“Don’t come any closer,” I warned, my FBI badge useless in the face of this fanged monster. “I’ll scratch and bite.” “You’ll crawl and beg too.” Phantom promised as he strode closer, a glint of desire danced in his eyes. “And that Special Agent…will only be the start of it.” The Costello’s were mine. Mine to corner. Mine to hunt. Mine to bring to their knees. I’ve hunted Ruth for years now. Sat outside her house. Tracked every shady deal she’d ever done. She’s my ticket to her family, and the entire cesspool they play in. The Costello’s are lower than low…they are liars…they are mobsters. They are Mafia. This is more than a case for me. This was personal. The last bullet in my father’s ruined policing career. He’s a drunk now and alone…and I’m his only visitor—pathetic huh? Only a war erupted. A war which I’m now part of…a war between the beasts that roam west of my city and the powerful Immortals they answer to. I replayed that night in slow motion. Fangs. Blood…and Phantom. The Alpha of the Wolves. The one I saved from a rogue Vampire. And the one who saved me. I carry his bite mark on my shoulder…and the memory of his pack. He might think he has a handle on me… He might think this is more than what it was… He’s about to find out how wrong he is.

Crown City is divided. Mortals on one side of the river and the beasts on the other. Only I’m a woman caught in the middle, and now I’m forced to choose a side. Return to the FBI who’s hunting us, or run with the Wolves? Phantom, Church, Vitold and Arran. They’re hiding for a crime they didn’t commit, bullet-riddled and bleeding they’re considered weak now and their territory fair game. But there’s nothing weak about Phantom. Or our pack. As other Wolves start circling, looking for a way to take what’s ours a new darkness emerges. One that has hunted me before. And as Phantom’s past rises we are forced to confront a beast so powerful it could destroy us all. Only I won’t let it. I will fight. I will hunt. I will love.

Chaos ruled my life. Dark, foul…malevolent. I thought my battles were over. Thought I was finally part of the pack. But that Unseelie curse in my chest has other ideas. She wants the Wolves for herself…and she’ll force me to do the unthinkable. Betray the Vampires. Now Crown City’s Immortal Mafia Clans are divided. Wolves against Vampires. The Fae trapped in the middle. And the FBI is hunting all of us down. But there is a new enemy in the shadows. A darker, more powerful beast who’s out for blood and Phantom faces a predator like he’s never battled before. There is no more running now, no more pleading. No more deals to be done. There is nothing but standing up to be counted…and fight like never before.
