The girl bitten by a wolf and marked for life.

A boy, shrouded in secrecy, who watches over her.

The one man who can save her from her dark curse...or doom her to it.

When Liesel's mother died, Liesel felt as though the world had ended. To make matters worse, her father finds work in a village deep in a sunless forest. Determined to escape, Liesel tries to flee back to her grandparents, but before she can escape, she's bitten by a wolf, and unbeknownst to her, marked for a terrifying destiny.

Just when she's ready to despair, however, Liesel is befriended by a mysterious boy in the woods, her only beam of light in the dark wood. Before long, she finds herself drawn to Kurt, an affection that brings her closer to the darkness and the light than she's ever been before.

Unfortunately, the wolf's bite only grows stronger with time, and eventually, Liesel finds herself ensnared, albeit unwillingly, by the boy she loved. Faced with the knowledge that her decision will affect an entire village, she must decide whether to accept her fate for the sake of those she loves, or fight for the freedom to choose her own way.

Can Liesel and Kurt find a happy ending? Or are they doomed to the fates their ancestors chose before them?
