Faryn Miller wants to build a new life in a small town. It's her last chance to figure out, of all the roles she's played in her thirty-some years, which one truly fits. Her aim at simplicity sounds like the perfect medicine until she meets Kai Allen, who's spent his life doing everything the hard way and never bending for anyone. Lucky for Kai, Faryn has no preconceived notions about what he's done and who he is, unlike the rest of town. When cryptic messages start sneaking their way into Faryn's apartment, then blatant threats, the two of them compile a long list of who could be stalking her. Unable to keep his frustration and rage hidden any longer, Kai explodes on everyone in his path, and Faryn can't help but wonder if the storm is closer than she thinks.

A fun, easy read for reluctant readers, families, and lovers of the paranormal...Just as Grace accepts Shady Woods as home, the tide in town begins to turn. Maybe pacifism is more of a compromise than the werewolves and vampires are okay with any longer. Maybe the dendrites and sirens should make some more concessions, so the others can live how they were meant to live. After all, that is the whole point of Shady.As the debate heats up about whether everyone should lock themselves up once a month so the wolves can hunt in town, Grace becomes more aware of how dangerous it all is. Her anxiety over Riah not coming home in one piece doesn''t go over well with Christian, and the hunting in town doesn''t go over well with her parents.When the little wooden box Ethan found holds more than they bargained for, and Grace''s parents start talking about moving back normal, she has to decide if she''s strong enough to deal with the realities of her new life. And if so, she must also be willing to fight for it.
