Who could love a monster?

Lena asks herself this question after a freak encounter with a wolf leaves her bitten and transformed. It took no time once the symptoms hit for her to realize she was a danger. A killer.

So, ignoring her shattered heart, she leaves.
 
Leaves Los Angeles. Leaves Ice Hockey.

Leaves him, the one who taught her what it meant to love. Eason.
 
For the next five years, Lena did all she could to forget by starting a new life for herself in a little rural town. But, just as the moon rises, the past finds a way back. Eason, a star ice hockey player and owner of her heart, wants her back. And ushered with him comes an old crime tying them both together.
 
Lena knows she should push him away, it’s the only way to keep him safe.
 
Yet, through the turmoil of it all Lena can’t help but think that maybe ... being a monster isn’t that bad after all.

Moonlit Goals: A Love Restored

I had spent the past five years running, so much so that I had become extremely good at it. I’d spent most of the night trying to blend into the crowd, but for some reason, the moment I saw him dancing with Daisy, I couldn’t help but drift toward him.


I didn’t know why I did that. I just did. I wanted him to notice me, to see me. Only me. But watching him dance with her in that sinful red dress pulled at every primal instinct within me. I regretted my actions soon enough. I’d only meant to hover, just close enough to ensure they weren’t falling in love. I failed to factor in the fact that Eason wasn’t the best of dancers.


Sprawled on the floor amidst the shattered crystal and spilled champagne, I found myself drowning in his gaze. His warm brown eyes were wide with surprise as we stared at each other for a moment too long.
