Silver-White
The Great North Woods Pack #1
by Shawn Underhill
“The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,But I have promises to keep,And miles to go before I sleep.”~ Robert Frost
Evie’s family has been holding out on her …
Big time.
On an unexpected visit to her grandparents’ house in New Hampshire’s secluded North Woods, the sixteen-year-old literally runs into the truth of the long-hidden family secrets, and finds herself thrust without warning into the clandestine world of the Great North Pack—a wild and exhilarating world of rugged beauty, heart-pounding adventures, and long nights running under a sea of stars … but as she’s set to discover, a world also fraught with potential dangers lurking in the shadows.

"Simply
put, this book was amazing. I've read more fantasy novels than I can
count, but this one is certainly one of the best. The emotions portrayed
throughout the book manifest in the reader, and the imagery is
beautiful. The heroine isn't some wishy-washy pansy that screams at
everything, and the focus of the story isn't on some unbelievably
beautiful teenage girl who suddenly becomes the biggest, baddest member
of her species falling in love with some big, bad, sexy member of her
newfound species. It's about a girl becoming something she never knew
existed, finding her place within the pack family she values more than
ever before, and an age-old feud that threatens everything she loves.
The story is fast-paced and gripping, and the purely wild emotions the
heroine feels when with her pack come up off the pages and make the
reader smile."
-Morgan-Leigh, Amazon reviewer
Excerpt:
Her
head was turned up to the sky, her ears pricked, waiting for the next
lines. But instead of the next line of a melancholy song, she heard next
a sound far too close for comfort. From directly behind her a sudden
swishing sound sent her spinning on her heels. As she whirled and faced
the house, a bright shape flashed into her line of sight. It was her
grandfather, robed in white, suddenly standing just this side of the
glass door.
“It’s time,” he said in a low, serious tone.
“N—now?” Evie stuttered. He had appeared so quickly, and her nerves were so on edge, that he had startled her.
“Now,” he answered coolly. “Do you understand how young birds learn to fly?”
“What?” she gasped.
“Do as I say.”
“Do what?” Evie began, but before she could form the words her grandfather was gone.
In
one fluid motion he had stepped from his robe, dropped in height,
lightened in color, spread in width, and in a blink transformed into a
massive white wolf; Evie felt his great weight creaking the deck boards.
Slightly smaller than the wolf of her dream, this wolf too had eyes
that absorbed all of the night’s small light and reflected it in stormy
pools of green. With sides swelling from his first deep breaths of the
night, he stared into her with those piercing eyes. A deep rumble
started low in his belly.
congrats to Shawn on the new release! This sounds fantastic :)
