What if wolves naturally expanded their territory into the Adirondacks?

Not in theory. Not in textbooks. But flesh and breath—moving through trees we thought were ours alone.

Some would call it progress. Others, a threat.

Jess, an ecologist studying a breeding pair in the Adirondacks, used to be on one side. Now she’s not so sure.

Because when wolves return, so do the questions:

Who gets to decide what belongs?

What do we owe the wild?

And what happens when we mistake fear for protection?

This theme runs deep in We Were Meant to Be Wolves—a story rooted in real-world conservation, identity, and the blurry lines between what we love and what we fear.

If you’ve ever worked in rescue… or fallen for something untamable—you’ll feel this one in your bones.

We Were Meant to Be Wolves — a psychological eco-thriller about wolves and the fine line between conservation and control that bites back. Coming this summer.
