    The Queen of Werewolves Never Bows—She Hunts. 
    Being Queen of the British Werewolves means I’m not one to back down, especially when my friend Emory is facing trial on spurious charges. I stormed in, certain that my impassioned speech would help save the king of the dragon shifters – but darker forces prevailed. 
    The Domini, a sinister secret society, is pulling strings from the darkness. They manipulate rulers and topple thrones – but they’ve picked the wrong woman to mess with. I refuse to dance to their tune; the only thing I dance to is nineties’ pop music. 
    My mission is clear: dismantle the Domini and find a long-lost magical artefact that could restore our pack’s lost air powers. With a few powerful werewolves at my side, lured in by yummy cookies, cute unicorns and a commitment to gender equality, I’m building an unstoppable force. 
    Once I’ve got my allies and our ancient orb back, I won’t just be levelling the playing field – I’ll be obliterating it. And then it’ll be time for me to go hunting… 
    The Domini better start sleeping with one eye open. 
    Don't miss this werewolf shifter series if you like humour, heart and a strong heroine with a slow burn, loyal-beta fade-to-black romance.
