I had two childhood dreams: to shift into a wolf, and to win Nordin Stormsson’s forbidden heart.

My second was crushed when Nordin rejected me…only to claim another as his mate. Heartbroken, I crossed beyond the wards in search of my birth clan. My freedom came at a cost. Dragons, vampyrs, and enemy wolves stalked me through the dark. They weren’t the only ones who came after me, though.
