Synopsis

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The first book of a thrilling supernatural romance series about a teenage girl who defies the laws of the wolf pack in pursuit of true love.

“A glittering, dark gem.” —Cynthia Leitich Smith, New York Times bestselling author of Eternal

A wolf pack divided. A heart torn in two. How will Calla ever choose?

Calla Tor is the alpha female of a shape-shifting wolf pack. She is destined to marry Ren Laroche, the pack’s alpha male. Together, they would rule their pack, guarding sacred sites for the Keepers. But when Calla saves a beautiful human boy who captures her heart, she begins to question everything she’s ever known about her world—her fate, her existence, and the orders the Keepers have asked her to follow. With her wolf pack divided, Calla knows she will have to make a choice. But will she follow her heart if it means losing everything, including her own life?

Nightshade tells a dark and intimate tale of power, destiny, and identity that begs the question: is forbidden love worth the ultimate sacrifice?

Usually, as a reviewer of YA and one who attracts a relative amount of trolls, I get told often that someone as OLD as me shouldn't be reviewing YA books. And at the staggeringly long-lived age of 25, I might as well be on Kidney dialysis and walking around with a zimmerframe to these people. Coincid......more

Goodreads review by Kay on March 28, 2010

I absolutely LOVED Nightshade! I have to admit I'm not usually a huge vampire or werewolf fan (or wolf fan, as the case may be here), but I was completely blown off my rocker by this fabulous debut. If I could give it six stars, I would. SO GOOD. Calla is one of my favorite YA heroines of all time -......more
