What lies beneath

Daniel Morning seems perfect — handsome, charismatic, intelligent. But living up to everyone's expectations has cost him the right to make his own decisions. The urge to shatter those expectations is beginning to gnaw at his insides.

Then Daniel meets Misty. She's smoky, rebellious, tender...and much more. She decides to let him into her pack of outcasts — and in on their little secret: She and her friends have learned to shapeshift, and have been prowling the night as wolves.

Daniel soon falls in love with the primal sensation of shifting, just as he's falling in love with Misty. The freedom to follow his most basic instincts is like nothing he's ever felt. But Daniel will slowly come to realize that such freedom comes at a price....

Review:

"Hot, wrenching, and wise, this book is fantastic!"

-- Holly Black

Daniel starts out basically, spineless. then he finds Misty and, not only does he find love, he finds problems he never thought he'd face. The writing in this book is funny, creative, and amazing! i love this book!
