Publisher Description
Bound by destiny and a love that conquers all, with an oath sworn in blood…
Born of a unique race called Gaias, sixteen-year-old Taryn Malone has been blessed with extraordinary abilities, including one that was believed to have been eradicated centuries ago. This gift must remain hidden, or her entire species will perceive her as a threat. Upon her move to Williams, Arizona the woods on the mountainside become a refuge, the place where she can let her power flow free.
Skin Walker, Larkin Taylor has dreamt of the same girl since his twelfth birthday. While on a run in his wolf form, he catches the scent of something overwhelmingly powerful. When Larkin comes face-to-face with his dream girl, he is astounded to find that she is real. Desperate to be close to her, he joins her as the wolf where he witnesses first-hand the true depths of her gifts. Though he should destroy her for what she is, he finds himself struggling with a fierce need to protect her and the secrets she harbors. His own secrets are threatened when his former best friend bumps into Taryn at the local café.
Keiryn Falcon is instantly smitten with the new girl in town when sparks, quite literally, fly between the two as she brushes past him. The moment she is out of sight he takes to the skies in hawk form to follow. When he spies Larkin jumping down from her bedroom window, Keiryn sees nothing but red, knowing what kind of a monster lurks within the black dog. Bearing the physical scars that Larkin inflicted on him five years ago, Keiryn pledges to keep Taryn from falling victim to the same fate.
While her heart wages a constant war between the boy that is bound to protect her and the one she shares a deep, inexplicable connection with; who will she choose, and will that choice destroy them all?

Note to author
Too many spontaneous tears in too many characters. Not a credible response.
Very good story.
The author did a great job on character development. The story is clean and interesting. The main character is raised in the dark about her power. Those in the part who had some of her abilities were considered evil and a law was put in place to destroy them. She, however is kindhearted and good. But has to keep the secret from those who would fear her power.
Hooked!
I loved that this EBook wasn’t short, it was just the right amount of pages that gave the right info of the story as opposed to dragging on incessantly.
We’re introduced to Taryn, she’s never had the true childhood growing up, or the experience of being a teenager. Constantly being reminded to never reveal her secrets and etc.
Desperately wants to be part of the world that’s foreign to her, they make the move to Arizona from Kansas and her mom decides to loosen the reigns and give her a little bit of freedom.
There’s deep rooted history of friendships in this small town that she soon finds out.
There’s a love triangle, and Taryn seems to mend the broken history of friendship that separated Larkin & Keiryn with a common ground which is Taryn.
Despite feeling alone at times with being secluded before moving to Arizona, she finally feels a sense of belonging and forms her own family with some townsfolk.
This book has love and action. I loved Taryn’s character who has her own opinion, good at heart, and willing to protect her family and friends at whatever the cost.
