"Don't live in fear my child, for the ax of has not fallen yet."
Rayce Axe is next in line to be alpha. He is supposed to be regal and authoritative and able to lead his pack to victory against any sign of danger. But that isn't who Rayce is. He's sweet, quiet, and can't stand to boss anyone around. Despite his huge size, he's the laughing stock of the pack. Everyone knows that he is no alpha. All he is is a scared little boy hiding behind a soon to be title. And he starts to believe that himself. He's a pathetic excuse for someone of great blood such as himself.
Until the dreams start. The dreams of an angel that will come to save him...wearing thongs? And why does Rayce suddenly feel as if he should wear them too? To be closer to this mysterious dream person that might be the first person to except him the way he is?
Haiden Carmichael is trapped. His father isn't the man he's supposed to be. A father is supposed to bring his son to ball games, teach his son how to talk to girls, and play catch with him in the backyard. But Haiden's father isn't like that. He's kept him captive for years. Haiden doesn't like to refer to himself as a slave but...he's damn close to one.
The only outlet he has is his body. He likes to wear what some would refer to as "feminine" clothing. Crop tops, skinny jeans, and lacy thongs make him feel comfortable and more beautiful..more okay with himself. He does normally get stares and disgusted looks, but stepping into a bookstore one night right before setting off for a night club, Haiden doesn't just feel a set of eyes on him; they burn into the back of his head, scanning his body up and down so slowly he's on fire.
What will it be like for a smothered human like Haiden when Rayce Axe drops straight into the middle of his chaotic life tries to fix both of them?
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.
