Review: The Shewolf and the Priest by Joanne C. Berroa

Angelora is a breathtakingly beautiful shape shifter who takes the form of a wolf. She also possesses a supernatural ability to raise the dead. She’s the last remaining member of a unique gypsy tribe in Romania in 1880 where only the women of the sect retained these extraordinary gifts, handed down from generation to generation.

Father Steven is an incredibly sexy Catholic priest with a haunting past. He lives a simple, holy life attending to the needs of Saint Isidore’s parish and draws comfort from the knowledge his past sins have been forgiven, until one fateful night his and Angelora’s paths cross.

Will Father Steven ignore his sacred vow of celibacy to woo the beautiful, sultry gypsy who imprints on his life? And will her “powers” unite them or destroy them?

Reviewer’s Thoughts

Angelora is a gypsy shape shifter who finds herself attracted to a human. But not just any human. Steven is a priest. He fights the feelings he has for her because of his need to atone for his sin and his dedication to the priesthood. This book wasn’t really long enough to really get into everything. And the book largely ignores the details of her being a shifter. It’s almost an after thought. The idea of Steven resisting her and eventually giving in is a good one. But the story was a little lacking despite its potential. I would have liked to see more about her shifter side and for her to have been a little more feisty. This book just lacked vibrancy for me.
