He hasn’t shifted in five years — ever since his mate died. Everyone thinks he’s broken beyond repair. Then a stranger moves into town and her scent makes his wolf stir... She’s human. She’s engaged. And she tastes like the mate he lost. Alpha Killian Hayes never believed in second chances — not after the night his mate was torn from him in a violent ambush. He buried his wolf, his heart, and every desire he ever had to feel again. His pack learned to live without their Alpha’s howl… and he learned to live without his soul. Until her. Lena Marshall didn’t come to Blackthorn Ridge to fall in love. She’s weeks away from marrying a man she’s convinced will give her the quiet life her troubled heart needs. But from the moment she steps into Killian’s world, something aches in her bones — something old, hungry, and terrifyingly familiar. Killian knows the scent. That impossible, intoxicating pull. The way his dormant wolf claws to life at the sound of her voice. It’s a scent he thought he’d never breathe again — the scent of his mate. But Lena is human. Unmarked. Unaware. And promised to someone else. Now, with a looming threat awakened by Lena’s presence, Killian must confront a truth he’s fought for years: the moon doesn’t make mistakes — but fate, love, and loyalty can. And this time, the cost of claiming what’s his might mean destroying everything he once vowed to protect. Because if she truly is his mate reborn… He will fight for her. He will bleed for her. And he will ruin the world before he lets her go a second time. An aching, forbidden, fated love story where the past never truly dies — it only waits to be found again.

A forbidden billionaire romance full of secrets, betrayal, and undeniable chemistry. She was raised to hate his name. He was raised to destroy her family. But one reckless night changed everything. When Ashley Walter, the daughter of a powerful media mogul, sneaks into a masked charity gala, she just wants to forget who she is for one night. No titles. No rivalry. Just the thrill of being someone else — especially after realizing her fiancé might not be who he claims to be.
