I died the night my mate rejected me in front of our entire pack. I should have stayed dead. Instead, the Moon Goddess gave me something crueler than mercy. She gave me another chance, and a new name. Cosima. I no longer want love. I want power, and I know exactly whose bed I need to crawl into to get it. Raffaele, the Alpha of All Alphas, the most feared wolf in our world, a man rumored to have no mate, no weakness, no mercy. I was wrong about all three. What starts as a transaction becomes something neither of us can control. He makes me his Luna to secure his throne. I marry him to burn mine to the ground. But somewhere between the banter and the battles, the possessiveness and the promises, I stopped pretending, and so did he. Then she came home. Alive. Beautiful. His first wife, the one everyone thought was dead, the one whose name he still says like a wound that never closed. Now I have to fight for a crown I never wanted, a husband I was never supposed to love, and a truth buried so deep it might unmake us both. I am not the girl who died anymore. And this time, I do not lose.

Some vacations change your life. Marin Calloway's might end it. Burned out, drowning in debt, and one deadline away from falling apart, Marin reluctantly agrees to a luxury getaway after her best friend insists she needs a break. The secluded Aurelia Resort promises breathtaking views, endless relaxation, and a chance to forget the life waiting back home. Instead, she discovers monsters wearing designer suits. The resort is neutral ground for ancient supernatural rivals, and Marin has walked straight into the middle of a war centuries in the making. The Alpha who looks at her like she's the answer to every prayer swears he'll protect her. The Vampire King who steals her away insists she's safer with him. Both are lying. Or both are telling the truth. Because Marin isn't the ordinary woman she believes herself to be. Every sketch she's ever drawn has been quietly predicting the future, and the strange symbol filling the pages of her sketchbook may hold the key to ending a conflict that has claimed countless lives. Now wolves want to protect her. Vampires want to claim her. And something far older than either has been waiting for her to arrive. She came looking for peace. Instead, she found the war that was waiting for her all along.

Love doesn't live in the arms of the man who bought you. That's what I told myself the night my mother sold me to clear my dead father's debts. Angelo Rossi is everything I was warned about. Capo of the Italian mafia, a man whose name makes grown men flinch. I was supposed to be his shield, a wife bought to quiet rumors of weakness after an attempt on his life. I wasn't supposed to notice the way he softens when he thinks no one's watching. I wasn't supposed to want him to. His brother notices too. And Roberto has never been good at wanting things quietly. Love built on a transaction is a fragile thing, and someone in Angelo's own house is determined to break it. Someone who has been circling us since the night I first walked through his doors. When the war finally comes for me, it doesn't just take my safety. It takes my memory, my sense of who I am, and the only proof that Angelo Rossi ever loved me at all. He built an empire on being feared. Now he has to learn how to be trusted, before the woman he bought becomes the one thing his crown, and his brother, can't buy back.
