Eileen Wilks-- "Tempting Danger" (Lupi series)

synopsis:
Lily Yu is a San Diego police detective investigating a series of grisly murders that appear to be the work of a werewolf. To hunt down the killer, she must infiltrate the clans. Only one man can help her--a werewolf named Rule Turner, a prince of the lupi, whose charismatic presence disturbs Lily. Rule has his own reasons for helping the investigation--reasons he doesn't want to share with Lily. Logic and honor demand she keep her distance, but the attraction between them is immediate and devastating--and beyond human reason. Now in a race to fend off evil, Lily finds herself in uncharted territory, tested as never before, and, at her back, a man she's not sure she can trust....

***took me a while to get absorbed by this book. Being the first in the series, Wilks has to "set it up" so to speak, and some of the terms used by the lupi still aren't clear. But once the story starts to move along I found Lily and Rule a charming couple. I do think Lily accepted the idea of being "chosen" a little to easy, but we will see what happens in the next book. This is a different kind of paranormal story, all kinds of characters exist, it's not just about werewolves. Give it a try, its not a keepsake book, but a good story for a sunday afternoon. I have now wish listed the rest of the series.
