After living in Alaska with the Koto pack for her whole life, Skye had determined long ago that things will just never change. The Koto are stuck in the old ways of doing things, where she, and the rest of her pack members, must follow the rules that they see fit. One of those rules entails avoiding grocery stores, malls, and other places where humans frequent, leaving Skye naive to the ways of the human world-a world which she'd do anything to experience. One night, Skye finally gets her chance to see things change when her Alpha calls a pack meeting with news that he's establishing a new chapter of the Koto in New Jersey. Determined to explore the world and find her mate, she chooses to leave-but her best friend and the only guy she's ever had feelings for up until now wants to follow her. Skye is allowed to go to school for the first time in her life, but soon finds that making human friends and fitting into a world she knows little about is a lot harder than she thought it would be. She can't worry about school too much, though, because her Alpha has decided to add new pack members who may or may not have murdered their own Alpha."
