Summary

A Heart of Winter Moon is an erotic werewolf shifter romance that follows Sarah Vance, a pragmatic art restorer numbed by grief, who inherits a dilapidated estate, Silverwood, on the remote coast of Maine. She discovers the property is bound by an ancient covenant between her ancestors, the Thornes, and the Blackwater Pack of werewolves. The pack's formidable and reclusive Alpha, Alex Thorne, views Sarah as a threat to their fragile secrecy and the delicate balance of their world. Despite his hostility, a fierce, primal attraction ignites between them. As Sarah uncovers the secrets of her legacy—a magical torc, her late aunt's journals, and her own growing connection to the sentient land—she becomes enmeshed in a war for Silverwood's survival. She must navigate internal pack politics, a violent challenge to Alex's leadership from the rebel wolf Kael, and an external threat from a ruthless corporation, OmniCore, seeking to exploit the land. The relationship between Sarah and Alex deepens from a clash of wills into a profound mate-bond, a partnership that strengthens both the pack and the covenant. The conflict escalates when Sarah's unique bond with the land reveals its true purpose: she is the destined guardian for a new kind of heir.
