No Waif Out

Some legends refuse to stay buried.

Merritt Vale never asked to be anyone's hero. As a shapeshifter, baker, and Guardian of Little Avalon, she's already balancing more than most. When a new Fury emerges with magic that echoes an old enemy, Merritt is called into action once again.

The rising darkness isn't just a threat to the city—it's a direct line to Merritt's hidden past.

An ancient amulet, a madwoman's journal, and whispers of a forgotten bloodline all lead her toward a truth she might not be ready to face.

To protect the people she loves, Merritt must confront secrets buried deep in Avalon's history. She'll need to fight not only monsters in the shadows but also doubts within her own heart.

Will she discover the strength to rewrite her legacy?

Or will the past devour everything she's built?
