Wolves beneath the veil
Aria Hart never planned on staying in Wolvesbane Hollow for long. Coming back to the small, creepy town of her childhood after her grandmother’s sudden death was supposed to be a short trip—just enough time to settle her grandmother’s estate and move on with her life. But the town has other plans for her.
Wolvesbane Hollow is a place where secrets hide behind every tree, and Aria soon finds herself in the center of its dark mysteries. The most alarming of them all is Dominic Blackwood, an unsettlingly attractive man who takes it upon himself to let Aria in on both his family’s history and that of the town he lives in.
As Aria uncovers more about what really happened to her grandmother decades ago, she comes to realize not only that there are stories told around Wolvesbane Hollow late into the night for a reason—but they’re also true. There are werewolves haunting this sacred piece of Appalachian forest, and it’s no accident that one of those sinister beings seems to have gnawed through half of their umbrella cordage. A relic hidden centuries ago guards Wolvesbane Hollow from the world outside—and from greater dangers still that have already begun escaping into wolves’ clothing themselves.
Thrown between attraction and shame over how drawn she is becoming toward Dominic as well as duty and resentment at having inherited this nightmare of a legacy in the first place, Aria must choose. She can either protect these shadowed riddles like everyone else before her has been doing or risk everything she ever thought had been hers—often eaten by months-dead carnivores—to try lifting the Curse once and for all.
