Under A Wild Wolf Moon

For centuries, a clan of Shapeshifters, the Clann Mac Tire (Irish Gaelic for “children of the wolf” has co-existed with wolves, both in Ireland and finally in America. However, the lure of the modern world and encroachment of man into wolf habitat are threatening the existence of both the Clann and the wolf packs in and around Destiny, Montana. There is a prophecy that in the Clann’s darkest hour, there will come an Alpha pair unlike any other, and together they will thwart the evil within and revive The Clann. It’s time the Clann Council chooses a new alpha pair to lead them, but are there any left in the Clann capable of saving it and the wolf packs? Will they stay and accept their destiny? Twenty-five year old wolf researcher, Siobhan Doyle, lost her parents and her memory thirteen years ago. Unable to find any family for Siobhan, an eccentric recluse, Maeve Doyle, adopted and raised Siobhan until five years ago, when Siobhan had to leave Montana for her own safety. Sheriff Seamas McMahon and Maeve have summoned Siobhan home, promising to reveal all the secrets of her past. What Siobhan doesn’t know is that Maeve, former Clann druid priestess, is her maternal grandmother and Seamas, another Clann member, her paternal grandfather. Siobhan’s parents were murdered the night Siobhan had her memories magically, if temporarily, erased in order to keep her survival and subsequent whereabouts secret. Now that the Clann Council knows of her existence, they want Siobhan to follow in her grandmother’s steps as Clann priestess and become the female half of the alpha pair, but hurt by an affair with her previous project lead, Siobhan has no desire to become part of any pair, least of all her new supervisor. Thirty-year old Faelan Conroy, a renowned wolf researcher and Siobhan’s new project lead, is returning to Destiny for reasons of his own. His father, Eamon Conroy, the current alpha male, has suffered a massive stroke, leaving the family ranching business and the Clann’s affairs in disarray. Faelan left Destiny the night of Siobhan’s parents’ murders believing he saw Eamon standing over the barely-living body of Siobhan. Faelan rescued Siobhan by quickly getting her to Seamas and consequently to Maeve for healing. Now Faelan is the magical “trigger” for the return of Siobhan’s memory, another reason he must return to Destiny. The Clann Council wants a Conroy, Faelan, his younger brother, Tristan, or Quinn, their cousin and son of Eamon’s acquisitive younger brother, Kieran, as the alpha male to succeed Eamon. Faelan is ambiguous about becoming alpha and has no intention of settling down any time soon, but is determined to do what is necessary to repair the family business…and find out the truth about Eamon’s involvement in Siobhan’s parents’ deaths and attempted murder of Siobhan. With the help of Faelan, Siobhan must first regain her memory of the night of her parents’ murders, which holds the secret of the evil in their midst. The cold winter of Montana cannot stifle the growing heat between them as they struggle to protect a vanishing species and a disappearing way of life Under the Wild Wolf Moon.
