As a wolf shifter growing up in a strong pack, I should be living my best life. But after my father tried to kill our leader, I’m labelled an outcast, traitor, less than dirt. When I can't take pack life any longer, I run, but apparently they don't like losing their punching bag. Torin, the leader’s son, drags me back before my first shift...a shift that will reveal my true mate. I never could have predicted who mine would be, but the moment my wolf looks upon him, I’m filled with hope for a brighter future.

I keep my head down. In this backward pack, females rank low, and my bad leg makes me damaged goods. It doesn’t help that I’ve never shifted. I don’t mind the late-20s single life, though. No one’s paying any attention as I build an illicit farmer’s market empire. My roomies and I are doing it for ourselves, and if life under Killian Kelly is stifling, at least it’s predictable. We can deal. But when biology finally kicks in, I lose my mind. I claim our alpha as my mate. And he rejects me in front of the whole pack.

My fated mate betrayed me, leaving me broken and alone. As the future second-in-command of my pack, my destiny was clear—until the leader of a rival pack rejected our bond, shattering my heart and destroying my world. But his cruelty didn't stop there. He unleashed a brutal attack, slaughtering everyone I loved. Barely escaping with my sister, we were hunted, wounded, and desperate. Swept into a raging river, I thought death was inevitable—until Ryker, a dangerously sexy shifter cloaked in shadows, pulled me from the water.

Aria Garcia, once the respected Luna of the powerful Silver Moon Pack, finds her world shattered when her mate, Alpha Xander, chose Sophia from another pack and rejected her. Cast out and humiliated, Aria retreats to rebuild her life, only to discover she's pregnant with a pup she believes is lost. As Aria struggles to find her footing, she's caught between Shawn, the loyal alpha of a rival pack who offers her protection and a fresh start, and the lingering feelings for Xander she can't seem to shake.

A public rejection ignited a nightmare, but it also led me to Ryker, the ruthless, possessive wolf leader Fate truly chose for me. His promise won't ever be broken, forged by merging our two souls. Now, the real enemy emerges from the shadows wearing a trusted face, causing the sting of betrayal to run deeper than my new found family has ever known.

As the daughter of my pack’s lame wolf, I’m an outcast, a social reject considered unsuitable for mating. My life is a daily grind of drudgery, humiliation, and abuse. Then during a ceremony to our god, Fenris-Wulf, fate made me the alpha’s true mate. My heart fills with hope. This could be the end of my problems, a happy life filled with acceptance, but when I shift, I become a monster.

Betrayed by the man who was meant to stand beside me, I watched my pack fall in a bloodbath of treachery. My sister and I barely escaped—but in the chaos, we were separated. Pulled from the river, I was saved—begrudgingly—by Ryker, a ruthless and powerful pack leader with secrets of his own. A man I don't trust and can't seem to escape. The pull between us is undeniable, but after everything, I refuse to let another wolf break me.

Unlike other werewolves, I never wanted a mate. I would rather teach stupid mortals than inherit my family business as my father wished. Because I hated my blood. But I met her, in a bar, on a chaotic night. She's so distinguished, and her scent drove me crazy. With all my strength, I forced myself to leave because I didn't want to entangle this innocent girl in my abyss. But she reappeared in my class. Loving her seemed to have already been written in my genes, and I couldn't resist her no matter how hard I tried.

Accused by the Queen of Dominion of bringing Darkness to the world, Amira and her men must go on a quest to destroy three unholy objects in order to stop the darkness before it fully engulfs the world. Along the way danger abounds, as these unholy objects are more dangerous than they seem, possessing dark magics powerful enough to kill anyone who dare come looking for them. Like Amira didn't have enough on her hands, Ragnaron has joined their quest, sparking fierce conflict and competition with the Blood Moon Alphas as every wolf wants Amira for himself.

Harlow has been ready to stand at her mate's side as he Ascends to the position of alpha for years. But he crushes that dream and wrenches her heart out when he chooses another female to be his mate. Unable to stay and witness her would-be mate’s continuing betrayal, Harlow flees to the small town of Forest Crest and finds work at a local vet. But malicious hunters are hot on her scent and she's forced to seek Sanctuary with the enigmatic Gravecrest Pack where she's drawn into the orbit of powerful Alpha Atlas and steadfast Beta Colt.

She walks in on me banging another woman. One sniff in her direction, and I know she's mine. Scenting his fated mate, my wolf awakens and roars with lust. But Tessa Morrigan can't be my queen. She came too late. I've started the Underworld Bride Trials. All the women must fight to the death until the last one stands by my side.

When my family left our small, ultra-conservative pack back in Utah to join a giant pack in Northwest Louisiana, I thought I'd be able to coast through my last year of high school in semi-anonymity, then get the f--k away from wolf pack politics and just live my life for awhile. But the Moon decided to prolong my torture by placing my fated mate in front of my face on my first day at Blackstone Academy. He's the Alpha's son and king of a school crawling with shifters, and it turns out he doesn't care to be saddled with a Moon-chosen mate who he thinks is a nobody omega wolf.

The mate I rejected made a grave error. He played his hand too early, and he underestimated what a shifter is willing to survive in the name of love. When my mates, my family, and my pack are all threatened, there will be casualties. Who deserves to survive? And when the pieces start to fall into place—who really gets what they deserve?
