In the quiet, coastal town of Havenridge, a strange phenomenon begins to unfold. Every full moon, the ocean tide pulls back far beyond the usual shoreline, exposing a labyrinth of ancient ruins. Within these ruins, townsfolk whisper of a curse linked to a centuries-old feud between two powerful families-the Lycanders, known for their wolf-like cunning, and the Solvans, revered for their healing and light magic. Both families mysteriously vanished nearly 200 years ago after a devastating battle during a lunar eclipse.
The protagonist, Mira Valen, a spirited 19-year-old college dropout, returns to Havenridge after her mother's disappearance. She inherits a crumbling inn near the coastline, where she discovers journals and artifacts revealing that her family is directly tied to the Lycanders. As Mira delves into her ancestry, she learns that the Lycanders weren't just werewolves-they were Moonbound, capable of controlling their transformations by siphoning lunar energy from relics hidden in the ruins.
Things take a dark turn when Cassian Solvan, a brooding stranger with a mysterious past, arrives in town seeking the same relics. Cassian claims he's the last of the Solvans and accuses Mira of being the key to reigniting the ancient feud. Despite their animosity, the two are forced to work together after discovering a third party-The Shadows, a cult worshipping a lunar deity-is hunting both families to claim the relics for their own sinister plans: to unleash eternal darkness.

As danger looms and tempers flare, he'll have to find a way to break down her walls before it's too late. *** Scars...some are worn on the outside and read like a book, others are hidden on the inside, unseen but shape every fabric of our being. Alpha Chris has his share of scars. He wears them like badges of honour, having earned them protecting his pack. Jess carries hers on the inside, a collection of secret shame... After Jess breaks free of an abusive ex, she goes home to her farm in the remote countryside to pick up the pieces of her shattered life. She tries to bury her trauma and move on, determined not to let anyone get too close again. Chris has given up on finding his mate and focuses all of his energy on his pack, growing colder and more distant with every passing year. Just when he least expects it, she falls into his lap, smelling like his best friend and wanting nothing to do with him. What happens when a battle-hardened Alpha who is used to getting his way comes up against a stubborn woman set on walling herself from everyone? More than brute strength is needed to break through those walls and reach her. When hidden enemies threaten both their lives, will he be able to reach his Goddess-given gift in time? Or will pride and tempers ruin their last chance at happiness? The Moon Goddess has a plan that neither understands. *** BOOK 1 OF THE FORGOTTEN WOLF SERIESComplete
THERON (Book III In The Ancients Series) ✔
(Please read Theron 1 before moving on to this book) A stranger washes ashore on a deserted beach. With no memory of who or what he is, the only clue he has to his identity--the only thing he recalls from his past life--is a single, solitary name: Lina. But on a planet with over seven billion inhabitants, his only chance of finding her rests solely within the hands of Fate itself... and the help of a sassy, young street rat. A child's life hangs in the balance--a child whose blood is so unique it has the power to change the course of the future for one group of supernaturals in particular... and this group doesn't howl at the moon. For Lina and the other Ancients, a new war is brewing and in a very literal sense. This battle will not be fought with bullets and teeth like the massacre at Superlunar, but rather with magic and wit and maybe a little divine intervention. So, how do you fight an evil you can't touch? How do you stop a weapon you can't see? And how to you protect the ones you have no memory of loving? Easy! You have to remember what you don't know you knew... You have to remember who you are... You just have to remember. ⚠️ This story is marked "Mature" for a reason.
