⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
Metis constructs this tale by weaving together disparate elements without losing her distinct style. The story reveals that the brother’s symptoms were early stages of transformation into a lycanthrope. Luna’s experience shifts from grief to physical transformation, revealing the true nature of his death. The tension builds as she prepares for a choice that could transform or destroy her. It may not satisfy readers seeking pure medical thrillers or straightforward contemporary romance, as the supernatural elements are central to the conflict. The narrative demands attention to how Luna’s daily life contrasts with her nocturnal shifts into something sinister.
