I really loved this book. I hope the series is as good. Sam is the werewolf owner of the bookstore and bar, so of course I love her. She was severely tortured and turned to a werewolf, and now she hides out in her store. She has friends who are a demon, a vampire, and a witch, but she is mostly just hiding from her past. When a body washes up at her bar and has the same type of scars she has, her worlds collide. She has to decide if she's going to live her life or continue to hide. I love Sam as a character;  she's flawed and so scarred she thinks she's ugly, so she hides in books. Very relatable for me. I will definitely read the next one. And I think Clive is my new book boyfriend!
