"She was like the moon,
all alone, shining bright.
Her beauty would make you swoon,
whenever you saw her light.
Then the wolf came along,
with stagger in his stride.
With him, she would belong,
as he would howl with pride.
She was no longer alone,
as he would stay close by.
For her beauty always shown,
and it always made him sigh.
Together forever,
whenever day turned to night.
He would forsake her never,
for he'd die without her light..."
"THE WOLF AND THE MOON" By Laura Hughes
In which Luna Hale comes back to her hometown to face older and new demons alike, while facing the complex challenge of not being your average teenager...
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.
