Blazing the Trail

It’s almost Valentine’s Day, and Zoe Sorensson’s love life is heating up. Cute, loyal, and understanding, wolf shifter Derek is pretty much the perfect guy. He likes Zoe, and he knows what it’s like to have to keep a secret. Yet, Zoe can’t help but wish it was rebel rocker Jared asking her to the Valentine’s dance instead. But Jared’s too busy playing hot and cold with her heart, calling Zoe his dragon girl one minute and then taking special interest in her best friend the next.

Zoe is just about ready to breathe fire, especially once she uncovers a new threat that targets her friends. Although Zoe thought the Mages were defeated, they’re back and have invoked an old spell to give them new power—they plan to eliminate all shape shifters on the night of the big dance. Now, Zoe must lead an alliance of young shifters to battle the Mages and figure out exactly what—and who—she wants, before it all goes up in smoke…
