In the Ashwood pack, love binds, prophecy bleeds, and peace is never free.
Abby found sanctuary in the hidden wolf pack of Ashwood - but that doesn't mean she and her sons are safe.
Bound to the pack's rising leader, Abby can no longer stand apart from pack law, ritual, or the violence buried beneath their mercy. Her youngest son carries a prophecy the wolves both revere and fear, and as winter closes in, so do threats that can no longer be ignored.
With old enemies stirring and the pack's fragile peace fracturing, Abby and her family are forced to navigate ancient customs, political betrayal, and the cost of loving fiercely in a world where power is inherited through blood - and paid for in sacrifice.
Meanwhile, her human friend Diana finds herself drawn to Mara, the stoic wolf assigned to protect her from Abby's ex-husband. Still at large, still hunting, and already proven capable of murder, he remains a threat that neither distance nor time has diminished. As the pack's leaders face the consequences of a mercy granted years ago, prophecy warns that there will be a great loss before the snow melts.
Slow-burning and emotionally rich, Blood & Betrayal deepens the Golden Wolf series' exploration of motherhood, desire, and moral ambiguity. With its queer-inclusive cast and layered examination of family, loyalty, and power, it asks what survival demands - and what kind of wolf you're willing to become.
Perfect for readers of Alix E. Harrow, Ava Reid, and Patricia Briggs, and for fans of romantasy with bite.
Tropes include: established couples, slow-burn sapphic romance, pack politics, prophecy, fierce motherhood, morally complex antagonists, found family, power awakening, queer-inclusive relationships, and shifters.
