He knows her name, he knows her secrets, and he commands a pack of shifters who watch her every move. Silas is her protector—and her greatest threat. As their attraction turns into a lethal obsession, Wynter’s memories begin to surface. Every searing touch brings her closer to a terrifying truth: the blood on her lace might be her own, or it might be the mark of a killer. In a world of shifting shadows and jagged hearts, Wynter must uncover who she was before Silas consumes who she is. Because in this forest, love doesn't just hurt—it bites.
