Call of the Lycan (Secrets of the Sequoia) (Volume 3)

With Rachael's friend gone and her love lost, she doesn't quite know what to do with the pieces left behind. Her brother, Jackson, is determined to keep her at her side no matter the cost. Together they come up with the very compromise Holden swore he would take vengeance against: that Rachael becomes a lycan. But when she proposes the idea to the pack alpha, Aaron, he's surprisingly resistant. Then Holden shows up at her house with an assortment of new plans... all of them involving the death of his former alpha. Then Holden commits an unspeakable crime. Aaron and his pack scramble to defend themselves against their former ally. Rachael is torn between her old life and the promising new one lurking in the distance. She wants to become a lycan, but Aaron refuses to entertain the idea any longer and Holden has promised to kill her if she goes through with it. All of this culminates in a decades-awaited showdown between Aaron and his former charge, and it comes down to who Rachael places her loyalty in to: Holden, her first love, or Aaron, the alpha promising to keep her alive....
