Happy Book Birthday, Jennifer!
Striker Gryphon has lost his position of honor among the Ram, and is now a hunted man. A traitor.
Zo, the object of his affection, was murdered by members of his former clan. To honor her memory, he journeys to the highly secretive Raven “Nest” to warn strangers of their impending demise—though it could cost him more than just his pride.
He doesn’t know that Zo is very much alive and in another part of the region assisting Nameless refugees over a mountain swarming with wild men known as “Clanless.”
As each struggle to make sense of what their lives have become, they fight and claw to reach the Allied Camp, their last hope in bringing peace to the region.
But the road back to one another is treacherous and uncertain. And freedom will come with a price.

Joshua
groaned and pushed up to rest on his elbows. “What happened? Where am I?” His
wiry chest was bare. The scar on his abdomen was still crusted over, but the
skin around the wound bragged a healthy peach hue. “Where are Gryphon and
Gabe?” He looked at Eva then over to Zo. “What is Eva doing here?”
Zo and Tess
didn’t bother answering any of his questions before wrapping him into a hug.
Tess openly wept, and Zo found herself jealous for the chance to express her
relief without falling apart.
She pressed
her forehead into Joshua’s and held it there as she looked into his eyes. “I
see you, Joshua.”
“Umm.”
Joshua grinned. “I see you too. Quite well, actually.”
Tess rolled
around in a fit of giggles.
“What am I
missing?” said Joshua.
Zo pulled
away and tapped the end of the boy’s nose with the tip of her finger. “Sorry.
It’s an old Wolf custom. Eyes are the windows to the soul. I was greeting your
inner light. Acknowledging your spirit.” Zo shook her head and smiled. “It has
been so long since I’ve been able to be a Wolf. I couldn’t help myself.”
OTHER BOOKS IN THE SERIES
Four clans have been at war for centuries: the Kodiak, the Raven, the Wolf and the Ram. Through brutal war tactics, the Ram have dominated the region, inflicting death and destruction on their neighbors.
Seventeen-year-old Zo is a Wolf and a Healer who volunteers to infiltrate the Ram as a spy on behalf of the allied clans. She offers herself as a Ram slave, joining the people who are called the “nameless.” Hers is a suicide mission – Zo’s despair after losing her parents in a Ram raid has left her seeking both revenge and an end to her own misery. But after her younger sister follows her into Rams Gate, Zo must find a way to survive her dangerous mission and keep her sister safe.
What she doesn’t expect to find is the friendship of a young Ram whose life she saves, the confusing feelings she develops for a Ram soldier, and an underground nameless insurrection. Zo learns that revenge, loyalty and love are more complicated than she ever imagined in the first installment of this two-book series.
With her degree in History and Secondary Education, Jennifer had every intention of teaching teens to love George Washington and appreciate the finer points of ancient battle stratagem. (Seriously, she’s obsessed with ancient warfare.) However, life had different plans in store when the writing began. As a proud member of Writers Cubed, and a co-founder of the Teen Author Boot Camp, she feels blessed to be able to fulfill both her ambition to work with teens as well as write Young Adult fiction.
Jennifer has three children who are experts at naming her characters, one loving, supportive husband, a dog with little-man syndrome, and three chickens (of whom she is secretly afraid).
