Moon Marked

Secrets are my specialty. I'm Mai Fairchild - fox shifter, sister's keeper, and bane of the local werewolf pack. In a world where different is dangerous, my sister and I must pretend to be human at all costs. Too bad I just lost the job that lets me live under the radar while putting food on my sister's plate. Enter an enticing werewolf who offers enough cash to upgrade our diets from ramen noodles to salami if I join him on a magical hunt. But can I afford to accept the opportunity when the risk of working closely with every fox shifter's sworn enemy is so great?

The only thing worse than hiding from werewolves is living among them. No wonder I kept some secrets, broke a few rules...and implicated my werewolf protector in the process. Oops. To make matters worse, the stealer of my dead mother's magic has set his sights on my sister a second time. As the child's powers fade, so does her vitality until death looms on the horizon. Can I learn to harness the power of the pack - - and squash my individuality - - before my sister's life is entirely sucked away from her? And, with my recent blunders causing upheaval in the werewolf world, will my former protector be willing to help us if I choose to ask?

A fox in wolf's clothing. He said, "Come on. Move in with the pack. It'll all be perfect." I said, "No. They're still healing. I'm a fox shifter, the reason they fell apart in the first place. I won't mess this up for you." Yeah, so...I moved in any way. And, sure enough, clan bonds started breaking, fights erupted, Gunner's entire role as pack leader was cast into doubt. Now I'm struggling to posture like a wolf while protecting the stray kitsune who showed up on our doorstep. Gunner's stuck choosing between our relationship and his role as pack leader. And I've only got one thing left to say about the matter: "I told you so." This final installment in the Moon Marked trilogy follows Wolf's Bane and Shadow Wolf.
