Publisher's Summary

Sometimes it’s harder to teach a young dog new tricks.

That’s why werewolves embark on a Howling: a three-year rite of passage in which they’re sent to a group residence to wrestle with their wolfy instincts and assimilate into the Wider World. But Tanner Araya’s Howling is almost over, and he could be called back to his remote pack at any moment. His 21st birthday might be his last chance to act on his strongest instinct and finally kiss Chase Denney.

Chase is RA at the Howling residence affectionately dubbed "the Doghouse", and he takes his job seriously. So seriously that when he realized he was developing feelings for a resident, he forced himself to keep Tanner at a distance. But now that Tanner’s 21, he’s not Chase’s charge any longer. They could be friends or - if Chase is lucky - something more. At least until they both return to their home packs for good, as tradition demands.

It would take a miracle for them to get together - especially when the other Doghouse werewolves insist on "helping".

Warning: Many frisbees are harmed in this story, forgiveness is not always easier than permission, and the five-second rule does not apply.

Fun addition but not a standalone

Werewolf Chase Denney has his hands full as resident assistant at the Doghouse, the finishing school for young werewolves. He’s sweet on one of his charges, Tanner Araya, who is just turning twenty one. The celebration at a local supe watering hole goes awry, but it’s only the start of the misfortune as attempts are made on Tanner’s life. This first in the Mythmatched series follows on from the Fae Out of Water and Supernatural Selection series. It’s as sweet, fun, and creatively interesting as anything by EJ Russell but also suffers from the same thing, ie., characters from earlier books making confusing cameos. I’ve listened to all the previous books over the last couple of months and I still find it hard to keep track of who’s who. Apart from that, it’s great. The young werewolves, especially the irrepressible Jordan, and the action and romance all kept me entertained. Audio narrator Greg Boudreaux is always excellent and I loved his performance here.
