For three hundred years, Gwyn Rood has been a creature of "too much"-too wolf for the vampires, too cold for the packs. As a rare hybrid born in the 1700s, she has survived by mastered the art of the exit, never staying in one place long enough to be discovered or hunted.
She settled in Shreveport for the quiet, content to hide her dual nature behind a waitress's apron at Merlotte's and a fierce, protective friendship with Sookie Stackhouse. For the first time in centuries, Gwyn felt like she was standing still.
Then came Alcide Herveaux.
Drawn to the pack leader's rugged strength and unexpected warmth, Gwyn finds her carefully constructed walls crumbling. But loving a man like Alcide isn't simple; he is a pillar of a community that prizes lineage, and Gwyn is a walking defiance of the laws of nature.
As the heat of a Louisiana summer rises, so do the stakes. Gwyn must decide if she is willing to trade her solitary safety for the beautiful chaos of belonging-and if her hybrid heart is strong enough to survive the exposure.
