Honey has always believed in the ordinary world around her, where fairy tales are just bedtime stories told by her grandmother. After years of living with her grandmother, Honey's parents decide she should complete her final year of high school with them. This transition brings new challenges, but also new opportunities.
In her last year of high school, Honey meets Albert, a charming and mysterious young man who immediately sweeps her off her feet. Their friendship blossoms into a deep connection, one that feels almost magical. However, as their bond strengthens, Honey begins to notice strange occurrences that defy explanation.
Albert isn't just an ordinary human. When Honey discovers his true identity, she realizes she has been living amongst the fantastical creatures of those bedtime stories all along. Her life is turned upside down as she uncovers secrets that change everything she thought she knew.
What happens when the lines between reality and fairy tales blur? How will Honey navigate a world she never knew existed, and what dangers lurk in the shadows of her newfound reality? As she grapples with these revelations, Honey must decide who to trust and how to protect those she loves in a world where nothing is as it seems.
A genetically unique but emotionally lost teenager must figure out who she is within her mixed-up, warring world of Shifters and Wolfstalkers.
*****
It wasn't Maddie's choice to be born a half-breed, half Shifter, half Wolfstalker -- a hunter of Shifters -- and it wasn't her choice to keep her identity a secret. But after trying to attend high school like any normal sixteen-year-old, things quickly spiral south when her Stalker uncle finds out about her and catapults her out of anonymity and into the awareness--or possibly the crosshairs--of The Order of the Wolfstalker. Maddie must think fast and figure out a way to keep herself and her family safe, or risk losing everything. Including her life.
