The author keeps her supernatural world focused on just werewolves,
world-building that is nicely uncomplicated and all the more powerful
for it. Grounded in real-world wolf behaviour and a touch of the
magical, the werewolves here are captivating. Cameron and Faith's
adventures lead them into the heart of this supernatural world with
consequences that bond them and change their lives.
Containing dog-sled and snowmobile chases in the wilderness, "wolf
attacks", kidnappings and more, Legend of the White
Wolf
is very much a page-turner and a curl-up-on-your-couch read. Romance
readers will love Cameron and Faith's story and the many surprises it
delivers. The romance and suspenseful action are deftly blended. I
would love to read a follow-up story centred on this couple. Legend of the White Wolf can be read with
no previous exposure to the series.
Terry Spear has two more books in the series scheduled for release this year including
Seduced by the Wolf and Wolf Fever. I'm looking forward to picking up the one's I've missed!~~SciFi Guy

Legend of the White Wolf --Alternative Worlds Review The
fourth werewolf romantic suspense thriller (see To Tempt a Wolf,
Heart of the Wolf and Destiny of the Wolf) is a super entry as two
dedicated individuals combine their mission only to fall in love at
first bite. The pristine descriptions of Maine and elsewhere add to the
feeling that a werewolf pack runs free in the tundra. Fans will relish
this strong paranormal entry as no one does tales of the wolf better
than Terry Spear does.

Terry
Spear's wolves are not your average "werewolf". These wolves are actual
wolves. She does a lot of research on wolves in the wild and explains
some of the Native American history of wolves in her books. This book
has love, romance, action, suspense, mystery and more. I highly
recommend this book to everyone. It is fiction, romance, fantasy, and
mystery all in one. "Legend of the White Wolf is a Staff Pick!" ~~Terri Badiuk, Book Seller
Spear’s latest novel is bursting with romance, suspense, and
heart-pounding excitement!
Here
are some things I enjoyed: There’s a scene, where Cameron runs a towel
over Faith’s wet hair. I thought it was both simple and utterly
romantic. The author’s description of an Aurora Borealis was also
beautifully written. What will you enjoy? Hunky- wolfish
men
shedding their clothes, wolf bites, hotel clerk’s key mix-ups, and the
reference to the Sleeping Beauty trio. Legend
of the White Wolf
will leave you howling for more! Don’t worry, Terry Spear promises to
feed our wolf addiction with books five and six, set to release by fall
of 2010. Both novels will be published by Sourcebooks, Inc.,
Casablanca-titled Seduced by the Wolf and Wolf
Fever. ~~Susan S, guest reviewer, Love Romance Passion
Legend
of the White Wolf is
not your typical romance novel, even though it starts out to be one.
This is what is called an "Urban Fantasy" and it definitely comes
through as a fun book to read. I didn't realize I was reading the 4th
book in a series of werewolf romance novels. So that should tell you
that you don't need to read the other books to read this one. And if
you love books like Twilight, especially New Moon, then you'll love
this book! I know I did. This
is a book about two people who fall in love during their own individual
mysteries that just so happen to intertwine. Just like their
investigations combine, they do as well, and that's before they end up
becoming werewolves. This book has two of my favorite types of genres
mixed into one romance novel... the paranormal and mystery. It keeps
you guessing and keeps you thrilled from beginning to end. I liked all
the characters enough that I hope the next book has all of them in it!
I'm certainly going to be reading the first three books as well! I
highly recommend this to anyone who loves paranormal, mystery and
romance novels... it's all three in one great story!~~Moms for Books
I love that this book
has love,
romance, action, suspense and mystery. I had a hard time to put the
book down at times because I just had to keep reading to find out what
was going to happen.~~Cindy's Love of Books

Review:
Faith O'Malley is on her way to Millinocket
Maine to talk to someone at Back Country Tours. She is trying to find her ex-boyfriend who works there as a tour guide.
He took off with her father's research and she doesn't know why he would want the research. Along the way she runs into
a snowstorm and stops at hotel for the night. The clerk gives her the key and room number to a room that already
has someone staying there. That someone is Cameron MacPherson. He is an ex-police officer who now works as a private
investigator from Seattle. He is also headed for Back Country Tours. He is looking for his two partners,
who happen to also be long time friends. They are a week overdue from a hunting trip with the tour group. Faith and
Cameron decide to work together since they are heading to the same place. But what they find when they get there is
that there is a killer on the loose. Someone thinks that the owner and employees of the tour group are werewolfs and
is trying to take them out one at a time. Faith and Cameron agree to help find the killer in exchange for the information
they are looking for.
This is the fourth book of Ms Spear's werewolf series. I have read everyone
of them and in my opinion they just keep getting better and better. Ms. Spear puts a different spin on the werewolf
story. With this series you have romance, adventure and a paranormal twist. If you like your werewolf stories
with a bit of a bite, then pick this series up now.
Reviewer: Robin

Legend of the White Wolf is the forth werewolf book I've read by Terry Spear. Each
can be read stand alone and each tale is very entertaining. Ms. Spear has a knack for making her characters believable and
the wolves seem very realistic. I loved the characters of Cameron and Faith; both are loyal to their cause and relentless
in their search for answers. Naturally they don't get along in the beginning but have to learn to trust each other if they
want to survive the world they have just stumbled into. The werewolf community they discover either kills or converts anyone
who learns about them. But this year there is a group of killers hunting down pack members and killing them and Cameron and
Faith maybe able to help find and stop them once the werewolves ensure they won't tell their secrets. So this story is a werewolf
tale, a mystery, and a romance all rolled up into one. I loved it. If you have never read a werewolf tale by Terry Spear,
this is a good one to start with. Overall rating:  Sensuality rating: Very sensual Reviewer: Steph

"I
actually read LEGEND OF THE WHITE WOLF
by Terry Spear in January, but I’ve had to take some time to consider
my thoughts and feelings. I have to say even after this time I’m still
in love with LEGEND OF THE WHITE WOLF and while this is my first book
by Ms. Spear it won’t be my last. I simply loved LEGEND OF THE WHITE
WOLF. Ms. Spear elegantly and expertly mixes true life wolves with
mythological werewolves and their human counterpart. I honestly had no
idea who was truly good, who truly bad and who was a blend of good
guy/bad guy. I laughed, I got teary-eyed, and I sighed. I look forward
to reading Ms. Spear’s previous titles in this series: HEART OF THE
WOLF, DESTINY OF THE WOLF, and TO TEMPT THE WOLF as well as eagerly
awaiting the next title: SEDUCED BY THE WOLF (August 2010).
I do hope we see Cameron, Faith, and all the others again in the
upcoming novels. If you like paranormal with sexy characters,
intriguing storylines, and edge of your seat action you’ll love LEGEND
OF THE WHITE WOLF. I highly recommend this title to everyone. If you’ve
never read a werewolf story I suggest Ms. Spear’s should be your first!" Reviewed

"The romance between Cameron and Faith is absolutely adorable. Cameron
is sweet, gentlemanly but enough of a rogue to catch any woman's eye.
But just because he's 'gentlemanly' doesn't mean he's passive. The
passion between him and Faith sizzles off the page and would make us
all head up to the wilds of Maine to find our own 'magical' wolf.
All
in all, Ms Spear shows a fine talent for creating believable and
fascinating characters. She handles the mystery portion of the plot
with a great deal of finesse which made reading the book a joy. You
definitely don't want to miss this one." Lynda K Scott, Star-Crossed

"Such
a wild read. This fast paced book will keep you turning pages wanting
to know what's going to happen and how Cameron and Faith deal with
everything that gets tossed their way.
Spear's world of the
lupus garou is wild and sexy, shapeshifters at their best. No crazy
wolfman monsters running around, no Spear's books are filled with sexy
men that turn into actual wolves based on Native American lore.
Definitely
a wild and sexy series you'll want more of so you won't be disappointed
to learn that two more of her werewolf books will be released later
this year: Seduced by the Wolf and Wolf Fever with two other wolf books scheduled for release in 2011- Dreaming
of the Wolf and Taming the Highland Wolf"~~Roxanne Rhoads

Legend of the White Wolf is a
fast paced story with both elements of paranormal and mystery. Passions
and danger run high, which makes for an exciting read. One not to be
missed. This is the 4th book in Ms. Spear's Werewolf series, but can be
read as a stand alone. ~~Anna's Book Blog
