Who's afraid of the big, bad wolf? From the outside, librarian Megan Upton appears to live a quiet, painfully ordinary life. She's lonely, but she's content, more or less-that is, when she isn't being haunted by wolves. She sees their hulking shadows in blizzards, and their shapes stalk her dreams. Even worse, it's a family affliction: her beloved grandmother, whose sanity seems to be slowly slipping away, raves about seeing phantom wolves, too. When a twist of fate brings the beautiful, enigmatic, hungry-eyed Kara into Megan's life, Megan's wolf sightings intensify, even as her attraction to Kara grows. Soon, despite the wintry weather, love begins to warm Megan's heart. But sharp-toothed danger lurks everywhere. One dark, snowy night at her grandmother's isolated cabin in the mountains, Megan will have to confront the wolves-and the truth about her family, Kara, and herself-face to face. Part heart-pounding mystery, part epic romance, the novel Big, Bad Wolf, will leave you spellbound. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

A woman grows up on a mountain with her grandmother. No mention is made of her parents. At least, I don't recall mention. And yes, that kept popping up in my mind, the - where the heck are the parents? question. She lives semi-wild and without much in the way of fear. Until, some event or series of barely remembered events changed her. These are remembrances of a woman grown, though, since the book is about the woman as a woman.
A woman who spends a good amount of time fearing wolves. Which is natural, since she spends seemingly every night dreaming nightmarish dreams about wolves. Wolves with blood dripping down their lips.
Somewhat magically, an unknown woman turns up in this small town. She's apparently gorgeous. And zeroed in on getting to know Megan better. On a personal and physical level. Her name is Kara. Which Megan calls exotic or something like that. Seriously? Exotic? I went to school with two people named Kara, and a third might have lived in my neighborhood, but of a different age group. Exotic? Hmms.
There were certain vaguely strange things like that that pop up. Like a gorgeous woman suddenly turning up in a town with, apparently, two lesbians. And she just happens to be one herself. And has a deep interest in the librarian (Megan, who works as a librarian). Then there's the incredibly weird living situation Kara eventually reveals but I won't go beyond this to detail.
Well . . . darn. I mispelled spoiler. Um . . . hope no one actually reads this in feed or mails - the review before spoiler got fixed. Sorry about that. mmphs. (
