Fear the Wolf: Alex Steward Book 1 (The Alex Steward Stories) by Stefanie Gilmour

From the moment she transformed into a werewolf, Alex was terrified. First, of the man who attacked her—then of herself. If her inner wolf breaks free again, people could die, and she’ll be the one hunted.

Alex struggles to keep her savage passenger caged, but life doesn’t make it easy. The Committee ruling the supernatural community would punish her for the slightest misstep. A group of zealots are targeting supernatural beings of all kinds. Worst of all—some people are just jerks.

For help, she relies on her best friend Emma, a wizard and the only person she trusts with her secret. But Emma has her own secret: Mitch. He’s twisting her into someone unrecognizable…and he may be inflicting the same treatment on other vulnerable supernatural citizens.

To save Emma, Alex must make alliances with wizards and werewolves alike, face the Committee, unravel deadly conspiracies, and confront her own worst fear—herself.

Fear the Wolf is Book 1 in the Alex Steward urban fantasy series. This werewolf mystery book features a strong female shifter lead, ride-or-die friendships, found family, plenty of humor, and kick-ass action…all set in the Midwest.
