   Summary

   Carlisle Cullen will do anything to protect his family, but when Bella’s pregnancy puts them all at risk, he turns to the one person he trusts to have answers: Joy, a Volturi guard who is more like a prisoner.

   When she is finally allowed to leave Volterra, Joy helps the Cullens prepare for a change none of them are ready for. But with the Quileute pack growing more dangerous and the Volturi never far behind, survival will depend on more than just answers.
