Lindsey is annoying and her indecisiveness drove me crazy. From page 1 to 245 the book is literally filled with incessant psycho babble that finally came to a conclusion within the last 8 pages. It was a struggle to finish this book due to Lindsey repetitive inner dialog that was spouted like a mantra. Lindsey questions everything from "Do I love Conner?", "Do I love Rafe?", "Do I deserve love?", "Do either of them really love me?", " Should I pick Conner?", "Should I pick Rafe", "What will happen to Conner if I choose Rafe?", "Is Rafe a killer?" and on and on and on!

I loved the first book in this series but Lindsey's installment was a utter disappointment. If I didn't already own books 3 and 4 I would probably discontinue reading the series. Hopefully the other two books will be better.

Lindsey's had her whole life mapped out for her, including her soul mate. Her parents have chosen him and they've grown up together. Connor is in all of her important memories - but lately she's beginning to question if she loves him because she loves him or because they've been pushed together so often that she can't imagine herself without him.

It's no surprise that she's having these thoughts when she can't get Rafe out of her head. His glances leave her breathless - something Connor's never does. She dreams about kissing him.

In her society, mates are chosen after one's 17th birthday to help with the change. The transformation into a werewolf for the first time is a painful process, and having your mate there eases the pain and intensifies the experience.

Lindsey doesn't know who or what to trust. Her friends aren't really a big help, either, because Brittany believes the system is archaic since males go through the transformation without their mates. Plus, Kayla's so disgustingly happy with her mate. How will Lindsey decide something so important and in such a short time - with her heart or her head?

FULL MOON is the second book in the DARK GUARDIAN series. Each book is written from a perspective of a girl in the pack about to transform for the first time, and each takes a different look at love. There's danger lingering over from the first book, with scientists looking to capture and run tests on a werewolf and expose their secrets.

Danger, paranormal, and romance - the perfect combination!
