All I have is my Yellowstone home, and I'll tear out your throat if you threaten it." Park Ranger and lynx shifter Jordan Quinn wants nothing to do with the packs that surround the neutral Yellowstone territory. She left that life behind a long time ago and her sort-of boyfriend, Everett Palmer, Chief of Police of Jackson, Wyoming, thinks she's human. But in a shifter territory war, Jordan's neutrality may not be enough to keep her safe. As the bodies start to pile up, covered in mysterious bites, Jordan knows that someone's trying to create a new shifter, despite the ban. But how can she warn the police? If she breaks the shifter secrecy law, or if Everett realizes the truth, they'll both be killed. When Jordan discovers that Everett has secrets of his own, she begins to question everything she knew about him. Is he really worth her loyalty? Jordan must determine what lines she's willing to cross to fight for what she wants. If she goes too far, she risks more than her own life, she risks the Yellowstone shifters.

In a world ruled by ancient witch families, bloodlines are law - and power is inherited, controlled, and closely watched. When seventeen-year-old Ilyra Valecrest is summoned to Blackthorne Academy, she knows only one thing for certain: her bloodline was erased for a reason. Raised beyond the reach of the Crown, she arrives uncrested, unclaimed, and already under suspicion. Blackthorne is no ordinary academy. It is a place where royal heirs are shaped into rulers, where magic is disciplined into obedience, and where every mistake is recorded. As Ilyra undergoes bloodline evaluations and brutal scrutiny from both faculty and students, it becomes clear that her magic does not behave like theirs. It listens. It answers. And it refuses to be contained. Among the heirs watching her closely is a Nightvale boy bound by restraint and shadow - a presence as dangerous as it is controlled. Their connection is unspoken but undeniable, stirring something old beneath the Veil that protects the academy and the realm itself. As rivalries ignite, alliances fracture, and the Crown tightens its grip, Ilyra must decide whether survival means submission - or if claiming her inheritance will unravel the very system built to erase her. Because some bloodlines were not lost. They were buried. And awakening them comes at a cost.
