Kaala was born with Outsiders blood. She watched her siblings die and her mother exiled by the leaderwolf, all because
of the blood and the rules broken by it.

Yet Kaala's life is spared when the Greatwolves step in for unknown reasons. Though her life was spared, Kaala is on a
difficult path. Ruuqo, the leader of her pack, does everything possible to keep her from becoming pack, and there's
something pulling her to the humans that she just doesn't understand.

With the help of a mysterious wolf, a raven, and two of her wolf friends, Kaala learns more about her destiny and the
humans. But as war looms on the horizon, Kaala learns that she's not the only wolf keeping secrets, and without the help
of those more powerful than her, everyone in the valley may face dire consequences.

PROMISE OF THE WOLVES is an action-packed book, full of surprises and turns. Though it dragged on for a bit at
first, I quickly fell in love with Kaala and the life of the wolves. I found myself struggling to put the book down because I
wanted so badly to find out the fate of Kaala and her pack, along with the humans.

So whether you're a wolf lover or not, I'd recommend picking up this book. You definitely won't regret it.
