She had a kind-of boyfriend, a spot on the field hockey team, good grades, and a circle of close friends. Of course there were bumps in the road: she and her lifelong BFF Cam were growing apart and her mother was trying to clone her into wearing sensible khakis instead of showy short skirts. But none of that mattered, because Nora always had her dad, Rhett Melchionda, on her side. Rhett was not only Nora\u2019s hero, but as the Athletic Director of Faber College, he was idolized by everyone she knew.<br \/>\nNow, Nora would give anything to go back to that life. The life before whatever happened on the golf course.<br \/>\nShe doesn\u2019t want to talk about it\u2014not that she could, because she doesn\u2019t remember anything\u2014and insists that whatever happened was nothing. Cam, though, tries to convince Nora to look for evidence and report the incident to the police. And then there\u2019s Adam Xu, who found Nora on the golf course and saw her at her most vulnerable. She ignores it all, hoping it will all go away. But when your silence might hurt other people, hiding is no longer an option.<br \/>\nThe Wolves Are Waiting begins in the aftermath of an attempted assault, but reaches farther than a story about one single night or one single incident. What Nora and her friends will uncover is a story that spans generations. But it doesn\u2019t have to anymore.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n\t\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n\t\"@type\":\"Review\",\n\t\"datePublished\": \"2022-03-23T10:00:00+00:00\",\n\t\"description\": \"\\nHappy Wednesday and welcome to my stop on the blog tour for THE WOLVES ARE WAITING by Natasha Friend!
