I'm not sure why but I while I liked this I didn't get as pulled into it as I thought I would. It was a good book, but not one that pulled me in as much as I hoped. 
 I liked the premise of Shifters living in towns and the family dynamic. I loved that Kim was a strong female lead, but what hurt the story for me was her naivete of the way shifters were treated by humans...It seemed disconnected almost and didn't fit with her. 
 I liked that there was the inner tension of the pack but the suspense seemed muted, even the "thugs" ended up being decent guys helping with the search for a child and displaying affection. It was odd for me. 
 I will be continuing the series, and I enjoyed reading it, but overall I think I was expecting a little more suspense.
