    But theirs is particularly unique... Part One Warren Bane lives a double life. By day, he’s vice principal at Blue Falls, Idaho’s, elementary school. By night, he runs with his pack through the forests on the outskirts of town. Hiding his wolf-shifting identity isn’t always easy, but it’s worth it to live free with his family on the twenty-eight-acre plot of land that his father first settled the pack on forty years ago. It’s a good life, but not one that he can ever share with a human woman. So when beautiful Indie Zimmerman walks into his school’s third-grade classroom, the attraction he feels for her isn’t just problematic. It’s downright dangerous. Indie Zimmerman has moved to Blue Falls for a fresh start after the deaths of her parents. Being near the grandparents who helped raise her, taking her very first teaching job straight out of college, in a town surrounded by a landscape straight out of a storybook—everything seems to be going great. Then her instant attraction to rugged Warren Bane puts her in the path of unexpected danger. Part Two Zimmerman is torn between two worlds. On the one hand, her love for Warren makes her want to fight to understand this new world she’s suddenly been thrust into—his world. On the other hand, she desperately wants to return to the normalcy of her life. But that can never be. For now, survival is the name of the game. Warren Bane is brokenhearted as he watches Indie. In addition to the pain he feels seeing the woman he loves suffer, there’s the present danger hanging over both their heads and over the lives of the entire pack. Someone is out to destroy them, one by one. Several of his dearest friends have already been murdered and Warren is determined to avoid losing yet another loved one to the specter suddenly haunting his pack. Gabriela. Part Three Warren Bane’s focus has now switched from survival to battle. With the very lives of his pack and of his mate, Indie Zimmerman, at stake, he’s forced to turn to help to the last person he’d ever think to trust—Peter. Besides the fact that Peter’s particular supernatural abilities are unnerving even to a wolf shifter, Peter’s attraction to Indie continues to be a bone of contention between the two men. But with everything on the line, there’s nothing left to do but join forces. Gabriela’s quest for revenge first brought Indie Zimmerman into the line of fire. Now a fully-fledged wolf shifter, Indie feels as much of a loyalty to her pack and to her love, Warren, as she does to her human grandparents. But that loyalty will be tested to the extremes as she, Warren, and Peter begin a frantic search to take down the woman who is seeking to destroy everything they hold dear.
