Gwenore is ignored or bullied because every resident in Moon Danes, a middle-of-nowhere town, remembers what she did. When she was a kid she lied about two terrible things: being blind and the kidnapping of her best friend, Billie, for attention. Even Gwenore hates herself. She's as awful as the monster she could have sworn she saw take Billie-the inhuman being she fantasizes about every night, the one who looked at her like no one ever had. Like she was worth noticing . . . But Billie denies she was ever taken.
What really happened to Billie is a mystery that's lasted eight years. Gwenore wants answers, but more than anything, the high school senior just wants to fit in . . . somewhere. It's no wonder she's become obsessed with the strange school in the nearby woods.
When a new eccentric teacher comes along, promising to teach her about Hilltop Institute, she gets pulled into a dark world of shadow-beasts, betrayals, and vendettas. Soon she'll have to choose a side. Fight for the innocent or defend the monsters . . . the only problem is she doesn't know who's who.

For the Taking ✅
The girl with no wolf. An extra mouth to feed. A liability. A defenseless miscreation. Seraphina had heard it all. She had felt it all too. The bone aching bruises, the defenseless claw scratches just shy of her neck on the edges of her collarbone, she had seen it all too. It had been so long since it had started that she couldn't recall a time when the degradation was compliments and not insults. Now, it was all she ever expected. If she had known five years ago that not having a wolf would cause this much hate she would have begged her parents to move to another pack. It felt like an eternity since it all happened. Or rather what didn't happen. She still could not shift. She was defective. A mistake in the gene pool. But she didn't know she would end up like this. She couldn't have, just like she couldn't have expected to come face to face with the Alpha Slayer. A man casted in shadow. Not many had ever seen his face, but that didn't make him any less real. Alphas after all were dethroned from the likes of him. Word spreads quickly. So, when Seraphina ends up in his line of sight she has a lot more to figure out than just not having a wolf, because it very well might cost her, her life.
