Revenge has deadly consequences. Seventeen-year-old Rebecca Winters’ main goal for ten years has been to graduate high school and take down the people who killed her parents. When she stumbles upon a werewolf pack in the middle of Phoenix, she discovers a way to make her dream come true. Instead of getting vengeance, an act of war places her in a position of power and forces her to put her thirst for family justice on a temporary hold.

He is duty-bound to protect her. Lucian (Lucky) Lamont is a member of the Protectors, an elite supernatural police force working for the Authority. Their main goal is to keep humans in the dark about the creatures who live among them. Lucky is assigned to protect and manage Rebecca, despite her refusal of help. His cover is simple; he poses as the dutiful ‘pretend’ boyfriend to keep an eye on the new alpha wolf. She is his mate.

Gabriel Black thought taking his pack back from the witch chosen as the new alpha would be simple. He thought wrong. His entire world turned upside down the moment he met Rebecca at the Authority Council meeting…and he was hooked the moment he kissed her to prove she wasn’t dating his best friend, Lucky.

It’s like being torn between two lovers. Rebecca is pulled in hundreds of different directions while she attempts to survive the supernatural world, protect her family, and discover who massacred her entire pack days before her first transformation. She doesn’t have time for romance. But the heart wants what the heart wants. And the wolf gets what the wolf wants – or so her alpha believes.

While Rebecca manages to keep her head above water as she unlocks political and family secrets that could destroy her, she loses sight of the most important people in her life, and one of them pays the ultimate price.
