Lauren is a playful, boyish and slightly irresponsible 16-year-old girl. Forced to move to Beacon Hills by her father’s journalism ambitions, she know little of the many mysteries hiding in the shadows of the small town. Accustomed to a worriless life, she soon finds herself sucked into a world full of werewolves, hunters, samurais and demons. On top of her crumbling relationship with her father, constantly dropping grades and terrifying creatures from the underworld creeping out of every corner, she has to deal with a possible crush on her new-found best friend, Stiles.
