About Sangre Cove

 

Maria found out she was different at an early age. Her father knew that smack dab in the middle of the Bible belt, her abilities would be, at best, misunderstood. So, he did his best to keep her safe. But, now her family has splintered and her heritage is about to come back to bite her—literally.

 

After their father’s murder, Maria and her sister drift apart. Without her sister, Maria has to navigate high school romance on her own—with the All-American football player, Teo, and reserved but strangely familiar Joaquin. When Teo’s reckless need to possess Maria unhinges him and Joaquin rescues her from his attack, she gets a glimpse of something otherworldly—both boys are lycan.

 

Apache Teo is a bloodthirsty werewolf and he needs Maria. With her, he wouldn’t have to rely on biting friends to produce a cursed lycan known as a wererat, a hideously deformed werewolf. She could help him build an army.

 

Joaquin’s family are Tonkawa—people of the wolf. She knows her abilities come from the Great Spirit with a connection to water, wind, earth, and healing, but she didn’t realize she was Tonkawa. As she becomes closer to Joaquin’s family, she finds she is an important piece. With an alpha controlled pack and an eagle as protector, she would be the last member of the tribe—she’s the healer or medicine women.

 

Maria’s mother, who deals with her grief by clutching a wine bottle, finally loses her grip.  Her suicide attempt brings the sisters full circle. Together, they become fully aware of their abilities. And learn how to put them into use.
