DYING WAS THE EASY PART. STAYING ALIVE IN THE PAST? THAT’S WHERE THINGS GET COMPLICATED.
Ren Rousseau thought being the only werewolf who couldn’t shift was her biggest problem. Turns out, dying at the hands of the man she loved was worse.
But death wasn’t the end. It was the beginning.
Now thrown back two years before her murder, Ren has one goal: figure out why she died… before it happens again.
It should’ve been simple. Keep her distance. Watch from the shadows. Gather the truth. But the past has a pulse, and it’s racing faster than she remembers.
Her ex—the vampire heir who stole her heart—is begging for forgiveness, completely unaware he’s the one who killed her in the future. Her best friend is the only person who knows her secret. And her bodyguard—the fiercely loyal, maddeningly protective wolf who’s been by her side since childhood—is suddenly looking at her like she’s more than just a mission.
The closer Ren gets to the truth, the more tangled her heart becomes. Because the line between duty and desire is blurring, and she doesn’t know who she’ll be when it finally snaps.
Things are messier this time around. Because there’s a mark on her shoulder blooming like black fire, and whispers of a Demon Child whose existence could unravel the world. A child everyone’s hunting. Just like they did in the past. Before, Ren never paid attention to Supernatural politics.
But this time, she’s paying attention.
Time doesn’t heal all wounds. But maybe it gives you the chance to stab first.
