In the world of werewolves, everyone knows the famous tale of mates. You know that one person is supposed to be your other half, the final half of your soul. You are supposed to love them through the good, the bad, and everything in-between. You are supposed to fight right beside that person no matter what. It is why they are chosen by the moon.
But now the mate bond has been weakening. In Emryn's world, it is almost impossible to find your significant other. So it has become time for her to take the test like every other 18-year-old wolf. The test will determine who is most compatible with her and who she will spend the rest of her life with. Everyone always thought Emryn would be paired with her best friend, Cam. But the moon doesn't always give you what you want. In the end, she must make the decision to either conform, or rebel against her mate.
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.
