Why these tropes fit
Elena Michaels is a werewolf striving to live a normal human life with her boyfriend, concealing her nature as she slips away at night to run and hunt. Her wild strength and appetites constantly pull her back toward her true self, and she longs for a conventional family even as she tells herself this is what she wants. When ruthless mutts threaten to expose the Pack—the found family she loves and resents—Elena is called back into a fight that tests whether she is the wild woman or the wistful would-be human.
