Linger by Maggie Stiefvater, narrated by Jenna Lamia and David Ledoux, is the second book in the Wolves of Mercy Falls series. Grace and Sam have courted disaster in the previous volume and have been reunited here, but Isabelle continues to seek out danger — the danger that comes with the new wolf, Cole, who is a very troubled young man trying to escape his past. Even as Sam achieves a reprieve from the curse, it has its claws in others.
Grace finds that she’s not feeling well, but she fears telling anyone for her own fears will become reality. As she struggles to hold onto herself, her health, and Sam, her parents are putting their foot down finally, grounding her and forbidding her from seeing Sam. Sam is struggling with his new lease on life, and he still has to reconcile who he has become and what that means for the rest of his life. Cole, the newest of the wolves, is happy to escape his past life, and while he’s enjoying his anonymity, his secrets threaten to expose all of the wolves hiding in the woods.
Jenna Lamia is a fantastic narrator for the female characters, and David Ledoux provides just the right amount of calm for Sam and the angst of Cole. He also has to sing some lines, and does well. Linger by Maggie Stiefvater, narrated by Jenna Lamia and David Ledoux, is a solid second book in this series, and while there are moments where the teenage love drama is a bit over the top, the story is well drawn and the characters face some life-changing decisions.

About the Author:
There is some of the music in the audio books. I really thought it was haunting. I probably should have mentioned that in the review. Oops.
I bet teens love the over the top love drama.
I am sure that they do.
Glad you are enjoying this series!
