Book Description:
Her voice is enchanting; his soul is black...
Madison Carter has been terrified of Scott Lee since the night he saved her from an evil sorcerer – then melted into a man-eating monster before her eyes. The werewolf is a slave to the moon, but Madison's nightmares are not.
Despite her fears, when Madison's brother, Clinton, is bitten by a werewolf, she knows there is only one man who can help. A man who frightens her all the more because even in her nightmares, he
also thrills her.
Together for the first time since that terrible night, Scott and Madison drive to Clinton's home only to discover that he's vanished. Frantic now, Madison must overcome her fears and uncover hidden strengths if she hopes to save him. And she's not the only one fighting inner demons. Scott's are literal, and they have him convinced that he will never deserve the woman he loves.

When I was asked to read Christine Amsden's new book,
Madison's Song, I was excited. I had previously read and reviewed all of her books in her
Cassie Scot series and was sad to see it go. So this spin off book was just what I needed to get back into that world.
Madison's Song is meant to be a stand alone book, so it's not necessary to read the series that it's spinning off from. However, if you do ever plan on reading Cassie Scot's story (which I do recommend), that should be read only because
Madison's Song has some spoilers that are mentioned.
That being said, if you have read the Cassie Scot books, you'll see some of the characters returned. Obviously the main character is Madison who was featured as more of a background character before, as well as another sideline character - Scott, Evan's werewolf friend. Both of those characters get a lot more flushed out and developed in this book, and the chapters even alternate between the two of their point of views.
There are also small glimpses into the world of Cassie Scot- mostly through Evan who is in the book a bit. Cassie, however does not make an appearance, but I was OK with that. This is Madison and Scott's story, so they shouldn't be overshadowed by another main character.
