Blurb:

Unbeknownst to humans, the werewolves of the world live in tight knit gangs, or “dens”, for protection from outsiders – and each other. Every major metropolis has one; to belong to a den is to have a family for eternity. Shaye Cassidy, an unhoused human woman scraping by on the streets of Los Angeles, hasn’t had anything close to a family in over ten years. Shaye left her home under a cloud to chase the dream of a new start, a dream that quickly turned into a nightmare; a nightmare that grows even more twisted when Shaye witnesses a werewolf killing a fellow unhoused man.

Andy Vasquez is a top member of Sangre Sagrada, second only to the den leader herself. When she tasks him with tracking down a werewolf gone rogue, someone who is killing humans for sport and risking the exposure of their world, Andy dedicates all his resources to the task. He couldn’t have predicted that the key to uncovering the identity of the rogue wolf would be a human woman, any more than he could have predicted that he would fall in love with her.

Now, Andy must protect Shaye not just from the rogue wolf, but also from those within his den who wish she would disappear. Shaye has her own secrets, however, and in the city of angels, everyone has a devilish side.

EXCERPT:

Shaye was dead. I had killed her.

I threw myself into the driver’s seat, slamming my finger on the ignition button and tossing the gear shift into reverse. Peeling out of the driveway, I shouted at the car’s computer to call Caleb’s cell phone. 

There was no answer.

Battering the steering wheel with my fist, I gave a wordless shout of frustration that reverberated off the car’s interior and back to me. I slammed my foot onto the gas pedal, careening down from the hills and into the city as fast as I could. 

This was my fault. All my fault. It was good that Emilia had excommunicated me. I deserved it. I didn’t deserve a family, a home, I didn’t deserve any of it. I couldn’t even do one thing right, couldn’t save my den when it mattered…. couldn’t save one person who mattered…

I called Caleb’s phone again. Still no answer. I took a corner hard and popped the curb, but didn’t slow down or stop, just continued flying down the road. I couldn’t accept that I was too late. I couldn’t accept the totality of my failure. My mind wouldn’t allow it. 

Like a broken record, I ordered the computer to call Caleb’s phone again. The phone rang, and rang, and rang and then–

“Yeah?” said Caleb, the word slightly muffled through my car’s speakers. 

“Caleb!” I shouted his name, leaning forward in the driver’s seat as my hands strangled the steering wheel. “Caleb, you need to get out of there, both you and Shaye, you need–!”

“Andy, Andy, Andy!” responded Caleb, volume growing with every repetition of my name until I fell silent. “Relax! We’re okay. It’s okay. The house is secure.”

I shook my head, my foot pressing down harder on the gas pedal as I flew through a yellow light. “It’s not! Lazlo–”

“Found out where we are?” Caleb gave a loud harumph. “No kidding.”

“You…” I looked down at the speakers from which Caleb’s too-calm voice was emanating, narrowing my wide eyes. “Wait, you know?”

There was a long, beleaguered sigh. “Trust me, Andy – the house is secure. Get back here and we’ll figure out our next move.”
