Book Info:
Bitten by Jordan Stephanie Gray
Genre: Young Adult Fantasy
Publishing Date: September 30, 2025
Synopsis:
Crescent City meets Fourth Wing in this fast-paced and romantic debut, in which a teenage girl must survive ruthless werewolves, a glittering court, and deadly politics to exact revenge on the monsters who destroyed her.
After a vicious werewolf attack on the night of her seventeenth birthday party, Vanessa Hart loses everything she loves in a split second. Her best friend, her father, and even her home.
Bitten and imprisoned without explanation, Vanessa endures an agonizing transformation into the very beast that maimed her, and her captors make it clear she cannot escape: she will either swear her life to the Wolf Queen’s Court, or she will die.
With no other choice, Vanessa joins their enchanted Castle Severi—where flowering vines grow through the walls, gifts are bestowed by the stars, and a claw can break through skin as easily as silk—but she hasn’t forgotten what they stole from her.
Vanessa still seeks vengeance, scheming in the shadows even as she finds herself mesmerized by the golden prince Sinclair Severi, who threatens to steal her heart though he is promised to her nemesis. And by his brooding, disgraced cousin, Calix, whose smoldering gaze hides even darker secrets. Immersed in the magic of their whimsical yet cruel society, Vanessa soon learns not all is as it seems.
The Court is at war, and she may simply be a pawn in its lethal game.

Tour Schedule:
When I first saw the blog tour for Bitten I was like hell yeah me want to read this as I have been enjoying books with werewolves alot. I did not care for Vanessa or Sin but Calix seemed to me that he was going to be the most interesting character and oh boy I was right and this kept me reading on. I loved the court scenes but still felt that this was going to be a 3 star but when it came to the end and the final reveal it went to a 4 star and oh boy I shall be continuing on with the Series
