Rowan Swan has always lived by logic. Science. Facts. While everyone else at Forks High spends lunch gossiping in the cafeteria, Rowan hides in the science room, determined to graduate early and get out of her small-town life. The only person she cares about leaving behind is her dad, Charlie.
Then Bella comes home.
Tasked with showing her younger sister around school, Rowan is dragged into the cafeteria for the first time in years. That's when she sees them. The Cullens. Beautiful, unnervingly quiet, and absolutely not normal. They move wrong. They act wrong. And every scientific instinct Rowan has screams that something about them is off.
But when she meets Emmett Cullen's eyes across the room, the world tilts.
Heat flares beneath her skin. Her pulse stutters. Her temper snaps without warning. Rowan tries to rationalize it, to explain away the strange strength, the irritability, the restless energy writhing under her skin.
She can't.
As Bella falls deeper into Edward Cullen's intense, unsettling orbit, Rowan begins to unravel. Something is happening to her.
Something wild, ancient and impossible.
But when the true predators arrive in Forks, the breaking point comes. Rowan phases for the first time... and everything she believed about herself shatters.
The Cullens aren't human.
And neither is she.
