Everything started the second that Laurel Black decided to dye her hair blue, an act of rebellion that is apparently the last straw for her wrung out parents, who ship her off to Alaska to live with her soldier brother, Devan.
All is well -or not well, depending on how you look at the situation- until Devan's best friend Raven Linch comes a-knocking on the door of the secluded cabin that has been home to Laurel for six months.
Raven is distressed, sarcastic, music obsessed, and a werewolf.
Not something that normally happens in Alaska, right?
Or is it?
Threats to the immediate area from a pack called the Anchorage Pack send Laurel and Raven packing and booking it back to California, the only place Laurel is even remotely safe.
Along the way, the disastrous duo run into rogues, Betas, Alphas, Phera Cortez-es, and more.
Some where in between Alaska and California, Laurel unearths a little secret that Raven has been harboring ever since he met the blue-haired-brat: they're soul mates.
Of course.

Rewrite of IATA.
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.
