Chance

"Three things cannot be long hidden - the sun, the moon and the truth."

Chance Nightshade is the daughter of the most fearsome Alpha known to the shadow-world. Dominance burns in her veins like witch-fire, but there are those who seek to douse the flames of her autonomy. She has but one guard against their subterfuge: an impossible, inexplicable magic, the ability to tell truth from lies.

When a prophet comes before the Nightshades with tidings of war - werewolves vs. vampires - the world as Chance knows it is thrown into chaos. Bitter, ancient hatreds consume. Adults scheme. Melbourne is caught in the headlock of an immortal war.

Through it all, Chance finds her heart divided: she cannot help but come to love the enemy. In the midst of devastation and a web of truth and lies, she must decide whether to stand by old alliances or forge new ones. Who deserves her obedience? Who is the real enemy, and what are they after?

What makes someone a true beast?
