The Dark Kin, Shifters Book 1
Ellie Reed generally enjoyed being a journalist in the midwestern town in which she'd grown up. Living in the picturesque rural community, with its chatty and friendly neighbors, made for a setting where Ellie felt a genuine sense of both belonging and purpose for her young family. For a news reporter, one would think that knowing the lay of the land and most of the folks in the area would be pretty handy resources. And they might be...if she wasn't also a werewolf. Big secrets were hard to keep in a small town.

Being a widow, a full-time reporter and a werewolf were challenges in and of themselves, but none could compare to her toughest and most important duty; that of of raising twin boys who were rapildy approaching their own very first Change, as the children were destined to become Shifters as well. Thankfully, she wasn't entirely alone. Even in a close-knit lakeside community other Shifters could be found living quiety, secretively alongside the more mundane members of society. Friends, both Shifter and human, help Ellie shoulder the burden of walking in two worlds. But to her, the juggling act was worth it. This was where she wanted her boys to grow up, where the preternatural and everyday could coexist.

But no community, no matter how special or insular it may be, is ever immune from terror. There are other monsters that can even scare the things that go bump in the night. Ancient malevolences. True evil. And it will take efforts on the part of both her communities to defend the people and places they hold most dear, as well as sacrifice.

Ellie will do what she must to keep her children safe. They were her heart and her future. But did they have to pick right now to start taking an active interest in girls? Really??? The timing could not be worse.
