A new town. A dangerous secret. And a teenager who refuses to back down.

Sixteen-year-old Lucas Neville didn’t choose Gabriel Mills—but it’s where his family landed after a close call proves the city is no place for shifters to hide. Quiet, rural, and isolated, the town should have been safe.

It isn'''t.

Lucas is a panther shifter trying to live as human in a high school where bullies rule, loyalties are tested, and power plays lurk just beneath the surface. When he crosses the wrong people and protects someone who can’t protect himself, Lucas becomes a target—one that won’t be ignored.

As tensions rise between humans, shifters, and a shadowy biker gang with dangerous ties, Lucas must learn how to survive without revealing what he truly is. But staying hidden comes at a cost—and some lines, once crossed, can’t be uncrossed.

Set in the Texas Ranch Wolf Pack universe, this gripping spin-off launches a new generation of shifters into a fight for belonging, loyalty, and control.

Perfect for readers who enjoy clean paranormal fiction, teen shifters, found family, and high-stakes small-town drama.
