Shadow world (REWRITE)

Josie Hart thought she was human until the night her body betrayed her. One moment she is standing in her grandmother's old stone house, the only home she has left, and the next she is tearing through furniture, bones burning, senses exploding, a wolf fighting its way out of her skin. She nearly hurts Joselynn II, and that is the moment Josie realizes she cannot stay.

Armed with nothing but a name her mother once whispered and never explained, Josie heads for Grayhaven, searching for a biological father she has never met. But she arrives too late. Hector is already dead, and what she finds instead is the Ravenwood Pack, a grieving den that does not know what to do with the secret their fallen brother never knew he left behind. The new Beta, Damon, looks at Josie like she is a problem he has to solve and a betrayal he cannot forgive. Ally, mated to Damon and loyal to her Alpha, becomes Josie's first ally. And Cole, the twenty one year old Alpha who never wanted the crown yet wears it anyway, feels Josie the moment he sees her. The mate pull hits like lightning. He fights it like war.

Because Josie is half wolf, late shifting, and dangerous. Because Cole has already buried too much love. And because in Ravenwood, bonds make you strong, but they also make you bleed.

Now Josie must learn control before the full moon steals it from her, while pack politics tighten and a rival claim circles closer. The truth about her bloodline is already waking. And the shadow that has followed her since childhood is finally close enough to bite.
