She was trained to fight monsters. She never expected to become one. Once a celebrated knight of Eldoria, Dame Caela of Dunrowen has lived in exile since the war that broke her battalion and her spirit. Her only companion is Bramble, a massive warhound with unsettling intelligence and golden eyes that never blink. But when Caela stumbles upon a ruined village and finds the ancient Moonborne sigil carved in blood, she’s pulled into a chilling mystery. The dead whisper of wolf-creatures part man, part beast long thought extinct. And as the full moon rises, Caela discovers the truth she’s buried in nightmares and half-memories: She is one of them. Cursed or chosen by an ancient bloodline, Caela must confront the monster inside her. Hunted by her former allies and courted by a growing werewolf pack that sees her as their rightful queen, she must choose: Submit to the beast within or master it. But as war brews between humans and Moonborne, one truth remains: In a world of monsters, loyalty is the sharpest weapon and Bramble may be the key to her humanity or the reason she loses it.
