Evergreen Ridge is a quiet mountain town where nothing unusual ever happens—until the night Rina Hale turns seventeen. A faint silver crescent mark appears on her wrist. She tries to ignore it… until she meets Aiden Vale — the mysterious boy everyone warns her about. Aiden is hiding a deadly secret. He carries the blood of the Alpha, the first cursed wolf, and every full moon brings him closer to losing control. His only wish is to protect Rina from the creature inside… even if it means staying away from her forever. But Rina begins to sense the forest. She can hear things no one else hears. She heals faster than humans should. And when the moon rises — the ruins call her name. Luka, a quiet hunter with mixed blood, discovers the truth first: Rina isn't just marked. She is bloodline. The last Moon-Keeper. Her power could end the curse… or awaken it completely. When a mysterious man arrives in town — a hunter with golden eyes just like Aiden — the truth rips open: The Alpha isn’t coming. He’s already awake. And he wants Rina. Now, Rina must choose between: Running from her destiny Or accepting the wolf inside her… Even if it means loving the very creature she was born to destroy.
