Introduction
He had finally found the mate he had spent a decade of his life looking for, he wouldn't lose her.
"I am no man's mate Mr Lupus, least of all yours."
She was a woman with her own dreams, fiercely independent and not one to bow down to any man's demands.
"Yes, your reputation preceeds you, the most powerful alpha in the country. But here, you are just another customer.”
But a wolf is a predator; they are programmed to hunt, and an Alpha male, well they don't give up, ever. No matter the disrespect thrown at them by their prey.
He was determined to have her. She was determined not to be had.***
Colt Merrier was an anomaly, she was a shifter without an animal, and she thought she was happy in life. Then he came on the scene, Elijah Lupus. The Alpha of the largest wolf pack in the country, and he is claiming Colt is his!

this storyline is quite interesting! I'm always happy to find new ideas (which does not happen very often, at this point), and this one seems promising also in terms of interactions between the two main characters! on the other hand: Mr. Lupus? really? 😂😂 #whatsapp

I love it when an author doesn’t give us a typical or played out storyline. Not only are we getting a unique story, the main female character is smart and strong. Win, win! #whatsapp

Interesting story. It's first time when I read a story with so many shifters in it. I like her, she is feisty and a good leader. Hope she will accept him as her mate. #whatsapp

I have read this author before and she is a wonderful story teller. This is another strong book with a strong female who isn't just looking for a man. I am looking forward to seeing how their relationship develops. #whatsapp

Right out of the gate this is an “add to library” book! I love the strong female lead and that she is successful and confident on her own. I know I have barely scratched the surface with this book but I can not wait to read more! #whatsapp

Ohh just from the intro I am already looking forward to reading this, I love when the FL makes it hard for the ML and even thou there is a bond, he has to work for it… not big on the submissive type characters for leads, unless there is an actual reason for their submissiveness. Added to my library #whatsapp

Just started reading Determind. And like allways, you drag me in right away Bethany. Can't wait to read the entire book. Hopefully there will also be some humor and exitement, but I don't doubt there will be. I want the fl to be strong and don't just give in, but I do love a happy ending. (sucker for those.... 😅🥰) #whatsapp

Unwanted Mate Of The Lycan Kings
Upon meeting the three Lycan kings, Zirah learns that the Kings are no prince charmings.

The Kings want nothing to do with her or each other and plan to get rid of her.
What they don't expect is for Zirah to fight back, only she plays with something far more dangerous than weapons. She’ll play with their hearts.
Zirah has to pick one King, but secrets will be revealed, and the battle between the Kings will be for more than just the throne. They will battle for the queen that they tried to break. But there's just one issue: Zirah wants revenge, and what better revenge than taking away their precious throne?
Badass in Disguise
"Jade, I need to check your—" the nurse began.
"OUT!" I snarled with enough force that both women backed toward the door.
Once feared by Shadow Organization that drugged me to replicate my abilities into a more controllable version, I had escaped my restraints and detonated their entire facility, ready to die alongside my captors.
Instead, I woke up in a school infirmary with women arguing around me, their voices piercing my skull. My outburst froze them in shock—clearly they hadn't expected such a reaction. One woman threatened as she left, "We'll discuss this attitude when you get home."
The bitter truth? I've been reborn into the body of an overweight, weak, and supposedly dim-witted high school girl. Her life is filled with bullies and tormentors who've made her existence miserable.
But they have no idea who they're dealing with now.
I didn't survive as the world's deadliest assassin by allowing anyone to push me around. And I certainly won't start now.

Violent Little Thing.
“Angel, you have a filthy fucking mouth”, I whispered low into her ear.
“Luciano…” Finally, an expression on her face. A real one she wasn’t hiding from me. It wasn’t fear though. It was lust. My girl likes this. I pulled her down further so she could feel just how much I was liking it too and the most enchanting gasp came from her mouth while her eyes rolled back for a moment.
