From a dazzlingly talented young writer, a haunting and original supernatural romance in the vein of TWILIGHT.For years, Grace has watched the wolves in the woods behind her house. One yellow-eyed wolf--her wolf--is a chilling presence she can't seem to live without. Meanwhile, Sam has lived two lives: In winter, the frozen woods, the protection of the pack, and the silent company of a fearless girl. In summer, a few precious months of being human . . . until the cold makes him shift back again. Now, Grace meets a yellow-eyed boy whose familiarity takes her breath away. It's her wolf. It has to be. But as winter nears, Sam must fight to stay human--or risk losing himself, and Grace, forever.

Beautiful, delicious and one I read again and again
5By SnowbirdaddictBecause of my ADHD I often devour books, skipping words as I try to inhale a story. This book is one that gets between with every reading. I love the way Maggie Stiefvater writes and brings me into the feelings of the story. I’m not a writer and don’t know how she does it. But her writing is delicious.Awwwwww❤️🐺🐺👌🏻

2By NskdmckandienxlqbenxLet's just say I've never read a book where the two characters were "in love" with eachother so quickly...Shiver
5By CcjarnaginThis book is amazing like omg someone should really do a movie I swear I wanna see the characters come to life I loved the first book and I'm on the second one!!!😘😘😘😘😘😘 one of the best books I've ever read!!Too amaze
5By Kitty7171ALL THE BOOKS WERE AMAZING. In Fact I'm going to read the series again after I finish my other books! P.s I don't think anyone would mind if you made a fourth book with grace and Sam other than sinner! Pps sinner was amaze too!Great book!
4By Zombie person with petThis was overall a great book, the only problem is in the description of the book it never mentions love. I was hoping the book would be a bit more exciting though. This is a great book though, if your into this type of stuff!Alright
3By TapaderoThis book was okay. It started out very good but it became slow in the middle. I have read the Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare and this book was a let down after those. Still they had a good story but it was a little predictable.3.5/5 stars!
4By Important personsI read a lot of fanfictions stories from wattpad about werewolves I have to say the writing was beautiful, like a poetry something like that? This book did not make me cry. I like this book but i dont really enjoy or love it as much as i want. The calm and quiet atmosphere in this book kinda meh for me, maybe because of the writing. I dont like the first 100 pages of this book, mainly because of the main character. I am not sure if i should recommend this but please do check it out if you like werewolves and dont expect a lot of actions, its not.Excellent
5By Miss the Real ThingI love these books and will continue to read them repeatedly until I can finally do so with a steady heartbeat.Tissues needed
5By BkscromeryLooking for a good cry...you will get it here! Loved it!Amazing!
5By Mommabear9013Book was incredible! It kept me up at night reading, made it almost impossible to put down. I can't wait to read the next book in the series!Make a movie for this series!
5By CristianoFan7I would love to see this as a movie! It was a great book, going to read Linger next.Pretty good but could use some tweaking...
3By Y-laniThe story line is good. The writer is talented with words but it gets a little confusing because the story is being told from the point of view of both main characters. The transition between each characters thoughts are at times so sudden that I sometimes get confused about who is speaking. I think that it should have been told from one characters point Of view instead of switching back and forth. The ending was a let down for me since there was no explanation to make the ending believable. What happened and how did it end up that way? Sorry, I don't want to ruin the ending for anyone but if you read the book you will see what I'm talking about once you get to the end.Love💕
5By Kaitlynkaitlyn30I love this series! Second favorite series!!
