It's really 3 1/2 stars. :)I loved Cry Sanctuary. I read this book in a couple of hours. My only complaint is that I wish the book was longer. Because the book isn't that long, the relationship between Keith and Abby developed rather quickly. Keith is the typical Alpha male. He's strong and responsible. Abby is a newly turned female who needs a strong male. Her attraction to Keith was instantaneous. I loved that Abby's character wasn't wimpy or whiny. Of course they are going to be good together. The sexual tension between Keith and Abby is palatable. But in typical hero fashion, Keith tries to do the right thing by resisting Abby and letting Abby make an informed choice on who will be her Guide. Cry Sanctuary has the typical elements of a werewolf story - at least werewolf stories that I've read. There's the Alpha male leader of a pack that doesn't follow the rules and treats the women badly. The alpha male from a neighboring pack has to step in and rescue the woman. In this case, two women - Abby and her sister Brynn. I'm looking forward to the second book which is about Abby's sister, Brynn.
