The book begins by introducing Christopher Beckett as a werewolf. He is forced to live a lonely life and becomes tired of it.

When the wolf inside Chris begins to howl desperately for a mate, he realizes that it is time for him to keep everything aside and look for his partner. Chris decides to cast the spell that every other Beckett before him has used to attract their mates towards them. Christopher Beckett wishes for a woman belonging to an old lineage and who possesses a power equal to the one he has. Also, Chris wants his mate to accept his wolf aspect as it is the one thing that sets him apart from other wizards. Christopher Beckett’s mate turns out to be Alannah Evans, who is a witch belonging to the powerful Evans Coven. Alannah doesn’t seem to have any problems with Chris. However, it bothers her that he is a wizard because she fears that they won’t get along well as she is a witch. In spite of that, they seem to get attracted to one another. Later, an old enemy tries to kill both Alannah and Chris. Chris cannot see his mate dying in front of him. He engages in a duel battle with his enemy without worrying about losing his own life in the process.

The second volume of this series is called ‘Hecate’s Own’. It was published by the Samhain Publishing Ltd in 2013. The main characters of this novel include Johra Yashodar and Zachary Beckett. Dana has set the plot in Cleveland. Initially, it is mentioned in the book that Zachary Beckett has always been a screw-up all his life. He does one thing right when he saves his brother from an enemy, but it comes at a great personal cost to him. After this incident, Zachary is sent to Cleveland to undergo training as a witch. At his training center, he comes across his teacher named Johra Yashodar, who thinks that he is still the same screwed up person that he used to be before. It doesn’t take much time for Zachary Beckett to fall for his beautiful teacher.

Johra has never come across a man like Zach. She feels haunted by his blue eyes and thinks that he is the worst witch that has ever come to train under her. But, she is willing to help him and make him a better witch. And in order to do that, Johra has to suppress the attraction that keeps drawing her close to the man. Soon after, Zachary Beckett learns that he has a power of his own and turns into a Hecate’s Own. It turns out that Zach has been selected by the Goddess to fight and defeat the evil. He joins his brothers to save Johra Yashodar from a deadly fate that she doesn’t seem to have any idea about. This novel also contains graphic language and explicit sex sequences. It was liked by numerous readers all over the world. The success of this novel helped Dana to add a few more titles to the series.
