Wolves are the new dragons! This sizzling, addictive romantasy will grip fans of Fourth Wing, When the Moon Hatched and Quicksilver. In a world where humans and direwolves forge mental bonds through brutal trials, only the worthy survive. Meryn Cooper despises the Bonded, but when her sister is kidnapped across enemy lines, she enlists in the army and is thrust into the deadly Bonding Trials. Bound to a feral wolf and targeted by rivals, she must endure months of training under Stark Therion, her ruthless instructor. Every ally hides danger – especially the crown prince whose attention could destroy her.
