"Ivy Blackwood, a scorned bastard daughter, is chosen as the virgin sacrifice to the forest’s terrifying “man-eating beast”. Fleeing for her life, she encounters Kane—a brooding, reclusive stranger plagued by a 500-year-old curse.
They strike a marriage of convenience: Ivy stays by his side to soothe his torment, and Kane grants her safety and a new home. Brought to the grand werewolf estate, she faces scorn, betrayal, and deadly plots from the power-hungry Red, who covets the Alpha throne.
As hidden truths unravel, Ivy discovers Kane is the legendary thousand-year Wolf King, and the real monster behind the sacrifices has hidden in plain sight. From a doomed sacrifice to the Alpha’s fated Luna, true love becomes the only key to breaking the ancient curse."
