Up until a year ago Melinda Cooper was something of an outcast - a skinny, shy, introverted teenage girl with few interests and even fewer friends. Now she's the star player of her school's lacrosse team and counts the most popular girls in school as her allies. What's her secret? She's a werewolf. So are most of her friends. It's a long story. However, balancing a life of pep rallies and practice SATs with secret pack meetings and hunting trips has proven to be anything but easy. Things were complicated enough when she was the only lycanthrope in town. Now Melinda has to worry not only about her own welfare but that of her pack mates, some of whom resent her self-appointed leadership. Add a new romantic interest who has no idea his girlfriend grows fangs every full moon and an unwilling convert to lycanthropy with secrets of her own and you have a recipe for disaster. Adolescence has never been this wild.
