Lady Cecily Hale has waited four years for Luke Trenton, Viscount Merritt, to return from war. But when he returns, he is not the same. His gaze is cold and he deeps Cecily at a distance. At a house part with friends, the conversation turns to the local story of the Werestag, a beast that is said to haunt the woods. When the friends go out in search of this creature, Cecily has a near-death experience with a wild boar. This prompts her to fight for the man she loves before she loses him forever.
This is Tessa Dare's first published novella, originally titled "The Legend of the Werestag". I liked the story, but it suffers from it's very short length. It would have been so much better as a full length novel. My rating: 3.5 Stars.
