Wolfsbane (Nightshade # 2)By Andrea Cremer

8:40 AM | Posted by Dawn & Winnie Book Reviews

Wolfsbane (Nightshade #2) When Calla Tor wakes up in the lair of the Searchers, her sworn enemies, she’s certain her days are numbered. But then the Searchers make her an offer—one that gives her the chance to destroy her former masters and save the pack—and the man—she left behind. Is Ren worth the price of her freedom? And will Shay stand by her side no matter what? Now in control of her own destiny, Calla must decide which battles are worth fighting and how many trials true love can endure and still survive.

In this second trilogy, Wolfsbane takes Calla into a different path. She gets to choose her destiny, but at what cost? Wolfbane begins right at the very end of nightshade. Calla wakes up from her coma, finding herself in Searchers territory. She is safe; shay is also safe, but her pack and Ren, isn't safe! she loathes thinking what’s happening in recompense for her traitorous deception! Guilt ridden, Callas is desperate to find her way back to “Vail”, to save her friends, family, pack members… Ren, but the Searchers has other agenda… An alliance! They need Calla and her pack as allies in their war against the Keepers. I love the intensity of this book. It was humorous, thrilling, sexy and action packed! Secret were relived, new strong alliances was boldly formed. Histories were reenacted and precious lives were lost, but all in all it was an amazing read!!! I loved it. The cliffhanger was heartbreaking but expected!!! Creamer knows how to keep her fans panting for more!!! And I must say, it will be a long wait until Bloodrose - to be release in 2012.

Nightshade (Nightshade #1) By Andrea Cremer
Calla Tor has always known her destiny: After graduating from the Mountain School, she'll be the mate of sexy alpha wolf Ren Laroche and fight with him, side by side, ruling their pack and guarding sacred sites for the Keepers. But when she violates her masters' laws by saving a beautiful human boy out for a hike, Calla begins to question her fate, her existence, and the very essence of the world she has known. By following her heart, she might lose everything— including her own life. Is forbidden love worth the ultimate sacrifice?

I stayed up late to finish this book, I mean until 4am – wee hours of the morning. And you know what I thought?

LOVED IT.

Heart pounding, mouth hanging, on the edge on my sit, trying to picture the whole situation… in my mind and wondering how the book is going to end! And off course the cliffhanger is enthralling! A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!! THE HEROINE. Calla is a sexy alpha female… She is not one of those annoying weakling female who gets a guy to fight her battles. (Absolutely Not)! She is a lover and a fight and I NEVER thought those qualities would mix … so potently.

*THE PLOT. There are CONSPIRACY, LIES and DECEIT in the plot.

*ACTION AND SUSPENSE. YES!!! Definitely

*ROMANCE… CHECK, A love triangle yes, but the choice was easy! She (Calla) did NOT draw out the whole who the choose thing.

4 stars!!!!

A must read! Nightshade is unique and different. I have read lodes of books BUT this book was beyond my imagination. All I have to say is that it will be a long wait for 2011 (this year, thank the gods) when Wolfsbane; is set to be released. I can't wait to read it
