The Forging of the Pack — Kristin Stecklein

Joan has officially moved to Valeria and become Champion and now she has to figure out exactly what that entails. It turns out she has a lot to do beyond just learning how to manage her new job, which is plenty. She may be from the Flip Side, but she's determined to make this place her home, even if that does mean dealing with an unlikable governess, hard-headed pre-teen girls, a royal anniversary, and strained friendships while she has her wedding to plan. There's a lot to understand and problems are arising on both sides of the gate. Luckily she has good friends, old and new, to help her navigate the intricacies and headaches of a new world, and Martin to be her unconditional support no matter what. She'll need them all because among the issues is a threat to break apart what family she has, and while the Wolf may have accomplished some great things, she's going to need a pack behind her to face these challenges...
