The Wolf Queen by Lauren Palphreyman is a fantasy romance set in a world where the human Southlands and the werewolf ruled Northlands stand on the brink of war, and Princess Aurora’s choices could tip the balance. After years of being treated as a political pawn, Aurora’s life is upended when her path once again collides with the powerful alpha wolves whose rivalries, secrets, and fragile alliances have already reshaped her fate in earlier books. Now caught between duty to her kingdom, the pull of the wild northern lands she’s come to know, and a tangled web of bonds and forbidden feelings, Aurora must decide what kind of queen she wants to be and which monsters, human or wolf, she will stand against without knowing who will survive the coming conflict.
