On her eighteenth birthday, Amara Blackwood finally meets her fated mate, only to discover that he is the future Alpha of her pack. Then he rejects her in front of everyone. Broken and ashamed, Amara leaves her pack and swears she will never return. Five years later, she comes back as a completely different woman. But she soon discovers that her life was never as simple as she believed. Amara is the last living descendant of the first werewolf king, a bloodline that was erased from history for a reason. Her blood carries an ancient power that can control every wolf in existence. But there is a price. The more Amara uses her power, the more she loses pieces of herself. If she uses it to stop the war that is spreading across the packs, she may lose the memories of everyone she loves, including the very man who once broke her heart. And there is something even worse. The Alpha who rejected her knew about her bloodline all along. Now he needs Amara to save his pack, but helping him could mean giving him the power to control every werewolf in the world. Amara has spent five years learning how to survive without him. Now she must decide whether to save the man who destroyed her or finally destroy the secret that has been keeping the werewolf world alive.
