Sapphic werewolf cowgirls hunt for cursed treasure and learn to free their inner monsters in this YA paranormal romance.
Ingrid Connor longs to explore the world outside her isolated desert home, but a bloodthirsty monster lurks beneath her skin. Vicious werewolves like her deserve death at the hands of those seeking to eliminate them. Luckily, Ingrid's got her aunt, who keeps Ingrid safe from wolf hunters, and humanity safe from Ingrid.
Her tiny world shatters when bounty hunter and treasure-seeker Alice stumbles across her homestead. A fellow werewolf who's mastered the beast within, Alice believes Ingrid to be unfairly imprisoned, and kidnaps her with the intention of teaching her to tame her killer instincts. A righteously indignant Ingrid convinces Alice to take her home--but when they arrive, they find a wrecked, empty house, and a pool of her aunt's blood.
Ingrid's got no choice but to team up with Alice to find her aunt--even if her feelings for the girl grow more complicated by the moment, and Aunt Cora's disappearance might be linked to a lost treasure that destroys all those who seek it. To survive what's ahead, Ingrid will have to uncover--and embrace--what it truly means to be monstrous.
