Haga Krisztina
Eighteen-year-old Willow has only one goal: survive her cruel, alcoholic foster father long enough to save enough money to rescue her four-year-old sister, Ellie. She has mastered the art of being invisible, hiding bruises beneath oversized clothes and keeping everyone at a distance. Books and drawing are her only escape.
Until Jace notices her.
Twenty-one-year-old Jace is wealthy, dangerous, and untouchable. He rules the school without even trying, but beneath the arrogant bad-boy exterior hides a secret no human should ever discover.
He is a werewolf, and the future Alpha of his pack.
When Jace’s sister defends Willow from a group of bullies, his world collides with hers. One look into Willow’s terrified blue eyes is enough to awaken something primal inside him. His wolf senses her fear, her pain, and the secrets she desperately tries to hide.
From that moment on, Jace cannot stay away.
But Willow has learned that trusting someone only gives them another way to hurt her. And the closer Jace gets, the more dangerous both their worlds become.
Vampires are closing in. Pack enemies are watching. And Willow’s past refuses to release its grip on her.
Jace has spent his entire life preparing to fight monsters.
But saving Willow will require something far harder than strength.
He must convince a broken girl that not every touch is meant to hurt, not every shadow hides a monster, and sometimes love can become the safest place of all.
