About this ebook

Secrets are my specialty.

I’m Mai Fairchild --- fox shifter, sister’s keeper, and bane of the local werewolf pack. In a world where different is dangerous, my sister and I must pretend to be human at all costs. Too bad I just lost the job that lets me live under the radar while putting food on my sister's plate.

Enter an enticing werewolf who offers enough cash to upgrade our diets from ramen noodles to salami if I join him on a magical hunt. But can I afford to accept the opportunity when the risk of working closely with every fox shifter's sworn enemy is so great?

Ratings and reviews

And while I understand why Mai acts the way she does, it does not endear her to me. If she truly cared about those around her, she would realize that losing her would impact them deeply - especially her sister. Aside from Mai, the rest of the book was pleasing and well written. I am especially partial to the Japanese aspects and proverbs. Sadly, I won't be finishing the series. The cost is too high for a character that I find displeasing.

I really enjoyed Mia and Gunner’s tale. At a young age Mia had to take responsibility for her younger sister Kira. It’s been challenging trying to raise Kira while trying to find out more about her species. Mia is an admirable individual yet I felt she should have been more organized. I’d go into more detail with that but I don’t want to spoil anything. I admittedly wasn’t a huge fan of her little sister. I couldn’t believe she did some of things she did. I loved Gunner. I can see him becoming Mia’s rock. I can’t wait to find out how the rest of their story is going to go. (4.5⭐️)

Kira has been responsible for her sister since their parent's death. She’ll do anything necessary to keep Social Services from taking her sister, including fighting in the arena but when that falls apart there is only one choice left; working for the werewolf Alpha. Right now he thinks she is a wolf shifter too, but if he finds out the truth there is only one punishment – death! This is a good series starter. There is danger and plenty of paranormal action with hints of a possible romance.
