Balance of Light and Shadow

After escaping the brutalities of her pack, a rogue she-wolf trains relentlessly in the human world, living among humans who know nothing of werewolves. When she returns to protect the innocents of the Blood Moon pack during a royal raid, she crosses paths with a wolf claiming to be the Alpha King, Conrad, who declares the pack under investigation and arrests Alpha Blake and his family.

Conrad is struck by her fighting skill and demands her name, but when the wind carries her scent to him, he recognizes her as his Mate. She refuses the bond and flees, evading his hunters for days before slipping back into her human life as a vet, hiding her secret from her roommates Kimberly, Michelle, and Willow.

Yet the past follows her: at a wine bar, a hunter from the Alpha King's pack approaches and greets her as Eve, saying the King wants to see her. She has no intention of returning to a world she barely escaped, and she will not be anyone's prisoner again.
