From a dazzlingly talented young writer, a haunting and original supernatural romance in the vein of TWILIGHT.
For years, Grace has watched the wolves in the woods behind her house. One yellow-eyed wolf--her wolf--is a chilling presence she can't seem to live without. Meanwhile, Sam has lived two lives: In winter, the frozen woods, the protection of the pack, and the silent company of a fearless girl. In summer, a few precious months of being human . . . until the cold makes him shift back again.
Now, Grace meets a yellow-eyed boy whose familiarity takes her breath away. It's her wolf. It has to be. But as winter nears, Sam must fight to stay human--or risk losing himself, and Grace, forever.

Grace has always loved wolves her whole life. They lurk in the woods near her house, and she has watched them for years now. Over the years, she has "claimed" a wolf with yellow eyes, since he feels familiar to her, but she doesn't know why. Meanwhile, Sam has always lived a double life. Most of the time he lives as a wolf due to being bitten by one when he was one. He is a wolf when it is cold, and for a short time every year, he transforms into a human. Sam has also had a crush on Grace, and he watches her when he is a wolf. Even when he is a human, he has never risked talking to Grace. One year, when he turns back into a human, he decides to talk to Grace, and it pays off. The two fall in love, but that's when Sam and Grace are given the news that Sam might not change back into a human next year. Grace is determined to find out a way for Sam to stay, but Sam is getting weaker from the cold. Time is running out. Can Grace save Sam from is fate? Or will Sam stay a wolf forever? Find out by reading Shiver, which I give 5 stars. I recommend this book to whoever loves a good read that you won't be able to put down.
sooo good just the right touch of mystery and romance!
it was ok yeah but awesome
so sad :(
It's an OK series. The beginning was tedious and I lost interest during part of it.
Cool!I haven't really read any vampire series yet like "Twilight"This will be interesting!
Grace is a normal teenage girl. She goes to school, she makes dinner, normal teenage things! Well some teenagers aren't such big admirers of volves, but thats okay, because her wolve admires her too. This is a magical love story about the struggle of two different spiecies. A human and a where wolve that will not be seperated
This trilogy makes me cry... so good. You can never put the book down. From the moment i read the first page of the first book, i HAD to finish the trilogy.
