Sterling, a young werewolf cursed by a witch to live out his days as a wolf, lives through difficult times with his maiden, Rusalka, the Princess of Warrick. Her father, the king, needs a heir to his throne, and although at heart Sterling is human, she can not marry a wolf. Impatient with his daughter, the king orders a marriage to the governor of New Doran; however, the man is not the ideal suitor the king thought, and the betrothal traps the princess in a dangerous situation. Her only hope? The wolf and his quest to become human once more.
