I've read those books! Those are super weird books! As far as I know Carmody still hasn't written the third book in the trilogy, and it's probably because she's HORRIBLE about ending series (she keeps starting new ones without ending any of the old ones WHY), but also possibly because she wrote herself into a corner with "But can Rage REALLY have a romantic relationship with her transformed pet dog Billy Thunder who she raised from a puppy??" (I guess Rage/Logan might offer a get out of jail free card on that one, but it feels like a cop-out.)

Raisa at least started out human before becoming a wolf, so I feel like the set-up as a whole is less creepy... but still, Masha and Raisa would need at least a few months and probably a whole novel to evolve their relationship from "human and pet wolf who is actually a human transformed into wolf form" to "two humans who are in love."
