Highland Park Pack Series


The Highland Park Pack is a small, resilient wolf pack rebuilding their lives in the long shadow of the Boyce Park collapse. Fifteen years after the tragedy that scattered them, the survivors have carved out a fragile refuge in Highland Park — a place held together by loyalty, grief, and the quiet determination to protect one another. Their stories trace the slow work of healing: confronting old wounds, challenging the Council’s narrative, and reclaiming the truth of what happened the night their world fell apart. Each book follows a different wolf as they navigate trauma, identity, love, and the dangerous politics that still threaten the pack’s hard‑won peace. At its heart, the series is about chosen family, the weight of memory, and the courage it takes to build something whole from what remains.

“What was broken will be remade.”

The Weight of Small Bodies

Status: Revision Stage

The investigation meant to break Grayson Denman instead unearths the truth he’s carried alone for fifteen years: four lost pups, a dual‑sire bond, and a grief so deep it nearly destroys him. As the Council’s narrative collapses, Lincoln Stone becomes the only wolf who can reach him through aconite, silver, and the weight of memory. This book lays the emotional and political foundation for the entire Highland Park Pack series.

The Weight of Unburied Grief

Status: Developmental Draft

Dom Battle has spent years burying his rage beneath duty, silence, and the ghosts of Boyce Park. When new wolves defect from Peyton’s territory, Dom becomes their anchor — and finds himself drawn to someone who refuses to let him disappear behind his scars. As old wounds split open and Peyton tightens his grip, Dom must finally face the grief he never allowed himself to feel. His healing marks the first fracture in the power that has held the pack hostage for over a decade.

The following works are planned in the Highland Park Pack Series:


Short story—The Hearts We Choose: After losing his birth parents and two older siblings on the Day of Teeth, Nick discovers just how much he’s relied on Gray’s steady presence when one disastrous date forces him to confront the shape of the family he’s chosen.

Book 3 — The Weight of Broken Breath: When a medical crisis exposes the fractures in their carefully balanced lives, twins Chris and Dan Gaither must confront the truth about the night Boyce Park fell — and the cost of saving each other when breath itself becomes a battleground.

Book 4 — The Weight of Unclaimed Names: Haunted by the names he left behind, Darrell is forced to face the past he’s spent years outrunning when a new threat demands he finally claim the identity he’s long denied.

Short Story—The Bones We Bury: When a phone call drags her back into the orbit of the family who stayed with Boyce Park, Evie must decide what to bury, what to unearth, and what kind of future she can build over a cup of coffee and the ghosts she thought she’d left behind.

Book 5 — The Weight of Chosen Joy: In the aftermath of trauma, Mike, Keira, and Tasha must navigate the fragile, fierce joy they’ve chosen together — even as the world around them insists that happiness this hard‑won can’t possibly last.

Short Story— The Joy of Small Miracles: As Lincoln’s high‑risk pregnancy pushes the pack’s fears to the surface, Gray must balance instinct, love, and the fragile hope of new life in a world that has already taken too much from them.

Book 6 — The Weight of What Remains: As the truth of Boyce Park finally comes to light, the Denman Pack must decide what to carry forward, what to release, and what kind of family they will be when the last pieces of the past are laid bare.
