Summary

Devon Murphy has never believed that there were fairies at the bottom of the garden, but when he's in an accident on his way to his grandmother's house and comes face to face with the biggest, baddest wolf he's ever seen, he's forced to reconsider. When his grandmother asks him to look into a string of suspicious accidents, he finds a much bigger mystery to unravel. From his childhood best friend to the too-attractive deputy Wade Hunter, everyone in Rowan Harbor seems to have something to hide. Devon has to get to the bottom of it all before the accidents turn deadly. Contains mature themes.

Rushed storyline

The trope and story arc had a lot going for them, but it was the writing that let this story down. Everything seemed so rushed, and there was little space for intrigue or mystery about the town because it's secrets were revealed so quickly. The insta-love between Devon and Hunter was also really quick ... so there was no flirting or building up to the big bang!! This meant the story felt a bit flat. It's a shame that the author didn't develop this first book some more. This author has a lot of books and so this sounds like a rush to publish title.
