A silver wolf who shifted into the most gorgeous man I'd ever seen, and no matter how hard I try to ignore it, there’s something pulling me toward him. Secrets come to light, and nothing is as it seemed.

Monsters. I’ve routinely hunted them my entire life, wanting to wipe their kind from this realm. My deadly accurate aim has kept me alive this long. Until now. I miss a shot for the first time and come face to face with my targets. I should have died. Instead, these creatures drag me back to their land and hold me captive. Wes—the commanding demon in charge. Bo—the sadistic alpha. Dash—I don’t know what he is, but he’s too cheery for this realm.

Running away won’t ever be one of them again, though. I’m back at Spring Hill High to fight for the ones I love. Fight against a set of enemies that want to take everything I have away.

In the heart of the Appalachian Mountains, an explosive disaster traps Rachel Hatch in a crumbling tunnel—and it’s no accident. As survivors struggle to escape, Hatch discovers evidence that points to something far more sinister: a meticulously staged collapse designed to look like a natural catastrophe.

For Hatch, normal is never easy. But in the months since surviving a deadly encounter atop an Alaskan glacier, she's settled into her life in Coronado.

But what should have been a simple visit quickly turns dark when a mysterious power outage plunges the town into isolation. As supplies dwindle and tempers flare, it becomes clear that Riverton isn’t just dealing with a disaster—it’s part of something far more sinister.

Dazed and confused, we look for answers in all the wrong places. Our life becomes directed by fear instead of faith. We grow disheartened. Our faith can weaken. There are perfect times in your future when your life will blossom. All that god asks is for you to wait for them to be revealed.
