His rejection cuts deeper than any blade, but I know what I must do. “I, Ella of the Blue Moon Pack,” I whisper, my voice breaking, “accept your rejection.”

Entangled in a whirlwind of love, betrayal, and survival, she finds herself running for her life. But the mate bond isn’t finished with her yet. When the Rogue King rises, and Connor drags her back to his war-torn pack, Ella must decide whether she can forgive, heal, and step into the role fate demands of her.

The lines between fear and longing blur until she can’t tell where danger ends and desire begins. Survival demands distance, yet every moment close to him feels like a secret she’s not ready to give up. Is she falling for her captor—or is she just losing herself?

The Doctor's Mates Book 1

Corinthe Davies

Anastasia thrives on chaos, caffeine, and saving lives during long ER night shifts. She expects blood, broken bones, and the occasional miracle, not a secret call that pulls her into a hidden wolf pack with rules of its own. Medicine meets moonlight as instincts stir and bonds snap into place without asking permission. Three powerful wolves circle her world, each reacting differently to the pull they cannot deny. One offers warmth, one offers loyalty, and one clearly wishes she would disappear. Anastasia carries secrets of her own, and staying detached feels safer than trusting fate. But when destiny growls this loudly, can anyone pretend it is not real?

When she finally loses faith in humanity, an unlikely savior offers her refuge. But safety is never free in a broken world. Has Rayna truly found a haven—or is she being held for a far darker fate?

The Last Bloodline 1: Beta Xavier Costa

The Last Bloodline 1: Beta Xavier Costa

Amina Hazim

“What is this?” Eleanor whispered, her voice trembling as she gazed up at Xavier, her eyes glistening with unshed tears.

“Can’t you see? It’s a mating contract agreement,” Xavier replied, his tone devoid of warmth as he looked at her—the woman destined to share his life. Eleanor felt a wave of anxiety wash over her, as if the walls were closing in, amplifying the weight of the moment.

Eleanor never expected to be bound by a six-month mating contract, especially not with Xavier, a man she’s only just met. After losing her mother, she’d held on to the hope that love would find her again, but now she’s facing a forced union with a man whose past is shrouded in mystery and pain. The contract is meant to be temporary, but as Eleanor and Xavier are thrust together, the walls between them grow, and the intensity of their bond is tested. Will they learn to love each other, or will the weight of secrets and unresolved trauma tear them apart?

“Mate.”

When Autumn Blackthorne’s parents die, leaving behind a mountain of debt, she is forced to become an indentured servant to the fearsome King Elijah. When she meets the king himself, her inner wolf screams that she has met her mate. But can the alpha king ever see her as more than a maid?

Zainab Sambo

“What are you willing to do to get what you want, Ms. Hart?”

I looked up at him, those stormy grey eyes devoid of emotion. My heart pounded in my chest, my throat dry with fear. He was offering me everything I needed so desperately. But what would it cost me?

“I won’t ask again.”

I closed my eyes and signed away my soul to the most dangerous man in England.

“Anything.”

Mason Campbell is cold, hard, and unapologetic. He’s envied by men and wanted by women. Lauren Hart has just landed a job as his assistant and is constantly on the receiving end of his hatred.
