What was supposed to be an extended family camping trip turns horribly wrong.
All Liala wanted for her 21st birthday is to reconnect with her long dead mother at the place her parent's met and they used to visit until her death.
Despite an old woman's warning the camp of her extended family and friends is eventually set up at a secluded little piece of paradise... and right in the middle of the local were-wolf pack's territory.
Howl is a horror/paranormal/erotica story and contains topics that are not suitable for minors or the fainthearted, such as gore, non-con/dub-con, and borderline interaction.
Publisher's comment: D.S. Wrights returns to what had held us at the edge of our seat reading The Beast And Me and beyond.

About the author
D.S. Wrights
80 books683 followersD.S. “Dee” Wrights was born 29th March 1980 in Germany. Her name is a pen name, and she describes writing as her passion and calling. Dee speaks three languages fluently, English, German and Dutch, and some other rudimentary.
Although she started writing at an early age and two short stories were published during high school, one as a school project and one in a regional newsletter – Dee never dared of thinking to pursue a writing career. Until she started writing fanfiction and readers encouraged her to publish The Beast And Me as an ebook in May 2014.
Dee worked at a publishing house at which she earned insight into the work, process, and production of publishing books. That was the reason why she chose to do all the work herself, apart from proofreading.
When talking about her novels, Dee explains that she loves to dive into the mindset of different characters, especially those of villains and anti-heroes. However, in addition to that, she enjoys writing women who start off as weak and grow through their experiences in her books and end up being their own hero.
The question "Why do you want to be my friend?" is meant seriously. If you have more friends than books, or your answer doesn't tell me anything, I most likely won't accept the request.

I've always been more of a vampire girl than into werewolves but HOWL is darkly crafted into a manifesto of tibbits that have me craving more of this semi dark piece of work. With that being said, D.S. Wrights does a good job lacing this storyline with dubious content.
HOWL grabbed me from the prologued then somewhere in the middle lost me but my my interest was quickly restored. I loved how this author wrote characters with layers as it made the suprises oh so sweet later on. Ultimately I take joy in knowing this is a series because I have too many questions and I'm anxious to see what's revealed in the next installment.
Utimately if you like action, a bit of mystery, and dark/dubious situations HOWL is for you. In my opinion it could be darker but it's still enjoyable. Shoot, it reads like watching a movie. Picture this- camping trip gone wrong, now you're in the woods either dead, running for your life, or captured.
HOWL gets 4.5 always heed the creapy old lady warning stars!

Lia is wanting to celebrate her birthday with a family camping trip to feel closer to her mother who died years ago. But with a full moon and a warning from an old woman to leave, Lia knows something is wrong and not all monsters are make believe.
I am not a big fan of paranormal reads but I thought I would give Howl a try since it was also an erotica. Every now and then a reader gets lucky with the unknown. While Howl started out a little slow, it suddenly turned into a very dark disturbing story. Just when you think it couldn't get any more strange, the author takes you down a frightening path even as you find yourself getting excited. At times I couldn't tell you what was up or down but I knew I had to have more. The description of Lia's fear and frightening encounter in the woods was written perfectly!
After finishing Howl, I had more questions than answers and wished it hadn't ended so abruptly. While the first installment was good, I feel like you really can't dig deep into this story until the next installment is released.

Dark, Erotic & just a little messed up. Not everyone's bedtime reading but perfect for me.
I was excited when D.S. & Lilith decided to team up to give us Howl & I certainly wasn't disappointed. This book kept me on the edge & wondering what way it would go. Totally did not see it going the way it did.
Cannot wait to see where the story takes us with Hunt.

This story has great potential. It's almost like horror and erotica had baby and out popped this book.
The beginning of this gripped me right away and had my heart pounding in anticipation. It had me thinking a million miles a minute anticipating what would happen next.
Liala gets a lot more then she bargains for after she convinces her dad to take her camping to Crescent Valley for her twenty-first birthday. She wanted to re-connect with her mother that passed away shortly after giving birth to her little brother. Their camping trip goes horribly wrong when creatures from the night come attack their camp.
Liala instincts are to fight back and try to save her family and friends. As fiercely as she tries, most of them are slaughtered apart from the girls. Her cousin Kiana, Kiana's friend Brenna, and herself. They are captured and taken.
This is where things become even more intense. Full disclosure there is a rape scene and some intense erotica type situations that take place. If this is not your cup of tea than I suggest to not read this.
Liala's camping trip to feel closer to her mom ends up being a trip that opens up her eyes to a whole other world and ends up discovering more about herself than she could ever imagine was possible.

This was AMAZING! simply amazing. That being said... make sure you read the authors warning about this story because it is not for the faint of heart. It is sexy, it is freaky, it is downright OMG in some places.. It is a paranormal...horror.. erotica.. not really three normal words thrown together. I couldn't read this one fast enough. I had to know what was next.. I had to keep reading and there were some spots that did creep me out. There is blood... guts.. and somehow in the middle of it all.. a light side also. The characters made me laugh at times.. They acted like this was just a normal thing but it was really well written and I loved it
November 12, 2016
This played out like a film to me. I loved it. The descriptions D.S. and Lilith uses was perfect. I was so held into this story. I loved it.
This is something I would definitely recommend to get you trapped into the story.
5 stars. Just read the prologue you be hooked

This paranormal short story was a treat for this romance reader who enjoys paranormal stories every once in a while. The author pens a scary, captivating tale of a family who returns to an old campsite to remember their mother on her birthday. The only problem is, it's a full moon and even though they were warned, they still made up their camp for the night.
"The moonlight bathed the forest in an eerie light through which only the headlights of the car cut, making the whole surroundings appear even more unreal and nightmarish."
"There were at least three pairs of eyes out there, circling their camp."
I chose to read this book and all opinions in this review are my own and completely unbiased.

Going into the forest on a full moon, not so smart. Lia, lost her mother, and wants to feel close to her, that's why she talks her dad into going on the camping trip. Stumbling into a pack /turf war with the hunters meeting a handsome green eyed hairy beast that turns her on, is all coincidence right?

Howl (Howl #1) by D.S. Wrights & Lilith Dark D.S. Wrights and Lilith Dark created an amazing dark contemporary paranormal fantasy with Howl, the first book in the series of the same name. All Liala (Lia) wanted to do for her twenty-first birthday was go on a camping trip with her brother and father in remembrance her late mother. What she got was a nightmare and undisclosed truths about her heritage. Howl is suitable for mature audiences. The story takes place in Crescent Valley. I like Lia. The story is told from her point of view. She is a tomboy. She is brave, observant, and loyal. She cares for others above herself. I felt bad that so many people were invited to her birthday celebration which she would have preferred to be a smaller outing with her immediate family. Lia discovers an entirely new world with werewolves and hunters that she did not know existed. She handles herself well considering the traumatic experience she, and the others end up facing. Howl is a well-crafted story that is on the darker side. It is not for the faint of heart, and some things happen that could have triggering effects on some people. I enjoyed the plot and writing style. The novel felt original and was fast paced. The politics and dynamics of the story are transfixing. There are many unexpected twists and not knowing who can be trusted. I am glad I already have the second book, Hunt, so I can immediately start the story to find out what happens next. This is the first story I have read by the duo; I am thrilled to have discovered them. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

Finally!
A book Tackling one of my ultimate fantasies! A werewolf doing it with a human, while in werewolf form! A big fat thank you to the authors for writing this despite knowing that many People will be upset and childish about this and giving them a one-star! Boooh at all of you! This is one great emotional, horrific and hot ride.
This book starts out slow, but damn you'll be rewarded!

### 4.5 Stars ###
A really enjoyable werewolf novel, this one kept my interest throughout. It's a fairly short read but long enough to connect well with the characters, I read the whole story in one sitting.
I personally didn't find this one that dark, but it does have elements that some may find difficult. It's quite an unusual read ...gory, sad, erotic and addictive, with some unpredicted twists along the way.
Looking forward to reading the next book 'Hunt' in this series.

Howl is a fantastically dark and sexy supernatural thriller.
D.S. does a fantastic job yet again drawing you into the dark and sexy side of the supernatural world. I love the way she is able to so easily suck you into her stories and keeps you wanting more

This was the first book I've read by either author and I have to say it was a great concept for a book. There were multiple grammatical and spelling errors but it did not detract from the story. I will be reading more from these authors.
Liala wants to go camping for her 21st birthday to the place where her now to see deceased mother used to take her. It was just supposed to be her, her father and her little brother, but then her cousins and uncle came and brought their friends. Little did they know they set up right in a werewolf territory. Warnings from an old woman go unheeded, will this be a big mistake?
Can't wait for the second installment!!

When I first started this book I wasn't sure where the storyline was headed. Boy I am glad I stuck with this book because it was terrific.
I am a huge fan of the paranormal genre.
I am going to suggest going into this book blind. I am glad I did. I didn't read the blurb or anything beforehand. This book was hot as hell. And a definite twist to the storyline.
I can't wait to read book two.

Loved how D S Wrights draws you into the story. I am not normally into paranormal stories but I really enjoyed this.
All of the characters have depth to them and its brilliant how the darkness, suspense and story develop.
I wont give away the story. I will say its worth the read. Cant wait for book two

Awesome
About a family taking his daughter whose turning 21 to where his dead wife went before her death. She was attacked and her cousin and her friend we're kidnapped by a clan if werewolves and the rest died after being attacked and killed. Everything she knew about her life is different because she's a half breed werewolf

When I first started this book it was hard for me to get into to be honest, but I hate not finishing a book that I start, so I kept reading and I'm glad I did. By the time I was done I was captivated by this book and couldn't wait to read book 2. Love the characters and the story line.

If you like books about werewolves you will like this book. This is a very interesting story. I can't wait to read the next book (Hunt).

This was a short, quick read about paranormal animals, werewolves.
It was a different story, started off with a lot of suspense and action and then the story developed further.

How, this was hot, and dark, and most of all: taboo?
I never thought I'd find a book that would tackle the topic of shifter-sex while shifted. Well, here you have it, but it's non-con/dub-con. WOW
It starts of slow, but then it takes of like a rocket. I'm just saying like other before me: it's like a horror movie. With sex.

A camping trip gone horrible wrong.
The concept of the story was good. I was interested once we go to the camp and things started going down him, but then right at the top it bottomed out. Erotic? Ok. Gruesome? Yeah. Paranormal? Yes. Kept my attention? Not really, I kept veering off to read something else.
That's about all I've got. I was so confused by all the people in this story and who they were and who they belonged too. Plus there were spelling and grammar mistakes all through this book. I reread a sentence 5x, maybe it's because my brain isn't working, I'll take that hit. But the rest, um....
You've been warned. This book is free on Kindle Unlimited, have some free time, give it a go.

I thought I knew what I was getting into when I started this book. Some clear warnings here: Dub-con, non-con, sex while in shifted form. I knew at least some of this, and specifically wanted to see the treatment. I don't consider myself that squeamish but this one really got to me.
So the book starts with introducing a bunch of characters that I immediately dismissed as werewolf chow. I was not that far off. But then it gets worse. Far worse.
This brutal treatment of Liana is almost played for fun. Her emotional whiplash toward the end is kind of ridiculous.
That and the need for some grammar and sanity checking, and I really don't recommend this.

D.S. Wrights ist mein Geheimtipp, wenn ihr auf außergewöhnliche Geschichten, die sowohl sinnlich als auch düstern sind, stehen solltet...Ich bin ja Fan ihrer Vampirreihe...Während der Wartezeit auf einen nächsten Band, haut die Autorin einfach mal ne neue Reihe raus...Mit Werwölfen - aaaaah, wie cool ist das denn?...Ihr wisst ja bereits, Werwölfe und ich sind eins...D.S. Wrights verpasst ihren allerdings noch eine andere Seite...Brutal, erbarmungslos, sexy as hell...Die Aura stimmte für mich...Es war wahnsinn...
Für mich ist der Auftakt der Reihe sehr vielversprechend...Auch wenn das Buch etwas zu kurz für meinen Geschmack war und somit etwas Tiefe verloren ging...ABER - es ist einfach D.S. Wrights und ihre Geschichten sind einfach der Burner...So kann ich ihr nicht "böse" sein...
Also Jungs und Mädels, seid ihr bereit eure Grenzen zu sprengen? Manche Szenen können echt verstörend sein, aber ich liebe solche nicht alltäglichen Handlungen...Beim Lesen musste ich auch an Laymons "Der Keller"...Es hatte etwas bizarres abet auch süchtig machendes...Ich kann es schwer beschreiben...
Also, wer kommt mit nach Crescent Valley?...Ob wir es überleben werden, steht auf einem anderen Blatt geschrieben...

Supposed you are sitting in a car at a forest rest stop and reading this book...
In a while you will find that you will unconsciously check your surroundings from time to time. At a certain point in the book - and I'm pretty sure about that - you'll rather lock the doors (of course just for general safety).
... Yes, that's the kind of book it is. I don't recommend this book to highly sensitive readers. Even for me some scenes were borderline . The action in this 1st book of this trilogy is quite violent and gory.
I like the books by D.S. Wright's, so I'm pretty sure that there will be some interesting twists and turns in the other two books and even a kind of happy ending at the end. Only this "beginning" takes some getting used to and has a very dark setting in places.

These two authors are certainly very talented at putting their readers in the midst of a chilling, creepy atmosphere, and I was drawn into the story despite all its glaring problem - I don't think I've read a published book with more editing issues. There are so many typos and grammar mistakes that were bad enough that I sometimes had to read a sentence a couple of times to figure out its intended meaning. It also didn't help that the book was penned by two authors, as at one stage the heroine seemed to have forgotten that she had already confirmed the death of a minor character. I sincerely hope the authors will consider revising the book (and the series, which i intend to continue with) and re-publish it after proper editing. I could be so much better.

Uneven
So, there are several issues with this book, the largest of which is the uneven narrative. The point of view jumps around, which leads to a jarring effect for the reader. Lia is underdeveloped as a character and her reactions swing wildly from hard-hearted to protective to panicky. The book could use some editing, as the narrative is very often repetitive and over generalized. The bones of a good story are here, but it needs some work. Also, FYI, this is a serialized story.
