The Mythology department at prestigious Harvard University
is tiny—and Mackenzie Duncan has just been selected as one of the lucky few.
Her love for myths and legends is deep, but she never thought any of it could
be real.
After being attacked by a large wolf while walking home alone, Mackenzie realizes something is not right. She heals quickly, has suddenly become super strong, and is experiencing mood swings that can't possibly be normal. The myths she's studying aren't myths at all. Werewolves are real, and she's one of them. Fear of what she is, and who she might hurt sends Mackenzie running from the life she’s worked hard to build–and straight into the arms of a handsome Were named Geoff and into the home of his pack. Living with her new pack takes the edge off her confusion and self-loathing, but the arrival of new pack members changes the dynamic, and tests Geoff and Mackenzie’s growing relationship.
The hardest part of being a werewolf is to have no control and no memory of her time as a bloodthirsty beast. When a moon cycle passes, and she is actually able to remember bits and pieces of the night, she starts to ask questions, and the more questions she asks, the more she realizes she doesn’t like the answers. Can she set aside her own sense of morals to belong to a pack that is like a family or will she leave everything behind yet again in search of a life she can be proud of?

The Tempering is an original, exciting and fun paranormal read
that I believe all fans of the genre will get hooked on :)
Mackenzie has big dreams in life and even bigger plans. I mean, how many people can actually say they've been accepted to and are attending an Ivy League college...
Not that far into her first term of attendance. Everything changes for her and it's all because of a brief walk home, just a slight change in her everyday path and a wolf.
This was a great start to a new series. I hope the author releases the next to the series STAT!
