No one comes between a wolf and their fated mate. Werewolf Laina Flynn has been dodging pressure to mate for years. The successful veterinarian may be Fireborn pack royalty, but she’s happy to leave raising pups to her alpha brother Silas. So when a human triggers her mating instinct, no one is more surprised than her. As the face of Hunt Club, Kyle Kingsley is no stranger to doing things out of obligation and responsibility. The public demands that he uphold the lifestyle the club has come to embody, even if his playboy persona is all a lie. No surprise then that Kyle volunteers to care for his recently deceased father's dog, even if the mutt is roughly the size of a barn. But when he lands in the clinic of Dr. Laina Flynn, her presence draws out something wild and untamed within him that has nothing to do with his new pet. An act of violence on Fireborn shifting grounds drives Laina into hiding... and into Kyle’s arms. Instant attraction develops into something more when fated bonds challenge everything.

I have always yearned for a bond that would make my heart race, make my body sing, and ignite my soul. Now, I have found four bonds that have woven themselves into my life, but the complications in our relationships threaten to unravel our entangled destinies. I’ve dreamed about being with Levi since I was a teenager but he keeps disappointing me. Caden embodies everything I've ever desired in a partner—gentle, kind, patient—a true Alpha who knows how to ignite the fire within my Alpha wolf half. However, he has a mysterious bond with Mateo and I’m not sure how I feel about it. Mateo harbors a deep-seated resentment towards me and views me as a replica of the woman who ruined his father. Our instincts should make us enemies, yet an irresistible attraction pulls us together, defying logic and reason. And then there's Aiden, the best friend I've always longed for, who wants to claim my heart. But as I navigate the complexities of these interwoven relationships, I hesitate to involve him in this twisted tapestry of emotions. Found Bonds is book two of four in Their Fated Mate series, and ends on a cliffhanger. *If you like these tropes: fated mates, reverse harem / why choose romance, badass heroines, cinnamon roll Alphas, childhood sweetheart romance, friends to lovers, enemies to lovers, werewolf romances, etc, this series is for you.

REMADE Left out from the action… After her cover was blown and her power failed her on a case, Sabine Holden sulks around the Academy, on probation. The last thing she needs is to go on another case, but since becoming an agent, being idle and doubting herself is not something she can do. When she’s unexpectedly partnered with him, she throws herself into the assignment. Her faith in her mind-bending power is an obstacle she doesn’t want to face, but there’s no way she’s going to be cast off to the sidelines anymore. Not when a war is coming, and especially not when Lorcan Wright thinks to head off on this case without her. Finally empowered… With his elven powers restored, there is nothing to hold Lor back from fighting Rogues for the Academy. Being paired with the girl he fell in love with six years ago, he aims to ignore her and focus on the case—to help his friends figure out once and for all why danger follows them. Now knowing that magiquaine elves can cast spells, and realizing shifters wait inside a cage at the Menagerie, he has no business worrying about Sabine’s feelings for him after all this time. As they are tasked with seeing to the safety of the remaining targeted elf elders, pieces begin to fit together in a big picture of peril. But strongest together. Not one but two enemies are hell-bent on fighting the magiquaines. Unless Sabine and Lor can compromise with each other and create a new way to work as partners, it seems they’ll lose their chance to end this overreaching battle for power—for good.
