The death of the Regional Alpha exposes Giselle to the deadly game of werewolf politics where friends are liabilities, boyfriends are weaknesses, and family are pawns strategically played against her. Finding her fur-ever family, after years lost in the foster care system, brought more drama than little werewolf Giselle had bargained for, especially when it's discovered she's the long lost daughter of the former Regional Alpha, Orion Silverman. After the current Alpha's death, Giselle is suddenly thrust into the brutal arena to prove herself. Her veins might run with the blood of Alphas, but all her enemies can see is a legacy of human weakness, and they'll do anything to prevent this feral pup from taking leadership. In the game of Alphas, claiming the title is the greatest prize, one which most would kill to achieve. But for Giselle to win, she'll have to risk her pack, her family… and her life.

Things would be perfect if supernatural disasters would quit creeping up and ruining Giselle's happy new life. After finally finding the fur-ever home she's always wanted a witch blows into town promising to reveal the bloody past of Giselle's birth, and the circumstances that led the little werewolf to end up in the foster care system to begin with. Hot on the witch's trail, another pack of wolves is on the hunt for revenge, and will accept nothing less than her death in retribution for the havoc she's wrought on them. Caught in the crossfire, Giselle desires only the truth, and if the witch is who she claims to be, the little werewolf must protect her at any cost. If she's lying, though, Giselle risks her own kind seeing her as a traitor. Neither her new pack nor her hottie witch boyfriend Damien can offer any help. Giselle is on her own again. And if she makes the wrong decision, she'll lose the only link she has to her past.

In a world where supernatural creatures are not out and proud, little werewolf Giselle has never known love, acceptance, or what it means to belong to a pack. A child of the foster system, she's been rejected by more families than she can count. No one wants a freak! When a family of shifters offers to adopt her, it's like a dream come true. Until Giselle discovers they're involved in a deadly power struggle dividing the paranormal factions in her city. When the body of a dead shifter is found in the desert, the new pack fostering Giselle is accused of the murder. Lines are drawn in the sand and, before she's even unpacked her bags, Giselle is told to chose her side.Unless she can unearth the truth before war breaks out, joining a pack might just send Giselle six feet under instead of back into the foster system.
