That illusion shatters the night she is kidnapped and thrown into a world of shadows and secrets—a world where wolves walk as men, and destiny isn’t something you choose but something that claims you. Kane, the enigmatic and cold leader of the wolf pack, insists that Alison is no ordinary human. She is the last of the White Tigers, a bloodline thought to be extinct—a lineage tied to unimaginable power and unspeakable danger. For Kane, Alison is the key to survival. For their enemies, she is the ultimate weapon. Caught in the crossfire between warring factions of wolves and deadly hunters, Alison struggles to reconcile the truth about her identity with the choices she must make.

It’s with the truth buried within her. She can restore what was lost. Or destroy what remains. Will Alison embrace her destiny, or will the weight of it break her?

The footsteps sounded closer, and closer, and closer, until he faintly heard Siri's voice welcoming someone into the house, but before he could open his eyes to see who it was, he felt a large hand gripping his neck, his legs were locked tightly between much larger ones, and, he felt the cold metal of a gun placed directly on his...gun.

He hated Zeno so much, he was classless and looked extremely dangerous to be near his son, who knew if he was sent as a snitch by an enemy?

Can the flames of passion be drawn from hate? Can that same passion burn down the walls of lies, betrayal, and hurt? Can its ashes transcend into love? Excerpt "I am a rose, a beautiful flower, delicate and precious! But you my dear sir are nothing but the thorny stem! Prickly, dangerous and very harmful!" ranted Neriah while poking his chest with her index finger. "Well you seem to forget one important detail, my love." He calmly grabbed her poking hand.

If I am a thorn then you are a piece of fish bone stuck inside my neck. I cannot swallow and I can not spit it out! I just have to bear it!" "You insolent bastard! Do you mean to say I am a burden!"

Golden eyes stared deep into hers. They were as green as the fresh leaves on an orange tree. His fingers caressed her face, “You might not be a precious prize, but by the heavens, you are mine.” And his lips fell on hers, and once again, another argument was drowned.
