About this audiobook

Some walls are not built to keep monsters out. They are built to keep a debt hidden. Wren Thornwood Hale has spent three years having the same vision: a wall of black stone, cracking, and something ancient and patient pressing against it from the other side. Her father calls it exhaustion. The pack calls it an embarrassment. Wren knows better. She just has no one who will believe her, until a half dead stranger is found collapsed on the northern border, alive against every law her pack has ever known, and marked with a symbol out of a book her father took away from her before she finished reading it. His name is Caleb. He is the first Ashwalker to survive crossing Thornwood's seal in three generations, and he did not come to stay. He came to warn a pack that has forgotten it owes anyone anything, that the wall protecting them was never free, and that the price stopped being paid three generations ago without anyone noticing exactly what that silence would eventually cost. Assigned to nurse him back to health, chained in her own healer's cabin, Wren finds herself drawn into a truth her pack has spent generations burying: a founding bargain, a bloodline debt, and an ancestor erased from the record mid sentence. As the wall begins to fail in earnest and her own visions grow too vivid to survive much longer, Wren and Caleb uncover the only path left to save both their peoples, a bond that must be offered freely, completely, and without reservation, by two people from opposite sides of a war neither of them started. But offering a bond is not the same as surviving it. And the thing waiting patiently on the other side of that wall has spent three generations learning exactly how to wait for someone foolish enough, or in love enough, to finally try. Perfect for readers who love forbidden mate romance, slow burn enemies to allies to lovers, rival pack tension, and a fantasy world with real mythology to uncover alongside the romance.
