Surrounded by Woods by Mandy Harbin - 2 stars

This book is interesting in its premise, but fails to provide any sort of substantive plot line to engage the reader. The idea that only "attached" females can come to the Woods' home is negated by the fact that there is no explanation as to *how* any of the shifters would know whether she had a significant other or not. Also, the book promotes the idea that sexual attraction makes a longstanding relationship, when in fact it doesn't. There is no development of the relationship between the two protagonists; they just jump in the sack together. While the premise of the book had promise, the author fails to deliver any kind of solid story to the reader. Kinda Lame.
