Introduction
Why Tech Billionaire Artemis Rhodes would post such a thing?!
"Everyone is talking about the hashtag that just went viral in less than a few hours. Nevertheless, this girl has become a mystery everyone wants to solve. In fact, we have pictures from several people who have seen the girl in person."
The screen of the phone is small but I catch several pictures of me flashing on the screen. This can't be happening!
You know that panic attack I had been pushing down? Well, that thing comes back with a vengeance. It feels like all the air is sucked out of me and my chest gets tight. My vision blurs and I register I'm falling just before things go dark.
"Relax Miss Riley, this is Mr. Rhodes a donor to our hospital. This woman is his fiancee. I'll take things from here." The doctor says and steps aside to let the nurse out.
I watch her scurry away before I focus on the doctor. He's an older man with white hair and a friendly face but he gives me weird vibes.
Wait...did he just say, fiancee?
"I'm sorry what did you say?" I ask.
"I have a proposition for you." The man says.
"A proposition for me? What do you mean?"
"A proposition? It means-"
I wave my hand. "Not that! I'm not an idiot. I mean what proposition?"
"I want you to marry me." He says with a straight face.
So I bet your wondering how a woman who lives in an abandoned train car ends up married to a big tech billionaire.
Well it's simple. We ran right into each other, locked eyes and the rest is history.
Okay, no that's not exactly how it happened. See Artemis Rhodes is in a pinch. He needs a bride by his next birthday...six days from now. So what does he do? He hunts me down like a crazy stalker and offers me a ton of money to marry him.
Crazy right?
Of course I refuse because I have some dignity, but when my world is turned upside down I have no choice but to accept. Thanks to him I can't go back to my old life, and now I'm stuck in his.
I'm his rebellion against his family and the thorn in his flesh...His words not mine...
We are from different worlds and that means eventually those world clash and with it disaster strikes ready to tear the whole scheme apart. You know, just a regular Tuesday.
So what do two people do when everything starts going wrong?
Well let me tell you...

I just love this book. I feel like both Blue and Artemis will end up healing each other. Though Blue's trauma is way worse, Artemis has issues of his own that need to be resolved. Author is doing a wonderful job building their relationship.

I cramped so bad with my Tom, flowed so heavy, my best time was when I was pregnant and I was so glad after my partial hysterectomy.

The progression of Blue’s character was captivating and fun to read. While the relationship between them had an awkward and quick start, their connection felt real. I enjoyed reading your storyline. #bingeread

“You think I’d share my mate? Just stand by and watch while you fuck another woman and have her kids?”
“She’d just be a Breeder, you would be the Luna. Once she’s pregnant, I wouldn’t touch her again.” My mate Leon’s jaw tightened.
I laughed, a bitter, broken sound.
“You’re unbelievable. I’d rather accept your rejection than live like that.”

Every girl at the age of eighteen, if left unmated, is volunteered for the Alphas Hunt. Hazel is no exception and also the only one who sees it not as a chance to find a strong Alpha to take care of her, but rather as a ceremony that strips you of your free will and sends you out into the woods to be hunted like a deer.
If she is claimed she will be his. If she is not, she will return in shame and be shunned from her pack.
Hazel knows the ways of the Alphas, being the daughter of a Beta, but what she doesn't count on is the presence of the Lycan King. The leader of all is participating in his first-ever hunt, and she is his prey.
Warning: This book contains a LOT of mature content such as strong language, explicit sx scenes, physical and mental abuse, BDSM, etc.*

All of a sudden there was a growl that ripped through the room and the band stopped playing and I heard something smash. Like it was a wooden chair or something.
Everyone looked in that direction and there was a man standing there that I had never noticed before. He would have been in his early 20's, brown hair to his shoulders, a brown goatee, 6-foot 6 at least and very defined muscles that were now tense as his intense gaze was staring directly at me and Mason.
But I didn't know who he was. I was frozen in the spot and this man was just staring at us with pure hatred in his eyes. But then I realized that the hatred was for Mason. Not me.
"Mine." He demanded.
