Publisher Description
A wolf pack divided. A heart torn in two. How will Calla ever choose?
The first book in the internationally bestselling supernatural romance series by New York Times bestselling author Andrea Robertson!
“A glittering, dark gem.” —Cynthia Leitich Smith, New York Times bestselling author of Eternal
Calla Tor is the alpha female of a shape-shifting wolf pack. She is destined to marry Ren Laroche, the pack’s alpha male. Together, they would rule their pack, guarding sacred sites for the Keepers. But when Calla saves a beautiful human boy who captures her heart, she begins to question everything she’s ever known about her world—her fate, her existence, and the orders the Keepers have asked her to follow. With her wolf pack divided, Calla knows she will have to make a choice. But will she follow her heart if it means losing everything, including her own life?
In this romantasy series opener, some choices are worth more than fate.
***Note: This book was formerly released under the author name Andrea Cremer.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Cremer's debut brings mystery and passion to a journey of self-determination. Calla was raised chaste and pure, destined to unite with high school heartbreaker Ren on their 18th birthday and become the alphas of a shape-shifting wolf pack. She has never questioned the authority the powerful Keepers hold over her kind until she encounters a human hiker and breaks the rules to save his life. Shay was almost convinced the wolf-girl who rescued him was a dream until he meets her at his new school. Pursuing his attraction to Calla, Shay also wants to know what the Keepers are protecting and why he seems to be linked to a prophecy. Drawn to both Ren and Shay, Calla is torn: fulfill the role she was born to and deny herself freedom of choice, or choose her own path and abandon everything and everyone she knows? Good and evil are simply portrayed as Calla sheds her na vet and learns to see past her expectations. Cremer creates a sense of urgency as the pace accelerates, though the well-constructed plot carries readers along to a cliffhanger. Ages 14 up.
Customer Reviews
Great book
Shay and calla are the perfect couple shay makes the book in interesting and so does everybody else. This book is one of my favorites
Good book, horrible character
This book is amazing, I love most of it! The only think that I absolutely hate, and I mean HATE about it is Shay. Shay is probably the only book character I've ever disliked, and he ruins the book so much, I've been tempted to return it before I've finished it. Yeah, I'll recommend this book, but only by a little because of that one awful character.
