When her twin brother Jax makes enemies with the future alpha from a neighboring clan, she tries to stop him.

Determined to prove her worth, Violet trains with the best in the clan, but she's still considered a liability.

Meanwhile, retaining control over his wolf is vital if Patrick Cowen is going to keep his past a secret.

His combative wolf spirit won't go down without a fight and if Patrick fails, everything he cares for will be lost.
