Something wicked is shifting in Seattle. Karina Lang has enough on her mind dealing with college applications, her mother's ailing health, and busting her butt after school at the cafe she works at. Forget about boys. Who has the time? The last thing she needs in her busy schedule is to be mugged by a band of thugs. Her destiny is more important than she could ever imagine. Out of the shadows, a mysterious stranger emerges - her rescuer. Coincidence? Not for him. Devyn St. Cyr reveals a startling truth about Karina, and she must befriend him to gain the answers she needs. However, uncovering the secret of her heritage threatens more than just her worldview, but also her life. Regardless of her feelings for the dreamy, steamy Devyn, Karina finds herself on unsure footing with him and a hot target for every ambitious otherworldly creature. Falling in love won't keep her alive. As she struggles with her rare gift, Devyn supports her, protects her, and challenges her. But in order for Karina to survive, she must do what no other Kitsune in a century has accomplished: acquire nine tails.
