Bad Blood - L. A. Banks

This is the first novel in the Crimson Moon Series.

Sasha is a shadow wolf and she works for the US military. Because of certain circumstances, she realizes that the world she lives in is not as it seems and she is not sure she likes it. Being able to trust only a select few, she must work in secret to bring down a threat to humanity.

Bad Blood is not a bad book. Yes, there are steamy scenes between Sasha and Max, the action is fast paced and the twists are interesting, but I felt, at the end, that it was not anything new. Even so, I would like to see which direction the story goes when the second book in the series is released this fall.

This story reminded me in many ways of the Darkwing Chronicles by Savannah Russe and of the Riley Jenson series by Keri Arthur. Of the three, I think Keri Arthur's world is the best one.
