Skyler Kingston practices veterinary medicine at the foothills of the Cascade Mountains in Washington State. She also suffers from a family curse that Norda the Norwegian witch in 1027 bestowed on her kin; she like those before her transforms from a human into a wolf when the full moon rises. Skyler fears the other segment of the curse; in four months when she turns thirty she joins her beloved brother Damien and the Others as she will become Sky the white wolf with no reverting back to her human form.
This month Skyler is late from her work and is caught outside during the conversion. A hunter wounds her thinking she is one of wolves killing local livestock. When a car hits Bubba the Pomeranian of six year old Cassandra, Skyler insures the tiny furrball is okay while the owner’s father Dr. Nathaniel Brady disrespects her. She soon learns that his reaction is out of fear for his daughter dying from a blood ailment. As Skyler and Nathan become acquainted he figures out her secret, but instead of being appalled with her as she expects he dreads the end of their loving relationship unless they find the cure.
This is a terrific werewolf romance starring two wonderful protagonists who struggle with the shapeshifting curse, his daughter’s illness and cures for both as well as the impact of any solutions on their loved ones. The story line is character driven by obviously the lead couple, but enhanced by support cast like Cassandra and Damien. Turing the werewolf legend upside down, sub-genre fans will hail TREACHEROUS LOVE as a splendid entry whose love between the prime players is symbolized by of all things a dishwasher.
