Midnight Room — Dawn Luedecke

Haunted by the murder of her parent's years ago, Alana Roseburg strives to disappear into the trees of Miranda's Forest, a place marred by a dark Legend. When she finds a lone wolf stalking her property, she can't help but be drawn to the animal, despite his dangerous aura. She soon discovers a secret no mortal could accept. The wolf is Devlin -- a man, a shape shifter, and Guardian of a woman known as the Windrose of the West. This Windrose controls and protects a magical gem that holds to powers of Mother Nature's elements. To her surprise, Devlin believes she is the Windrose of the West and his rightful mate. Soon she is taken to his home and drawn into a world she'd never imagined. But can her growing love for Devlin overcome the effects of the stone as they become too much for her to bear? To her disappointment, she discovers the town's most prominent citizen's have banded together to try to kill her in order to reach the stone, and now she has no other option but remain in the arms of her Guardian. Can she defeat the evil forces and accept her destiny, before it's too late?
