  Synopsis

  Rosabel McGuiness, orphaned werewolf, has finally decided to leave the werelion pride she’s been living with for the last eighteen years. She’s been challenged to one duel too many. It’s time to find a pack to call home.

  Theodore Wilson, Alpha of the Mount Roxby Pack, has never cared about finding his mate. He swore off women when his wife, a human who knew nothing about what he was cheated on him. But now a new wolf has walked into town, and stirred up feelings he never imagined he would feel.

  Mount Roxby has a plethora of supernatural beings, unbeknownst to the humans that live there. After a series of mysterious disappearances, and fatal attacks on both werewolves and vampires alike, Rosabel decides something needs to be done. But can she persuade the Pack Alpha and Vampire King, to put old prejudices behind them long enough to work together, and solve these attacks? Or will one bite too many cause a war?

  PROLOGUE

  Rosabel - Six Years Ago

  “Bel, get your butt down these stairs now,” Uncle Jack bellows from the basement.

  “I’m coming. Geez, am I not allowed to even eat breakfast?” I answer, not bothering to shout, knowing he’ll hear me clearly, with his werelion hearing, even if I whisper. Were-animals have extra sensitive hearing.

  Aunt Lily pats my back as I pass her heading to the basement door. “He doesn’t want to lose you in this duel, sweetheart. It’s your first duel and he knows how strong Jerome is. It has him worried.”

  I take a deep breath before opening the door and head down the stairs. The next few hours are going to be painful. Uncle Jack will push me, hard.

  Uncle Jack started training me the day after I arrived, at the age of ten. He knew I needed it because as soon as I reached the legal age of duelling - which happened to be eighteen - I would be challenged, time and time again until one of them killed me. The lions just don’t think a wolf deserves to be part of their pride. The thing is I don’t even want to be part of their stupid pride.

  I just want somewhere to call home.

  My home was taken away from me when my parents died. My legal guardian, Aunt Lily, is the only tie I have to my parents. At eighteen, I’m old enough to go off on my own, but my Aunt, Uncle and cousin Benji, are family. I love them and don’t want to leave them.
