Darkness always comes before the dawn, and in this brave new world, there are monsters in the shadows.

The revelation that magic is real has sent the human world into chaos. Fear, anger and panic have ruled the day. In the wake of new laws popping up all over the country aimed to restrict the uses of magic and the movements of shifters, Peach is faced with more problems than she anticipated. Namely her old clan showing up with the evil of all evils, Paradigm, and a sexy biker bear shifter that comes to play hero, and pulls at her in a way her little Crow heart isn't ready to handle. She's already been claimed as a mate once, and she's less than interested in repeating the experience.

Cash left Ironwood Heights behind, but not the Lords of Khaos. Riding as the Pres of their Nomad chapter served him just fine. A life on the road, a new bed every night, and far outside of the shadow of his big brother, Lesleigh. Being called back to the mother chapter wasn't on his bingo card, but then neither was a grizzly shifter making the eight o'clock news. For Cash, the only bright side of being back in Vermont is the inky haired beauty that's his fated mate, even when she's got a knife to his throat.

With the looming changes coming all over the country regarding shifters, can Peach and Cash carve out a little bit of light in the darkest time and find their Happily Ever After? What's in store for shifter kind and magic in a world that has all but lost its spark?
