weave a fine tale, a story that compels the reader and reaches into their heart. The details and aspects of the wolf's life were an interesting facet that added another layer to this already intriguing story. Prince of Shadows is a wonderful read filled with passion, need, and love.

Summary: The face of a monster
Review: They met as children, the young Alexandra and Kieran. However, Alex only knew Kieran as her young wolf, Shadow. On the day she is to go back home, she witnesses the killing of two wolves by a poacher. However, she recognizes the wolves as Shadow's parents. She is afraid for Shadow and that she cannot find him. Instead, she finds a boy, Kieran Holt, grieving over the dead wolves. She promises to help him, but her parents take her away before she can do so.

Alex goes back as an adult, but she now bears scars from an accident. She has become a reclusive wolf researcher. She hears rumors about a black wolf that some people blame for cattle killing and the death of a young girl. However, she also hears proof that not a wolf but a man caused the girl's death; so, she wants to help the wolf being hunted. Then she wakes up to find a naked man in her bed...who could it be, hmmm?

Read as Kieran and Alexandra come to face their fears: Alex about her "ugliness", and Kieran about the "beast" within. Both help each other to see more clearly. But what can they do about the new murders that point to Kieran as murderer? Is Kieran the murdering beast? read and find out!

This was one of my favorite so far of Susan Krinard's books. Loved that man! Gotta love the man on the jacket though...mmm..mm!

Summary: Good "Were" Story
Review: This is my first novel by Susan Krinard and it will not be my last. I really enjoyed this "were romance." Alexandra Warrington first met "Shadow" her best friend and wolf when she was a young girl. Now years later, she is physically and mentally scarred and returning to her grandparent's home to conduct research on "wolves." At her grandparent's home, Alex finds a hurt wolf and takes him home with her. The next morning Alex discovers her wolf gone, and a man in her bed with no memory of who he is. At first, Alex panics but she soon discovers that this man is in actuality her wolf. Alexandra decides to help him discover what happened to him to make him lose his memory. Also, during this time Alex finds herself growing attracted to him. Still, she has to be careful because a murder has also occurred that has all the markings of a "large wolf." This is a very good story. I connected with the heroine and really enjoyed her. I would recommend.

Summary: Werewolves will never been seen in the same light again
Review: This is the book that got me into reading Krinard's other werewolf tales. This one, unfortunately, was the best. Prince of Wolves is far too slow moving and takes too long to get one into the characters' heads. In "Prince of Shadows" however, I fell for physically scarred Alex as quickly as I fell for the emotionally scarred Kieren. This is a good book both from the werewolf point of view and for the romance. I loved it. The only werewolf romance I have read that I think is better, was "The Passion." That, however, fell just a bit short in the sensual area. That is where "Prince of Shadows" surges ahead.
