Three truths haunt Blackwood, Tennessee: The forest remembers every debt Wolves walk as men under the crescent moon No Bloom woman lives to see twenty-two Lyra Morganatic’s 21st birthday gift is a death sentence: A silver pendant from her missing grandmother. Cryptic messages from the unknown. And dreams of a silver-eyed wolf watching her from the shadows. Then Ethan Parker returns. The boy who kissed her under the ancient oak and vanished without a word, now with fresh scars carved into his skin. His hunter family says Lyra must die before the next full moon. Because: The pendant binds her to a blood-curse older than the town Her sacrifice keeps the forest from breaking loose The last Bloom witch always dies before the curse can end But Lyra refuses to be a sacrifice. As the coven closes in and the line between predator and protector blurs, she must choose: Break the curse and let the wild consume Blackwood OR Bind it tighter and lose what’s left of her soul The wrong choice drowns Blackwood in blood. The right one costs Lyra the boy whose howl still echoes in her bones.
