For seventeen years Alexis “Lexi” Turner has been running. From foster homes, creeps on the street and the law.Lexi is a survivor, she has spent her whole life moving from one abusive foster home to the next, until she decided to take charge of her own life. Living in abandoned buildings, couch surfing and working at a strip clubs are huge improvement on what she had before. All she needs is …
All she needs is enough money to feed herself, finish high school and hopefully go to college.
She has a plan.
That is until she is caught and sent to live with a strange foster family up-state, —her new high school isn’t much better.
Rafferty King was forced like Lexi to this new foster home, but he fits in better. And that’s saying something for a total misfit. Hot as hell and getting into fights, while ignoring her existence. Whatever.
Then there are the twins Ranger and Maverick, also known as “The joker and The Loner.” They know who she is and give her the new girl treatment she is all too familiar with.
And how can a history teacher look that hot, there should be rules against that kind of thing. But there is something about Galen Donovani, that has Lexi feeling safe when he is near.
While everyone else avoids him.
What the hell is going on in the state of Washington. And why are there so many wolves roaming at Port Willow High!
17+ RH shifter and vampires.

Nooo it can’t end like that!? Geez i love to hate cliffhangers. Seriously, wow i couldn’t put this one down! I need book 2 now! Awesome story that you can’t help being sucked into. I don’t want to spoiled anything but if you like good shifters and vampires stories with a twist you absolutely need to grab this one and give it a try.

This story is a good one but it needs some work from the characters not fully thought out to the wording of each person in the book not everyone is the same age much less born in the same century and not everyone would think alike. The good thing is that this story has a good hook with the loner the bad boy the ancient vampire and the two twins. And you have a girl who went from having nothing and living on the streets rather then another crapy foster home but then she ends up in a home full of boys and everyone has a secret. The teacher the students the boys even Lexi herself we just don’t know what it is yet. So for the next book hopefully we will find out what’s going on there and please more detail but less about Lexie and her period. So I will say this is a 3.4 stars but I gave it a 4 I really want to see were this is going.
I was allowed to read and advance copy of this book via Booksprout and this is my honest review.

This first in series is a slightly different story about shifters and Vampires and something unknown.
The characters have a sharp learning curve.
Alexis (“Lexi”) Turner has had a tough time of things in the foster homes she has been sent to and had to run away from. Now she is trying to make it on her own, graduate from high school, maybe go to college. But with only two months to go until she is 18, she is found and snatched back into the system – but this time it seems she was sent to a pretty nice foster home upstate. Raff King, whom she met outside of the new caseworker’s office, is also there and for some reason he made her feel safe.
At her new school, however, Lexi can’t figure out what all the sniffing is about! Even one of the teachers seems interested. It’s a new world for Lexi, made up of shapeshifters and vampires and who knows what else! There is something different about Lexi. No one knows “what” she is, but her scent seems to make most of the guys want her for their own! Where will she go from here? How does she fit into this new world with all the unusual people?
This was a very interesting story line, especially with the mystery over Lexi’s mesmerizing scent. Lexi is a great character with her sassy attitude and just the right amount of “snark”. Grab your copy and join the rest of us on the bench, waiting eagerly for the next installment!
Heck yeah, so addictive I really really need to read the next one. Highly recommend it. It’s 5am and I haven’t been to sleep yet.. because I couldn’t put this book down..
Team Jacob & team Edward. Girl have your cake and eat it to. There is no in between. This was hook line and sinker. I was sold on chapter 1 or was it chapter 2? Hell I don’t think I can wait till July for the 2nd book. Is so damned addictive. And all the hot men damn. All the Jane Austen references holy shit! That sold me big time plus the twilight references as well. Holy shite. Better not be killing off that sexy vamp that could put Mr Darcy to shame! I wonder what she’ll shift in to. And how the hell Aba knows. That’s got me super curious now. How she fits in to all this chaos!!!!!! I need book 2 I got so many questions now! I hate cliffhangers. Specially like this!!!!

Lexi has been in the foster system since she was five and she always ran. She is now 17, working in a strip joint, and going to high school as a senior in Washington. Her parents were killed in an accident. The system has found her and placed her in a foster home filled with guys. She finally finds a place to belong. At school, all these guys keep sniffing at her and following her around. The main ones are Ranger, Maverick (Ranger’s twin), and a teacher Galen. Things are weird around her though, even at home. She is seeing a red wolf; Rafferty is coming home torn up with claw marks? They are growing closer and closer. Then the truth comes out, she is surrounded by shifters and vampires! They do not know what she is…but her scent is intoxicating and all the guys want her as a mate. They take her blood to run tests. And now four men vie for her attention. One problem does exist…very few women make the transition to shifter. They usually die…she gets bitten by a pack member out of jealousy and anger…Galen bites her to extract the venom…so now what? Will he survive? The pack member? And what will happen with her? What is she? Find out in the next book…I received this via Booksprout and am leaving a voluntary review.
Holy smokes! This story TOTALLY sucked me in. Unique story with 3 dimensional characters you can really sink your “teeth” in. Although the characters are in high school the feel of the cast is much more mature. It’s rare I don’t want to skip ahead in the story to catch a glimpse of what the ending will be or skim pages to hurry the story along. This one did not disappoint. I did not want this one to end and can’t wait to find out what happens in the next installment of this series.

Oh my gosh I felt like i just read a cross between Twilight and True Blood only freaking better. Yes I said better than Meyers and Harris. I mean you through in the whole why choose element and you are definitely have the best book in the world. So if you love Twilight and True Blood, then you will freaking love this book. So once I started reading the book, I was immediately sucked into the town of Kiba. Why was I so invested in this book? Alexis, Rafferty, Ranger, Maverick and Galen. I mean you have a couple of troubled teens trying to make their situation as best as they could. So when Alexis is sent to Kiba, she is not thrilled and tries to get away but some people are super fast?! So one day her world just gets crazy and she is trying to figure out what her next move is. She didn’t not plan on actually caring about people around her. At the same time she is told that there is something about her that attracts the supernatural beings to her. She is an anomaly. Will she find out what she is? What is going to happen? Ahh and that ending , WTF!!! I am not sure I can wait til the next book comes out. This book is so good!! Don’t miss out on this.
Wow! This book is Amazing! I started it last night, then literally got no sleep because I couldn’t stop reading! Lexi is a bad ass chick and I love her character. I love the guys too! They are sexy as sin and terrific characters as well. The storyline is fantastic and that cliffhanger is a doozy, it will leave you begging for book 2!
*Spoiler Alert*
After losing her parents & spending most of her life in & out of foster care and homes Alexis – Lexi (FMC) ends up getting put in an all boys home. New home, New School and a whole host of complications which include a bad boy loner -Rafferty, A hot headmaster – Galen & brothers Ranger & Maverick. As well as being the centre of attention for the male population of her new school except she cant work out why? I absolutely loved this first book in this series. Lexi is a great character taking no nonsense from anyone & delivering plenty of sarcasm when needed. Just Brilliant
After running from her foster homes she ends up in a place she never expected. No she has to figure out why everyone keeps sniffing her. Lol.
Really enjoyable read the author does a great job of building this world I can see many books and spin offs to come. And the ending….I can’t wait for July
omg, this book was amazing!!
I loved this book, I couldn’t put it down and read it in an afternoon. It was just what I needed.
Lexi is a foster kid and has run from every home she had, but then she gets placed in a new home and things feel different, maybe the new place is worth staying in. She feels a connect with fellow foster kid Raff but some of the guys at school are acting weird around her and she doesn’t know why.
There are lots that Lexi doesn’t know about her new town but she strong and takes everything in her stride as she finds various things out.
The guys are all different and lovely and I can’t wait to see more of their interactions.
But what a cliff hanger! I need to know what happens, I hope is isn’t long to book 2.
ONE DOUBLE DIPPED ROCKY ROAD!!!

Amazing job Belle, thanks for sharing this treasure with us.
Wow. Wow, wow, wow.. Wow… yeah, I’m completely stunned, speechless over that cliffhanger!!! Ahh!!! I can’t believe that amazingness I just read. So yeah, I’ll start this review off by saying that if you don’t enjoy cliffhangers, hold off on reading this series until the next book is out because this book right here? It’ll leave you hanging by your fingertips; rocking back-and-forth in the corner; throwing your reading device; screaming NOOOOOOOOO!!! Yep. It was that amazing. I LOVE when authors leave me dangling over the precipice like Ms. Harper has managed to do here, just in utter shock as I sit here in stunned silence, hoping the next book comes soon so that my heart may start beating a normal rhythm again.
Twice Bitten will grab your attention from the get-go and leave you on the edge of the seat as you climb the hill to the top of the ride and then has you holding on for dear life as you plummet. I loved every second of the ride. Once I started reading, I couldn’t stop. #teamgiveneallthemguys
Great book, characters are well developed and the story flowed very nicely. I started reading and couldn’t put in down, finished in one day. I love books that suck you into their world and make you forget everything else and right now I think we can all use a great distraction from reality. I am anxiously awaiting book 2. This was a new author for me but I will definitely be reading more from her!

Belle Harper has put together an incredible group of characters that are unique, distinguishable, and great personalities. Lexi is a dynamic characters who is intriguing. The story has a fantastic element of mystery, intrigue, and heat. The chemistry between Lexi and Galen, Raff, Mav, and Ranger is amazing. Each have there own degree of heat chemistry but all of it is palpable. This is a must read that I highly recommend.
