Ah! Blood and Chocolate! A great title for a great book! A book about acceptance and self image with a twist.

Vivian is a stunningly beautiful young woman with a loving and accepting family ... most of the month. Because Vivian is not in anyway "normal", her family call themselves loupe garou, you on the other hand may know them better as werewolves. With her double identity, Vivian doesn't fit in with her teenage peers and nor does she feel comfortable with her "pack". This is because she is the only young female and she is expected choose one of the five male loupe garou that she has known since childhood as her mate. But these five have a cloudy past and Vivian is not sure that she can overlook what they did. The five are not the only ones in the pack after her, Vivian's mother's current man, Gabriel, is showing unwanted interest as well. Gabriel, a cocky and annoyingly self-assured hunk-of-a-werewolf, is about 7 years Vivian's elder and is the favourite for pack leader.

Vivian's problems only increase when she meets a boy from her school who she believes is the only one who can truly understand her. And her love for him grows, she is torn apart by the reality that she will forever have to keep a secret from him, or does she....

Even as Vivian struggles with the decision of whether or not to reveal herself, there is another more pressing matter on the rise, humans are being brutally murdered and the pack is beginning to suspect that there is a rogue werewolf on the lose.

A great read for all horror and fantasy lovers alike.

Vivian is not your typical sixteen-year-old teenage girl, she is a werewolf. Also, untypical of her species, she falls in love with a human, Aidan, who is referred to as "meat boy" in her werewolf world that frowns upon the relationship. Vivian makes an effort to resist her werewolf nature and blend into the human world despite warnings from her pack.

Vivian's struggle to be "normal" mirrors the wishes of all teenagers to blend in and to be accepted by their peers. This story is a suspenseful, page turner that is written so well that each time Vivian turns into a werewolf and runs through the woods, the reader "feels" it.
