[Previously "The Anomaly of Gavin Wilde"]
Emma Austen, daughter of the infamous Alpha Lillian, is outcast for her peculiar disposition: her ability to shift and take on bizarre Alpha qualities even her mother hasn't seen before. In the world Emma lives in, female werewolves aren't a normal "thing", so when it comes to school, night runs, and all of the above, she has to act like one of the guys. Acting like one of the guys makes the next bit tough: she has to get married. Before she's 21. Or risk an arrange marriage. Oh joy.
At the age of nineteen, Emma decides this is the year she's going to find "the one" (whatever that means). Through a series of unfortunate events, Emma is kidnapped and taken across state border to atone for her indecency of being a female werewolf--only, there's a change of plans when curious wayward traveler, Gavin Wilde, swings by in his iconic turquoise Volkswagen that hails from Stoughton, Wisconsin.
As it turns out, circumnavigating the United States via BMW Volkswagen van is better spent with two people rather than one.
[SEQUEL TO "THE WILD", BUT CAN BE READ SEPARATELY]

She had boys falling at her feet. Until one day, the soon to be alpha, Brandon goes to her school and they end up being mates. Emma doesn't want him because she was brought up to hate werewolves. But when she does get a little close, Brandon breaks her heart. She loses her best friend and ends up living in the woods. Little did she know that she was actually going to face one of the hardest decisions. Take over the vampire world, or stay with the boy who had broken her heart once before? Do they even end up together?
