Rating: Summary: A Werewolf saga that promises more in the future! Review: I was anxious to read this book as I am a paranormal fan. It is certainly different from her other werewolf books which deal with the descendants of Braden and Cassidy. This book is setting the stage for a long and satisfying relationship between the reader and the characters in the books I feel sure Ms. Krinard will write about Bradens sister and brother, Cassidys brother and maybe even the other werewolf clans!! Please, please, pretty please! Sometimes the first book in what promises to be a series is strangely unsatisfying unless you don't start reading them until they are all in print. Not so with this one. It is whole and complete in itself as it deals with the life of Cassidy Holt, a strong young heroine and her growing relationship with Braden, who becomes her husband. It even goes farther than the "I do" which sometimes leave us wondering how they progressed. Cassidy changes Bradens life and alters his focus on the Cause without changing it. I wondered in the middle what would happen and Ms. Krinard surpised me with the strength and fervor of Cassidys life. I recommend this highly as an enjoyable read. Thank you Ms. Krinard! Please write many more stories about these werewolves.
Rating: Summary: Best thing she's written, and that's saying a lot Review: Ms Krinard returns to her werewolf books with a vengeance. In the mid-nineteenth century the werewolves have succeeded in hiding themselves among the humans all too well. Interbreeding with human has caused their numbers to fall toward extinction. For the survival of their species, the Earls of Greyburn have devoted themselves to the Cause (arranged marriages between those families whose members can Change). What place does love have in their fight for survival? Read and find out.
Rating: Summary: Best Book I've Read In A Long Time Review: Ms. Krinard captured my interest with this book and a wonderful book it was, so much so, I went out and purchased the rest. I'm now reading the sequel "Once A Wolf" and look forward to the next book in the series.Ms. Krinard can't write fast enough as far as I'm concerned. It only took me a few short evenings to finish reading the first book and I'm now awaiting the next one.
Rating: Summary: Great Read!! Intriguing, Exciting and Well Written Review: Outstanding and well written by Susan Krinard. Many times, I found myself thinking about the book. Couldn't wait to pick up the book once I left work each day. I found the characters very colorful. You can relate to each character's personality. I loved reading this book. The only thought about the leader of the wearwolves, Branden, I had was why did Branden have to be blind? Why couldn't he somehow get back his eyesight in some bazar situation? I truly enjoyed reading this book and highly recommend it.
Rating: Summary: Dark, brooding and a good beginning to the trilogy Review: Susan Krinard has a beautiful writing style. Her books are meaty and always contain complicated characters who really draw you in. Touch of the Wolf, the beginning of her new historical werewolf trilogy, is no exception. For me, the love and laughter lover, this book weighed in a little too heavily on the angst side but still comes recommended to those of you who prefer a dark, brooding and outwardly cold hero (until the heroine breaks down his barriers). It's rich with description and is a book that you can easily lose yourself in. I'm anxiously awaiting the next one.
Rating: Summary: Susan Krinard is to werewolves as Shakespeare is to sonnets. Review: Susan Krinard has created real magic in Touch of the Wolf. Braden and Cassidy lived and breathed for me, and the story kept me awake nights long after I'd finished reading it. But even that pales beside this novelist's special gift. Seemingly without effort, Ms. Krinard creates the willing suspension of disbelief. And for readers, it just doesn't get any better than that. Read this book. You'll be glad you did.
Rating: Summary: Great book!!! Can't wait for sequel!! Review: Susan Krinard has done it again!! Look out fans this is another great one! This is the story of Cassidy Holt who was orphaned at a young age and raised by human relatives despite her werewolf blood. When old enough Cassidy goes in search of her werewolf relatives with only a name her mother had left her....What she finds is conflicting emotions towards her family and the head of that family....Does she truly belong???
Rating: Summary: A truly wonderful read! Review: The book was spectacular! The characters were alive and vibrate, and well written. The author did a wonderful job mixing the fantasy in with the romance. I am really looking forward to the next book in the trilogy.
Rating: Summary: Another incredible romance from an extraordinary author! Review: The first Krinard novel I read was Prince of Wolves, and I promptly ordered the rest of her backlist because I loved it so much. I was thrilled to discover that each novel she's written is as wonderful. There are some authors whose work you read and the story lingers in your mind for days afterwards: the characters are so real, the plot so engrossing, the sensual chemistry so HOT, between a hero-to-die for and an intelligent, courageous heroine. Susan Krinard is that kind of author--she writes a book you just can't seem to put down and when you do you're already reaching for her next book. Touch of the Wolf is fantastic! Read anything by Sue Krinard and treat yourself to a magnificent escape into a romantic, paranormal fantasy that only Ms. Krinard could write so well.
Rating: Summary: Attention grabbing yet lacking. Review: The story is attention grabbing yet I felt that it was missing something. I liked the book but I think that it did not have enough passion for the love that these two people shared.
