loved both books... although the proportion of abused characters is overwhelming. :) I definitely have lost track of time reading both books and cannot wait for the next one. I hope Andre and Cole can mend things. thank you for a great story with engaging characters

Now, she’s stuck with an overprotective, brooding bloodsucker who keeps rescuing her, a growing list of enemies who want her dead, and an undeniable attraction that’s making it very hard to remember why falling for a vampire is a terrible idea.
Because if she’s not careful, she won’t just lose her heart—she’ll lose her humanity.

A pack of their own
Crowned by Fate
“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.”
——
As a girl without a wolf, I left my mate and my pack behind.
Among humans, I survived by becoming a master of the temporary: drifting job to job… until I became the best bartender in a small town.
That’s where Alpha Adrian found me.

If she is claimed she will be his. If she is not, she will return in shame and be shunned from her pack.
