She was looking for her destiny. She never expected to find her mate. And she might lose both.

Breana has spent her life safely sheltered from the world beyond the mountains of Neli. But when a mysterious pull leads her beyond the borders of everything she’s ever known, she discovers the apocalypse didn’t end the world — and her people aren’t the only ones who survived.

But, like Breana, they aren’t quite human anymore.

Among the survivors she encounters is a group of people who can turn into wolves, and their leader, Dom, takes an unexpected interest in her.

He’s intriguing. He’s dangerous. He’s hiding a vicious beast he fears he can’t control.

And somehow, he’s the man whose soul calls to hers.

Their life together has barely begun when mysterious, phoenix-like creatures tear Dom away, and Breana risks everything to bring him home. Her journey will lead her through dangerous lands, introduce her to a family she never expected to have, and force her to question everything she was taught about the world — and herself.

Fate can bring two people together. But can it keep them together when they’re forced to face their fears… and the beast within?
