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. It is approximately 52,000 words (several days worth of reading or so).
