The Wolves of Mercy Falls by Maggie Stiefvater
shiver
Sam's not just a normal boy - he has a secret. During the summer he walks and talks as a human, but when the cold comes, he runs with his pack as a wolf. Grace has spent years watching the wolves in the woods behind her house - but never dreamed that she would fall in love with one of them. Now that they've found each other, the clock ticks down on what could be Grace and Sam's only summer together.
linger
Can Grace and Sam last? Each will have to fight to stay together - whether it means a reckoning with his werewolf past for Sam, or for Grace, facing a future that is less and less certain. Enter Cole, a new wolf who is wrestling with his own demons, embracing the life of a wolf while denying the ties of being human. For Grace, Sam, and Cole, life is harrowing and euphoric, enticing and alarming. As their world falls apart, love is what lingers. But can it be enough?
forever
In Maggie Stiefvater's SHIVER, Grace and Sam found each other. In LINGER, they fought to be together. Now, in FOREVER, the stakes are even higher than before. Wolves are being hunted. Lives are being threatened. And love is harder and harder to hold on to as death comes closing in.
* “A lyrical tale of alienated werewolves and first love .Stiefvater
skillfully increases the tension throughout; her take on werewolves is
interesting and original while her characters are refreshingly willing to use
their brains to deal with the challenges they face.” Publishers Weekly

Up—Grace, Daniel, and Jude were best friends until the night three years ago
when Jude came home covered with blood and Daniel disappeared without a trace.
Now mysterious happenings are taking place in the neighborhood. Daniel is back
and Grace involves herself in his life again—but this time it's more than just
friendship. Grace and Jude's father is a church pastor who lives his faith.
Daniel had lived with the Divines for a time after being removed from an abusive
father. When Daniel reveals to Grace that he is a werewolf, Grace and her father
work to free him from this curse through their knowledge of a little known
legend. But is Daniel or someone else responsible for those disappearances and
animal mutilations? It is up to Grace and Daniel to make sense of that night
three years ago and solve the new mystery. The story's saving grace is the role
faith and forgiveness play in making this somewhat more than your average YA
paranormal romance. Narrator Eileen Stevens provides plenty of suspense. Primary
characters are well-defined and voiced, though secondary characters are fairly
one dimensional. The mystery and energy of the story are heightened through
Steven's use of pacing, breath, and pitch. The story drags somewhat in the
middle, but builds to a conclusion that suggests a sequel.—Ann Brownson,
