Description

<p>When Jessica Bryant pesters her wealthy parents to allow her to have a dog as a pet, the answer is a resounding &quot;No&quot;; but they soon come to regret their decision when thier home is broken into one evening whilst they are out and their daughter kidnapped and held for ransom. The kidnappers, in the form of four seedy and incompetent characters wearing Disneyland-type masks, take her hostage and keep her incarcerated in a place from which there appears to be no escape. However, they reckon without the resourcefulness of our heroine, and the courage of a wonderful stray dog who comes to her aid and whom she names 'Murdo'. And so begins an exciting and humurous accounting of the couples' adventures together as they consistently foil and outwit the abductors whilst on the run together.<br /> This is a lovely story of the friendship between a girl and a dog, bringing out themes of responsibility, camaraderie, redemption, salvation and self-sacrifice. It includes some wonderful dialogue sequences as Jessica teaches her new four-legged friend how to communicate with her, with additional delightful conversations between the animals when a rabbit and a sparrow join forces with them in an effort to outwit the kidnappers and restore Jessica safely back to her parents' home. </p>

Story Behind The Book

Reviews

<span style="font-size:18px;"><em>Werewolf Sanctuary <em>by Eva Gordon <br /> Paranormal Romance- May 6th, 2009<br /> 4 stars<br /><br /> I typically tend to be more passionate about reading vampire novels when it comes to the supernatural fiction collection.   But I could not help but become intrigued with this shifter book!  It had all the elements that grab your attention.  I found it an exhilarating page turner from the beginning to end.  <br /><br /> Werewolf Sanctuary begins with a burst of action that kept me hooked!  The author keeps the reader engrossed by explaining the main character’s (Wyatt Weylyn) origin which was highly fascinating.   At Wyatt’s wolf sanctuary, the wolf cubs have been succumbing to various ailments including death.  Wyatt is on a mission to hopefully cure and resolve this issue. <br /><br /> Maddie is a doctor in the biology of wolves and has a specialty in their diseases as well.   She was a wonderful character.  I felt deeply connected to her since she went through what many single women go through before they find their soul mates.  I particularly was attracted to Maddie’s  down to earth personality and courage handling sudden new changes to her life in ways she never expected to happen.  <br /><br /> How do their lives intertwine?  You MUST read it to find out.  This is a guaranteed enjoyable read!   There is a generous amount of romance, action, intrigue and paranormal that will keep you energized and wanting more! <br /><br /> Reviewed by Monica from the </em>Bookaholics Romance Book Club<br /><br />  <br /><br /> Werewolf Sanctuary</em> is an amazing tale,intriguing and oh so believable - from the first paragraph to the last, this story is an entertaining journey into the the lycan world...the characters have such defined and believable personalities - the surroundings are so beautifully shared - <em>Werewolf Sanctuary</em> has more than enough to give readers a page turner, satisfying experience. I look forward to more of the Wolf Maiden Chronicles...
