In 1875 werewolf Morgan Holt is released from prison after spending several years behind bars in a mercy killing of his ailing father whom he hated for deserting the family. For the next five years he roamed among wolf packs refusing human contact. However, hunters shoot him and he turns into a human found by members of French's Fantastic family Circus who help him heal.
Feeling gratitude though he prefers to leave, Morgan agrees to remain until the circus turns a profit. He performs as the Wolfman. After a fire devastates the circus, Niall Munroe offers needed funding if the circus performs in Denver for an orphanage his wheelchair bound sister Athena sponsors. Athena and Morgan fall in love as he shows her the hidden wolf inside her, but her sibling has other plans that exclude Morgan.
TO CATCH A WOLF is an enjoyable werewolf historical romance that contains a strong main plot centering on the love and demons of the two protagonists. The key to the tale is that the audience will accept as easily as the circus troupe that werewolves are real. To a degree a romance between Niall and Caitlin a circus performer adds depth, but the brother comes across too nasty to accept in that role at least in this title. Still fans will howl for a sequel because Caitlin deserves her story told and readers will want to know about another performer's homecoming and whether this lead couple has a werepup.
