Samantha "Sam" Lee is an 18-year-old rockstar in New York City. She is the bass player and founder of an indie girl rock band, the Cream Puffs. Despite her band's success, Sam always acts like a loner. After a concert in Central Park, where her manager introduces her to two rich brothers, she rides her bike back home to her apartment, but further in the park, she gets attacked and bitten by a huge dog. The scars heal really fast the next morning and she keeps having hot flashes. She's also craving and eating meat, despite being a vegetarian since she was 12. One of the rich boys from the concert, Marlon, follows her and tries to warn her about the supernatural danger she's in for, but Sam dismisses him as a crazy stalker. Since her sudden changes, a gang of homeless girls start attacking people and witnesses say they "dress like dogs." One night, she grows FUR on her face and she can only bark. That same night, Marlon reveals that a werewolf attacked her and she's becoming one herself... and HE'S a werewolf too! His whole FAMILY are werewolves!
