Raising monsters is harder than hunting them.
Reece O’Dell was a top-tier operative with Hunters, Inc., until she traded kill orders for kitchen duty in a mythborn commune. Five years later, she’s still trying to figure out how to be a mother to a changeling who keeps sneaking off to the fae realm and lighting things on fire — sometimes literally.
But peace was never going to last. Maelie’s powers are surging out of control, and the enemies who once hunted her haven’t gone away — they’ve just gotten smarter. And now, they’re coming for the whole commune.
As the threat of war looms and old instincts resurface, Reece must decide if she’s a protector, a leader, or a broken weapon in a fight that can’t be won.
One girl. One found family. A thousand ways for it all to fall apart.
