Kayla found solace in the simple, honest rules of the wild. On the back of her immense Persian-cross, Coda, she navigates the dusty roads and dense woods of her county, clinging to the memory of her true love, Austin, killed in a mysterious accident two years prior. Though the elders call his death a risk of their clan's world, the silence surrounding the killer is a heavy, sinister anomaly. ​Her oldest friend, Blake, once her confidant and partner in crime, has become a suffocating threat. He sees her enduring grief as an obstacle to his predetermined claim, twisting their shared history into a desperate justification for his predatory advances. As Blake's charm wears thin, revealing an unstable, jealous rage and a horrifying, violent past he forced her to repress, Kayla realizes she's trapped. ​Haunted by a shattering trauma and emotionally hollowed out, Kayla must reclaim her inner strength and her rightful place as a clan leader. But to do that, she must first escape the physical and psychological prison Blake is building around her-a prison that seems to be part of a larger, darker conspiracy tied to Austin's murder. ​In the shadow of the Creepy Chicken House and the whispering pines, Kayla races against a terrifying truth: the rules of survival in the woods are clear, but the motives of the men she once loved are a labyrinth of deadly lies.

Caroline had a troubled life. She was the alpha’s daughter his prize as he’d say. Even when she found her mate. They couldn’t tell a soul. She left her father and their evil pack behind only to find out everything they were ever told was a lie.
