When Red witnesses her grandmother's murder, she escapes into the woods before the killer - who happens to be her older brother - can catch her. The cabin in the forest is peaceful, quiet, and isolated. It has everything she needs to survive. It even comes with a pet wolf who keeps her company. But when her brother's henchmen find her hiding spot, she's all alone in the fight for her life. Nash didn't expect a human to wander into shifter territory, but now that she's here, Nash can't imagine life without Red. When she's attacked by wolves in the dark of the forest, Nash has no choice but to save her. There's just one problem: she doesn't know he's a shifter.

Nash is learning that trying to unite a disorganized and volatile pack of shifters isn't as easy as it looks. In fact, it seems downright impossible. He wants to spend all of his free time with his new bride, but every time he gets Red alone, someone needs his help. It's almost as if someone is distracting him on purpose... Red is having a tough time fitting in with The Silent Canines. The group of shifters might have accepted Nash as their Alpha, but Red? She's human. Why should they make her feel at home? With her mating ceremony to Nash looming in the future, Red can't help but wonder if he'd be better off without her. The pack certainly thinks so. Then something happens that changes everything and the future they've been working so hard to build could be crushed. Will Red and Nash be able to make it through the dark together? Author's Note: This story is the second in the Red series and should be read after Red: Into the Dark.

Red and Nash have been through the dark together, but what awaits them on the other side? Red and Nash are preparing to celebrate their one-year anniversary of marriage and their first year together leading The Silent Canines. Red has a surprise up her sleeve for Nash, though, and the wolf-shifter has no idea what's coming. Will their anniversary be everything she hopes it will be?
