Leader of the Pack

10 Things I Hate About You meets Wednesday in this rom-com murder mystery starring a werewolf girl with a tongue as sharp as her claws, and the diviner boy destined to prove her innocence.

Exceedingly type A, Skye Wolverton is fast approaching graduation at Raven’s Head School for the Magically Gifted, having collected every accolade imaginable—in addition to being leader of the school’s werewolf pack. There’s zero room on her résumé for romance, but she’s not missing out. Right?

Diviner Alistair Elton-Bentley doesn’t need to use his ability to see into the future to determine his post-graduation plans: a lonely, heartbroken summer aboard the family yacht on the French Riviera. But that changes when a fellow lovesick student begs Alistair to go out with Skye so that Skye’s younger sister is allowed to date. A little fake dating never hurt anyone, so why not?

Just as Alistair’s rich-boy charm begins to overcome Skye’s stubborn streak and a true connection starts to form, a beloved teacher winds up dead. The prime suspects: the werewolves. Skye’s walls go up immediately, but Alistair isn’t about to let her play lone wolf. They’re going to get to the bottom of this mystery together—and maybe dig up real feelings along the way.
