📝 Description: Werewolf Nights

Mari Hamill presents a narrative centered on Catherine Mercy, a bakery owner in a small town haunted by personal loss. Her high school sweetheart vanished years ago, and her husband died in a boating accident, leaving her wary of new romance. Greg Byron arrives as a movie star filming a production about the Wereville werewolf legend. When the original female lead disappears, Catherine steps into the role, bringing her closer to Greg despite initial deception. The story shifts from romantic tension to supernatural peril when Greg is bitten by a wolf. He and Catherine, along with friend Steve, who studies werewolf lore, must determine if the local myth holds truth. If the legend is real, Greg will transform during the full moon, threatening lives. Catherine faces a critical choice: assist Greg in breaking the curse or protect her heart from further pain. Hamill combines elements of fantasy and intrigue to explore themes of grief, trust, and survival against a backdrop of small-town secrets.
