Kael Anderson lost his future mate and luna, Stephanie, during a rogue attack. Stephanie's death left his entire pack in mourning; her death anniversary was even declared a pack holiday.

Five years later, Kael discovers that Stephanie's younger sister Astrid is his mate. But how can that be? Wasn't Stephanie supposed to be his mate? And would his pack even accept Astrid as his mate and Luna-many have always blamed Astrid for Stephanie's death, because Stephanie died trying to save Astrid.

For her part, Astrid has lived in the shadow of her beautiful older sister for years. She knows very well that pack members and her parents wish that it was Astrid that died that day instead of Stephanie. Astrid had looked forward to the day that she would meet her mate and finally feel important to someone.

Discovering that her mate is Kael is Astrid's worst nightmare, especially when Kael reacts poorly to the discovery. Astrid decides that she is unwilling to live in Stephanie's shadow any longer. She will not spend the rest of her life with a mate who wishes she was someone else. She rejects Kael, who all too quickly accepts the rejection.

Soon afterwards, horrifying truths come out and Kael immediately regrets letting Astrid go. He sets out to get Astrid back and right the wrongs that have been done. But is it too late? Will Astrid find love with Kael, or with someone else?

As Dr. Hyder speeds towards Black Moon, my heart is racing. I frantically try calling and texting Astrid, but I am unable to reach her. I know that she is strong, but I have never seen her fight. Plus, until she marks her chosen mate (hopefully me), she will remain a valuable target.


In between calls and texts to Astrid, I pray that Brady has the attack under control, and that Brady has taken all reasonable steps to protect her.


No, I take that back. I pray that Brady has taken ALL steps to protect her. F&&k what is reasonable. This is Astrid that we are talking about. I will not survive losing her. She has come to mean way too much to me. I love her with all of my heart and my soul; I have never been so sure of anything in my life.
