Shifters.
Maren Veilwood is the only daughter of Roland Veilwood, Genesis of the Veilwood pack. Youngest of their bloodline, she is also the most overlooked - mistaken for fragile, dismissed as inconsequential. In a world that prizes strength above all else, her gentle nature is deemed a flaw.
When she is cast out for that so-called weakness, Maren is forced into exile, stripped of her title and protection. Survival leads her to sanctuary where she least expects it.
The Stone Pack.
Dorian Stone, its Genesis, is nothing like his younger brother. He is not warm, nor hopeful, nor naive. He is forged from brutality and burden - responsibility was his inheritance. Optimism is a luxury he'll never get the chance to enjoy. As Genesis, he was required to grow up too quickly, and happiness was never part of the bargain.
Until her.
She is the light in his merciless world - a girl capable of coaxing life from ruin. Of making flowers bloom through stone.
And in the darkness they share, something dangerous and beautiful begins to take root.
