SUMMARY:
Born the only female in an all male race, Jessica McClain isn’t just different—she’s feared.

After living under the radar for the last twenty-six years, Jessica is thrust unexpectedly into her first change, a full ten years late. She wakes up and finds she’s in the middle of a storm. Now that she’s become the only female full-blooded werewolf in town, the supernatural world is already clamoring to take a bite out of her and her new Pack must rise up and protect her.

But not everyone is on board. The werewolf Rights of Laws is missing text and the superstitious werewolves think that Jessica means an end to their race. It doesn’t help when Jessica begins to realize she’s more. She can change partway and hold her form, and speak directly to her wolf. But the biggest complication by far is that her alpha father can't control her like he can the rest of his wolves.

When a mercenary who’s been hired by the vampires shows up to extract information about the newly turned werewolf only days after her change, they find themselves smack in the middle of a war and there's no choice but to run together. When it’s up to Jessica to negotiate her release against her father’s direct orders, she chooses to take an offer for help instead. In exchange, Jessica must now swear an oath she may end up repaying with her life.
MY REVIEW:
Jessica McClain is the only born female in an all out male pack. Being the only female, she's looked down at, but because her father is the alpha of the pack, she's been hiding from the supe community, hiding her true identity to try and live a normal life. Well, as normal as any female werewolf can.

Jessica McClain never thought she'd make her first transition into her wolf form. After the age came and gone when she should have turned with her twin brother, she was chased out of the pack and she never looked back. And the night Jessica turned, her life was turned upside down. So upside down that even her enemy (longtime grudge holding enemy) happens upon the site of her transition, he is determined to bring her down and he wont stop at nothing. And not to mention a possible mate that just might be out to kill her.

I absolutely loved Full Blooded! Amanda Carlson brings you into the world of this all male pack and this world is just boiling with testosterone. Very sexy wolfy testosterone at that. And there's more then just wolfy goodness in this book, you get a few side characters with a bit of paranormal spunk to them as well. And I thought that those characters added more to the story. Though, it probably would have been just as awesome without them. But still, gotta love the suped up characters!

Jessica's character is badass and fierce and even if she's the only girl in an all male pack, she hold her own and she doesn't show any fear. To be surrounded by that many males. wheew. *wipes brow* one lucky girl. Aside from Jessica's fan-frkn-tastic character, the supporting characters were totes awesome as well. All big and manly. Oh, yeah. ;)

Protective: CHECK.
Alpha: CHECK.
EXTRA ALPHA: CHECK, CHECK.
EXTRA ALPHA WITH WHIPPED CREAM ON TOP: nom nom nom. Go away, I'm eating ;)

I would definitely recommend this book. If you're a lover of paranormal awesomeness and love yourself mighty alpha werewolves and strong heroines than Full Blooded is right up your alley. And all your lovers out there for romance, Amanda Carlson does not leave you hangin'. With all the kickassness going on, Carlson tosses in a mate with hungry eyes that leaves you panting and wanting more. I know I do ;)
