The Lycan King is my brother’s best friend. And my fated mate. We can't be together- but I'm carrying his secret baby.
We kept it secret- Nights where he ruined me, and growled, “If your brother knew what I'm doing to you, he’d kill me.”
Then came the claiming ceremony. I was supposed to be marked by another. But the Lycan King snapped.

And then?
He rejected me. Said it was a mistake, said he was marrying someone else.
Now I’m being promised to his enemy.
And no one knows the truth…
That I’m pregnant with the Lycan King’s pup. And when my family finds out the truth, all hell will break loose.

I found this to be an amazing story. But if I'm completely honest so reason why I didn't give it five stars is the over usage of best friend and my brother's best friend I thought I was going to pull my hair out if I read those words one more time.

But because of circumstances that he feels like she'll be unsafe with him he ends up rejecting her. Fast forward sometime she's heartbroken after finding out from her brother that the king is going to be marrying somebody else and she runs. But she runs into the arms of a bigger monster.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
~ Heavy BBS ~ OM drama ~ darker than expected ~ dub con ~ rutting
The best part of this was the smut, which was pretty good. Hot, heavy, good girl with knotting and a dominant wolf who likes to take over. But it was definitely written by 2 authors and one scene would be written twice but differently. The hero’s secret Hes so worried about is never explained as to why it’s dangerous for his mate, so the rejection didn’t make sense.
I really appreciated the OM drama, that the heroine went through with the wedding but then she instantly realizes her mistake. There’s some plot convenience with the mating bond because the H marks her without her consent and it works just fine, the OM tries and it doesn’t work.
Anyway I found it a frustrating story, hot and heavy, but the poor writing and editing was distracting.

This was a horrible shifter book and i don't recommend. There are way better books out there. I did not like this book, it was all over the place. I had difficulties finishing it. The fmc I did not like, I did not understand her actions or her all. The mfc was just as bad. I also did not like how I could not place the time of this book, I was not sure if this modern times or medieval. There's parts in this book where candles and torches are used, along with swords. Yet the alpha has a cell phone and a flat screen tv. Again I do not recommend, I'm upset that i wasted my energy reading this and giving this book a try.
Sometimes it is difficult reading the stupidity of fated mates stories. This rejection phrase usage makes no sense since the bond I moon blessed. But alphas for their power and intelligence screw up royally. Dade, A Lucas king proves how even being a king he can make common sense mistakes. Sera is a sheltered, young wolf that everyone keeps in the dark instead of explaining what she needs to know. This story was excellently told.
