Review
In book one of the Adirondack Pack series, Sadie James is
suffering from PTSD after a traumatizing event a year earlier and has just
moved to a small mountain town in upstate New York for a fresh start. While
exploring the woods around her new cabin, she stumbles upon a snarling,
drooling wolf and fears that her life is finally over. Instead of attacking
her, the wolf attacks another wolf, saving Sadie, and then follows her home.
Sadie begins to think of the wolf, which she named Fred, as her pet, but still
fears him a little since he2527s a wild animal.

Tyson Cartwright was once the pack enforcer but gave up
his pack after a personal tragedy. Now he runs wild in the forest in his wolf
form and suspects he2527s falling deep into madness, but then his human side
starts to reemerge as he finds a new purpose in living with Sadie.

I really liked Sadie and Tyson. They2527re both emotionally
damaged from past experiences and found a kindred spirit in each other. Sadie
and Tyson (as Fred) became good friends, but she didn2527t find out Fred was
really a shifter until the very end of the book. Because of that, there wasn2527t
much romance and no sex scenes in this story. Their story continues in another
book, however, and I2527m sure that story will show them falling in love.

I enjoyed the pack dynamics and how the wolves interacted
with the humans in their town. There are great secondary characters, like Lee,
Owen, and Vince, and I2527d like to know more about them.

This shifter story is a little different from what I2527m
used to reading. It2527s separated into three main parts with individual chapters.
Part one is mostly in Sadie2527s POV and sometimes in the villain2527s. Part two is
in Tyson2527s POV and shows everything that2527s already happened in part one, but
from the hero2527s perspective. Part three takes place where both the other parts
end and is in both the H/h2527s POV.

Though I enjoyed this story, there are some typos that led
to confusion at times. There are also unanswered questions, but those will
probably be taken care of in the next book. Anyway, the overall plot is solid
and the characters well rounded and likable.
