Wolf Shield — Maria Isabel Pita

A failed relationship encourages Audrey Goodrich to forgo London's big city stimulations and return to the more profound pleasures of her family's eighty acre estate in Mashbury, where she grew up alone with her father, a renowned historian. She was only eight-years-old when her mother, Wilona disappeared one night without a trace. Engaged in some serious soul-searching, Audrey finds herself distractingly attracted to her closest neighbor -- Jonathan Ackart, just returned home from a long tour of duty in Afghanistan. Whatever emotional scars he might have suffered remain a daunting mystery, as does the wolf-like dog she begins catching glimpses of in the woods surrounding her home.

Then a letter miraculously arrives from Wilona asking for a chance to explain why she abandoned her family more than two decades ago, and commanding her daughter not tell anyone where she's going. Audrey hates lying to her father but she can't resist the desire to learn the truth, or the intensely charismatic man who delivered her mother's message. What she doesn't know is that a battle is being fought for her heart by two eternal forces at war with each other, one entrusted to guard her and the other determined to possess her, body and soul.

Reviews

The introduction to a series… this is an interesting story that has some very good elements. I liked Audrey's character… the two male main characters are very interesting and mysterious and the story ends with a cliff hanger...
