Elara Vale is the only daughter of the feared Northern Alpha King—but to marry for love, she hid her name and gave her wolf to her husband, Damon, on their wedding night. With her wolf, he rose to Alpha. A year later, on a blood-moon night, Elara goes into labor and finds Damon cradling his pregnant mistress. He denies she's his wife, the crowd brands her a homewrecker, and she's dragged into a delivery room to be poisoned. With her last strength, she crushes the moonstone her father gave her—and the Alpha King rides out under the blood moon to tear the hospital apart.
Her father saves her, but her newborn daughter has no wolf. Unless Elara takes her own wolf back from Damon before the next blood moon, the baby won't survive the night. Thirty days. No more running. Elara walks into her ex-husband's pack, slaps his mistress, drags him before the Moon Temple, and learns their “chance” meeting was a setup from the start. Under the blood moon, she rejects him as her mate, reclaims her wolf, and wakes her daughter—while the silent Snowridge prince who once let her go is still waiting for her to choose.
