Serafina and the Twisted Staff by Robert Beatty
It's been a while since I read book 1 so I don't really remember that much of it, but I really enjoyed this book, and I feel like I liked this more than the first. This had a lot of action and adventure as well as some twists and turns and surprises. Serafina desperately wants to shift into a lion like her mother, but she can't. She is out in the woods and sees a carriage pulled by four stallions but nobody is driving. A strange man with silver eyes gets out and she gets attacked. Then, strange things start happening at the house. She things Braeden isn't her friend anymore, especially when Lady Rowena shows up; I knew she was bad from the jump. But, they both give her a chance and that comes back to bite them (almost literally). She meets Waysa, another lion shifter. She discovers a camp with cages, that she and Braeden end up getting caught in later. Turns out, the man with the silver eyes is the mythical man in the forest and Lady Rowena is his daughter and he had been doing some shady things on the land before the Vanderbilt's bought the land and he swore vengeance upon them and this was him coming back to get it. Also, the reason Serafina couldn't turn into a lion is because she's a panther; but during the climax she is able to shift and in her panther form she attacks the sliver eye man, when he is in his owl form. Also, Braeden has powers with animals and is able to heal them, and he heals a peregrine falcon which helps them take out Lady Rowena. This was really enjoyable and I am looking forward to continuing the series.
