Five years later, after institutional hospitalization for the nightmare she’d faced, and the truth that no one believed, Marra was now free, but still burning with unanswered questions. She returns to the small mountain town where a fire killed her parents, and the monster who’d claimed her might still live. Either she’s crazy, or there is a man who turns into a monstrous wolf in these woods… Camden Shaw, future leader of his pack, loved and lost his fated mate in a single night. His family compound burned to the ground. After five long lonely years, he’d rebuilt the lodge, but where was his mate? He’d searched, but with no name, and all records destroyed by the fire, finding her seemed hopeless. Would fate bring them together again? Marra finds the man from her memories, and the monster.

As Cam tries to help Marra understand his supernatural world, they are once again ripped apart, this time, by dangerous witches and a plan to use Marra to rip through the veil of magic between worlds.
