Synopsis by Barnes and Noble:

She's no angel . . .

Poor Dru Anderson. Her parents are long gone, her best friend is a werewolf, and she's just learned that the blood flowing through her veins isn't entirely human. (So what else is new?)

Now Dru is stuck at a secret New England Schola for other teens like her, and there's a big problem— she's the only girl in the place. A school full of cute boys wouldn't be so bad, but Dru's killer instinct says that one of them wants her dead. And with all eyes on her, discovering a traitor within the Order could mean a lot more than social suicide. . .

Can Dru survive long enough to find out who has betrayed her trust—and maybe even her heart?

My Thoughts:

I was able to get into Betrayals a lot quicker than Strange Angels. I was enticed by the ever present danger that kept appearing in this book. There was never a dull moment and Dru always had to stay on her toes. Dru is by far one of the strongest female characters out there. She runs with the boys and can sometimes even fight with them. I absolutely love her character for this, she makes for a good female lead. Sometimes, she comes off as a little vulgar with her mouth of her sailor and her necessity to throw up whenever dange is afoot. Sometimes this detracted from the story, but once it was over and the plot began again I was able to get right back into the action. Betrayals left no time for thinking, it went from one event to the next within minutes. I am anxious to see where the next book will take Dru and the boys.

Recommendations: Anyone who wants action in their reading.
