This angsty, forbidden-love shifter romance combines fated mates, found family, and a slow-burn curse-breaking plot with the atmospheric tension of an autumn vigil.

Dakwita Timberlake is the last red wolf shifter alpha on earth. She carries an ancient curse in her blood that is slowly killing her siblings—Gareth, Ayasta, and Siqui—and threatening to erase her species forever. Raised by a Cherokee elder who recognized the dying bloodline, she has spent her life negotiating survival, burying her heart, and carrying the weight of extinction on her shoulders. She has no mate, no second, and no one to share the burden.

Then Declan Foreman returns to the Qualla Boundary. Gadugi's estranged grandson. A photographer who abandoned the rez years ago and never looked back. He's a ghost from the past, a reminder of everything Gadugi lost.

But when Dakwita meets him at Raven's Fork Crossing, her wolf stirs with a hunger she cannot explain—and a forbidden attraction she cannot afford. As November mist blankets the Smokies and the curse tightens its grip, Dakwita must decide: trust the man who ran from his own blood, or watch her pack die alone.

But Declan carries secrets of his own—a failed relationship, a lifetime of running, and a desperate need to earn forgiveness he doesn't believe he deserves. When their desire ignites in the firelit den, the curse strikes back with devastating force. Siqui collapses. The pack fractures. And Dakwita must face the truth: the key to breaking the curse lies in her own blood—and in the vow she must make to the man she cannot live without.

Will she sacrifice everything to save her kind?

Or will the last red wolves fade into extinction?
