Elena Mireaux, a witch whose empathic magic is tied to the moon’s cycle, has one rule: stay away from shifters. The ancient feud between their kinds is more than tradition—a witch-shifter bond can unravel magic itself. But when she meets Lucian Ironwolf, a brooding alpha-heir with a wolf beneath his skin and a war in his eyes, the connection is instant and soul-deep. Defying their families and their legacies, they forge a bond in secret, daring to dream of a life built on love instead of laws.
They carve out a fragile peace between moonlit runs and hidden promises, planning a future together. But when a bloody conflict from Lucian’s world erupts, claiming a life he holds dear, their secret love becomes a target. Forced to choose between each other and the people they were born to protect, their bond is shattered in a storm of grief, betrayal, and a loss Elena must bear alone.
Seven years later, Dr. Elena Mireaux has built walls around her heart, her magic, and her grief. Luca Ironwolf is now a ghost of the man he was, scarred by war and shackled by guilt. When a case file lands on Elena’s desk with his name on it, the past doesn’t just knock—it breaks the door down. The bond they thought was dead still hums with a painful, persistent magic. As old enemies re-emerge and the moon’s pull draws them together once more, they must confront the wreckage of their past to see if a love born in secret can survive in the light—or if some breaks are beyond even magic’s repair.
Moonbound is a steamy, emotional contemporary fantasy romance perfect for readers who love forbidden soulmate bonds, deep magical lore, and stories where healing is as powerful as the heartbreak that came before.
