Cry Wolf by Patricia BriggsMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Cry Wolf is the 1st book in Patricia Briggs Alpha and Omega Series, which concentrates on Charles Conrick, who we met previously in the her Mercy Thompson Series.
This also is the start of Charles, the only true born werewolf and son of the Marok and Anna Latham, turned werewolf against her will…
Whilst on a mission for his father to track down a rogue wolf, he’s asked to find Anna and bring her back to their pack.
Anna Latham has suffered physical and mental abuse by the members and the leader of the pack that turned her. When Charles meets her, he not only realizes her special abilities – she’s an omega wolf, who is able to calm wolves – but that his and her wolves have mated…something extraordinary as it’s usually as humans that they mate and then as wolves.
Anna has struggled coming to terms being a wolf and her treatment by her pack has caused her pain and she finds it hard to trust Charles at first….afraid of his possessiveness, his dominant side….and at the same time, unable to understand her feelings and connection to him.
The attraction between Charles and Anna unnerves them both. Anna feels torn between feeling safe with Charles and at the same time fearing him. He feels a loss of control by his feelings for her and the need to protect her….The best part of this book was the development of their love story…..Anna’s growing strength and beginning to trust and believe in that there was good in others and not everyone was like her pack members……and being able to find someone who cared and loved her as much as she did him…
Charles, who has also distanced himself from others, slowly begins to get closer to someone in his life…..
The plot is filled with suspense, action, mystery interwoven with characters, old and new that are totally fascinating and engaging…werewolves, fae, witches, vampires…….
I loved this book…..and ending off my review with one of my favorite words in the story….
