The Sanctuary series takes place in New Eden, a hidden community of wolf shifters living without electricity or modern technology deep in the Colorado Sawatch Mountains. River, a young woman from the community, rescues Jonathan McKnight, a military veteran who lost his hand and twin brother in Afghanistan, when he accidentally wanders into their territory.

The series starts with River’s Recruit (2012) and follows the pair through political intrigue, an arranged marriage River wants no part of, and a prophecy that suggests they are fated to change the community forever. Later books shift focus to other characters, including Gabriel’s Gift (2015) and Rose’s Rebel (2016), expanding the world beyond River and Jonathan’s story. Six books were published between 2012 and 2016.
