Destiny calls. One shifter answers...
Seventeen-year-old Lluava is a shapeshifter who struggles to control the powerful beast lurking beneath her skin. She longs for more than life on a farm and believes she is meant for something bigger, but as a woman, she will never have that opportunity.
Her life suddenly changes as invaders approach the shores of her home. An army must be raised. Is this her chance? Will she prove to be the warrior she knows she is in her heart?
Before Lluava can fight the enemy, she must confront the ruling humans who despise her people and treat them as inferiors. Even worse, she is forced to train with the human heir to the throne. To prove herself battle-ready, she must learn to work with the young prince. It is the only chance—for her and for both their races.
