In the quiet town of Pine Hollow, nothing ever changes, and nothing ever happens-or so Seren Jameson has always believed. Restless and yearning for something more, she dreams of breaking free from the suffocating monotony of small-town life. But when Elijah, a mysterious new student with a shadowy past, arrives halfway through junior year, everything shifts. Rumours swirl around him, and though Seren knows she should stay away, she finds herself irresistibly drawn to the enigma he presents.
As she gets closer to Elijah, Seren begins to uncover secrets that could shatter the fragile peace of Pine Hollow and her own life. But the more she learns, the more she realizes that excitement comes with a price. In a town where everyone knows everyone else's business, how much is Seren willing to risk to uncover the truth-and what will happen when the truth finally comes to light?
In The Roots Beneath, Seren must navigate the complexities of friendship, family, and first love, all while grappling with the unsettling feeling that her life is on the brink of a seismic change. Will Elijah be the excitement she's been searching for, or will he bring more trouble than she ever could have imagined?

Luna Audrey
-COMPLETED- Audrey Allen had lived her entire life in the Dark Root pack, and every minute of it had been dreadful. Well, perhaps not every minute of her life, but every moment she had endured since her mother's death ten years ago had shaped her into the pathetic excuse for a woman that she was today. Or at least, that's how she viewed herself. A decade of neglect and abuse would do that to a girl. All Audrey believed she was good for was cooking and cleaning the pack house, and her father had her doubting even those abilities. Alpha Dean Whittaker had ruled as Alpha of Dark Root for eight years by himself. Although he secretly craved his mate, his Luna, to appear in his life and allow him to strengthen his pack even more, he knew his chances of ever finding her were slim. He was feared by both his own pack members and surrounding packs, so even if he ever did find his mate, he'd likely have to force her to stay. Not that that'd be a problem - Alpha Dean did as he pleased. When a chance encounter brings Audrey and Dean face-to-face, both of their lives are turned upside down. As they endure the new challenges life has presented them, they find that they possess the power to either build each other up, or tear each other apart. ______________________ #1 in Werewolf 4/12/2020 #1 in Love 4/16/2020 Cover by @victoriapinkglitter LUNAS SERIES ORDER: -Luna Hana -Luna Lena -Luna Audrey -Luna Zahra -Luna Skylar -Luna Brenna -Luna Melody **Luna Hana and Luna Lena are the first two books in the series.
