“Burn me alive, Maeve. Hurt me. Break me! But don’t go — don’t fucking go — don’t make me live in a world where you’re not mine.” * Maeve was the scrawny mate Alpha Ivan never wanted. He was unfeeling. His family mocked her. His pack shamed her. And when she miscarried their child, he called her careless—then made her best friend his breeder. Maeve left that night without a word. But what no one knew? She was still pregnant. A miracle from the goddess. Years later, Ivan is seconds from crowning his breeder as Luna and claiming the Alpha throne… when Maeve walks into the ceremony. Not the weak girl he threw away—but the kingdom’s most famous healer, rivaled by none, with a child who looks just like him. The bond he thought was dead still exists. The mate he rejected? Stronger than ever. And the heir he thought he lost? Still very much alive. Now Ivan wants them back. But Maeve didn’t return for love. She came to destroy the empire that spit her out. And this time, she’s not alone. She has his greatest enemy by her side.

Three years of marriage to Alpha Damien Blackwood taught her otherwise. The moment his first mate returns with tales of captivity and torture, Alyssa becomes expendable—a placeholder who's overstayed her welcome.

Two Alphas. One woman. And a child whose existence could destroy them all. Sometimes the Moon Goddess gives second chances. Sometimes she gives third ones.

But only one can claim the prize. A tale of betrayal, second chances, and the dangerous game of hearts where love and power collide.

I only downloaded the damn app to get my boss out of my dirty daydreams. Anonymous hookups, masks, no strings. Easy, right? Except my one perfect match left me wrecked for anyone else. And now two pink lines on a pregnancy test are glaring back at me. Here’s the kicker. My mystery hookup? None other than Garret Bannen. My CEO. The broody billionaire in a custom suit whose smirk makes my thighs clench every time he walks past my desk. My boss’s boss. The man who now knows exactly how I sound when I beg. I should quit. I should run. But Garret Bannen doesn’t let go. Not of contracts, not of control, and definitely not of the woman carrying his baby. Office gossip? Check. Scandal? Double check. A filthy CEO who wants to turn “expecting” into forever? I'm so screwed. Because falling for my boss was never in the terms of service.

On the day of her wedding, Ivy Quinn vanishes, leaving behind only a note: "I’m sorry, I can't marry a blind man." To protect her son from heartbreak, Elizabeth Winters strikes a desperate deal—Ruby, Ivy’s identical twin, must take her sister’s place at the altar. Trapped by duty and family pressure, Ruby agrees, believing it will only last until Stefan’s eyesight is restored. But from the moment they marry, Stefan senses something is different about his "wife." The woman beside him is nothing like the shallow fiancée he once knew. She’s sharp, resilient, and understands his business in a way Ivy never did. Against all odds, he falls harder than ever for this new version of her. And Ruby? She never expected to fall in love with a man who was never meant to be hers. But just when she finds the courage to tell him the truth, Ivy returns, ready to reclaim the life she abandoned. When Stefan finally opens his eyes, will he see the woman who truly stood by him—or will he be too blind to recognize real love? ****Excerpt**** “By the way, did Ruby come to the wedding?” he asked, catching her off guard since she hadn't expected him to ask her that all of a sudden. Was he already suspecting that it was her and not Ivy? Ruby’s fingers froze on the door handle for just a fraction of a second. It was enough to set off alarms in Stefan's head. “I—uh…” She hesitated, but only briefly. “No. She had work. She couldn’t make it.” Was he suspecting a switch already? What must have set off the alarm in his head? Stefan hummed, tilting his head slightly. “Oh, I see. How is she, then? I hope she's coming to visit one of these days?” Her fingers tightened on the handle, though her voice remained steady. “Yeah. She would, the moment she is chanced and can come.” A slow smirk tugged at the corner of Stefan’s lips, though he kept his expression neutral. Interesting. Very interesting. His wife had just lied to him and he didn't know why. Even though he was blind, he'd find out why soon enough.
