[.uk] Wolverton Blood (Wolverton Shifter) (ISBN 1599982927)

Wolverton Blood-Joyfully Recommended:
Timber Wolverton has been summoned to a town that bears her name and to a family she never knew she had. Timber is special and she hopes that this is finally the place that she truly belongs. Kane Wolverton enjoys being in control; he controls his family, his Grandfather's misfits, and everything that he comes in contact with. Kane and his family are special, just like Timber, and he will not let anyone or anything ruin his family - especially the people his Grandfather has called to Wolverton. Timber has high hopes for what she will find in Wolverton, but her visit is not off to a very good start. She gets attacked by a man from the bus she came into town on, and then she almost gets run over by a sexy but overbearing man. Kane cannot resist the beauty that he almost runs over, but when he finds out that she is one of his Grandfather's projects, he sees her as a "half-breed". Kane tries to resist her and is not successful; instead he feels an overwhelming urge to claim her as his. Kane and Timber find themselves right in the middle of chaos after Kane's Grandfather's will is read. The stipulations of the will are shocking and put a haze over all the emotions that Timber and Kane are feeling. To complicate matters further, the "half-breeds" are being killed and things just keep getting more and more out of control. Will Kane and Timber be able to put their differences aside to explore the feelings they have and will that be enough? Wolverton Blood was an excellent read!! Timber is a strong, sexy woman who just wants to find somewhere to call home and be accepted for who she is...differences and all. Kane is all Alpha-male and he has a hard time dealing with the feelings that Timber inspires in him. I positively enjoyed watching these two circle each other and come to grips with their volatile relationship. Brenda Williamson knows how to write with incredible emotion and her love scenes are hot, hot and hot!! Wolverton Blood is definitely going on my keeper shelf!! Gracie Reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

A Poorly written, a waste of money:
I love a good werewolf/shifter story. Unfortunately this was a terrible offering in the genre. Poor characterisation, and poorly written. The main characters have sex within minutes of meeting even though the male character treats the female character Timber really badly as soon as they meet. The characters names alone, smacks of the author's poor writing skills. I have made a note of the authors name so I can avoid her work in the future. I can't imagine why an publishers would print this rubbish.

Nothing left to imagine:
I thought that this would be an interesting story about werewolves and how they cope with their condition and of course how they found their mates. What I wasn't expecting was all the sex. It's basically a good story, but I thought that there should have been more to the story then Timber and Kane getting hot and heavy all the time. I would have liked to have learned more about the others that were part of the experiment. Instead they were all killed off before we could really learn anything about them or how they had coped with their animal natures. The only ones left were Timber and those malformed. Was Brenda planning on having a second book to go along with Wolverton Blood? If so it will be interesting to see what she comes up with since there are no more like Tmber alive to tell about. In all good consciousness I could not fully recommend this book for it's over all story, but the love scenes really get your attention. They were really HHHOOOTTT.

Slightly Disappointed:
I read the negative reviews on this book, but purchased it anyway and found myself slightly disappointed. I did enjoy the book somewhat, but I will probably not go back and read it again. The main female character Timber really did not have a backbone and Kane the main male character was a total jerk with the way he treated her. I kept putting the book down when it started to get on my nerves and then pick it up later on to continue reading to see if it would get better. The book is not a total disappointment, but I would not recommend purchasing it if your local library carries it since it is not a book worth reading more than once.

GREAT Premise Falls Short of Expectations:
I read the first chapter of this book and tossed it into my trade-in pile. If this pitiful excuse for a novel can get published, I have no worries about mine making its way past a publisher when the time comes. Ms. Williamson fails miserably in character development. Her quirky writing style is dissatisfying at best and her underdeveloped scenes miss the mark she sets for herself. Unless you're a speed reader, reading this book isn't worth your time. A pity really, because Ms. Williamson could have done so much with this very promising premise and its characters.
