Her life is only further complicated when she is assigned to a homicide investigation that mirrors her brother's murder.

Thinking it might be the suspect, she investigates, but what she initially thinks is a large dog turns out to be anything but. Unfortunately, Brooke does not escape this encounter unscathed, and she is left with more than just the physical scars to remind her of the night her life was unknowingly and irreparably altered. When the next full moon rises, an entirely new world is opened up to Brooke, unlocking the secrets behind the investigation and her brother's unsolved murder. less

Along with her ex-boyfriend, Nick Evans, they make the trip to the Canadian Rockies where his Pack is located. Nick has promised her answers, and she knows that only he and the Pack can help her through this transition. The change in scenery isn’t an instant fix, however. Brooke still struggles with accepting what she’s become: a werewolf. Even more, she struggles with the knowledge that it cost her the life of the man she loved. Brooke lives with constant nightmares of that night, and the only thing that helps ease her suffering is the one who caused her the most seven years ago: Nick. She shares a connection with him that she can’t quite explain; at first, it’s nothing more than familiarity before these feelings of betrayal slowly revert back to love and trust. As if trying to control her urges isn’t enough, when they arrive at the manor, Brooke is met with more challenges than she originally thought. A jealous female, an aggressive full-blood, and lies make adjusting to this life almost impossible. When the vampire coven they thought was defeated declares war on the Pack, can they come together as a team to save themselves, or will the secrets Brooke uncovers drive a wedge between her and her newfound family before they even stand a chance? less

Images flash, reminding her of Nick’s involvement in her attack several months ago and her decision to leave. It wasn’t her intention to leave for good; she just needed a little time to clear her head. She never thought that she’d fall victim to a trap set by the vampire coven they’ve been at war with, and she most definitely didn’t expect to find something her pack had thought lost to them for the better part of a decade As time passes, Brooke is subjected to various tests, and it isn’t until she comes face to face with the new Coven leader that she finds out why Gianna had gone after her back in Scottsdale in the first place. The former vampire queen’s plans force the Pack to search for answers, but they only uncover a complex web of deception expertly woven by Gianna and her coven. When tragedy strikes, will Brooke be able to keep the Pack from falling apart in order to derail the coven’s plot once and for all? Or will the coven succeed in using Brooke as their ultimate weapon in their war? less
