Werewolf Nights has all the elements a supernatural romance thriller would incorporate. So it's safe to say that she has studied the art of writing and honed her craft. She is a Harvard alum with a degree in English and also has a PhD in comparative literature from the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor. “This is author Mari Hamill's debut novel. Werewolf Nights immediately takes me back to that book series which I read many full moons (hehe) ago.

It took place in a small Louisiana town with a small-town waitress, Sookie Stackhouse, as it's protagonist. “Did you watch True Blood on HBO? If you aren't aware, that critically-acclaimed series was based on a series of books from The Southern Vampire Mysteries by author Charlaine Harris. In Werewolf Nights, author Mari Hamill blends fantasy, intrigue, and passion to create a chilling, unique story. Catherine must decide if she has the courage to help Greg once and for all, even if it ruins her last chance for true love. Should that be the case, Greg will turn into a werewolf when the moon becomes full, and someone's destined to die. Suddenly Greg, Catherine, and friend Steve, a werewolf legend buff, must figure out if the town's legend is real. Just when the two realize their feelings, a wolf bites Greg. Although Catherine had just about given up on love, Greg makes his way into her heart, despite some deception when they first meet. Fate steps in, however, and the legend becomes more than just a story.

But the small-town bakery owner is drawn to Greg Byron, a sexy movie star in town to film the story of Wereville's werewolf legend, and gets closer to him when she's cast to replace the female lead who vanishes. That's what Catherine Mercy, star of this new novel, faces every time she goes on a date.

It's not easy living in a small town where everyone knows your high school sweetheart disappeared and your husband died in a boating accident.
