A freshly independent woman who's spent her whole life under someone's thumb isn't about to let anyone—even a sinfully attractive werewolf king—tell her what to do, but when a mysterious killer starts mimicking werewolf murders across her city, she's forced into an uneasy partnership with the pack to track down the culprit. As she digs deeper into the investigation, the line between hunter and hunted blurs, and she discovers that her newfound freedom might come with a price she never expected. With a determined heroine who refuses to be coddled and a brooding alpha male who clearly didn't get the memo about respect for autonomy, this paranormal mystery crackles with tension, danger, and undeniable chemistry. Perfect for readers who crave that intoxicating blend of supernatural suspense and slow-burn romance with a heroine who won't back down.
