"Last, but not least, avoid cliche's like the plague." -William Safire

Kicked out at the age of 16 for fornicating with a human, Leary Hallowell has spent most of her adult life suppressing her "wild side" and living life as a human. When her beautiful family is threatened by a rival pack by the name of Las Lunas de Sangre- "The Blood Moons"-, Leary returns home seeking sanctuary. 

Back home, her welcome is anything but warm, and a list of conditions have been set out before her. Her ability to protect her family rests solely on her willingness to cast aside her pride and accept everything her father has lain out for her.

While Leary struggles with the decision, dark forces are gathering, ready to take everything that Leary holds dear. 

(I'm no good at synopsis'; this will be updated with a better one at a later date.)
