Selene Navarro has spent years stitching broken bodies in the operating room, but nothing could mend the scars left by her own shattered marriage. An annulment freed her, but it also locked her heart in chains she swore never to break again.
Adrian Monteverde built an empire, but no amount of wealth could shield him from betrayal. Abandoned by his wife, he is left with two children and a silence he hides beneath boardrooms and business deals.
When Selene and Adrian's paths cross in the most unexpected way, their guarded lives begin to unravel. A single moment of care sparks questions neither of them are ready to face. Can love bloom in the ruins of trust? Or will the shadows of yesterday smother the light of a new beginning?
In the ashes of their pasts, dawn awaits-if they are brave enough to reach for it.

The Alpha's Forsaken Queen
"She was the Luna who lost everything-her child, her place, her heart. But when the truth of her bloodline awakens, she rises not as a discarded mate... but as a queen no wolf can command." Cast aside by her ruthless Alpha husband, betrayed by his mistress, and forced to grieve the loss of her unborn child, Selene Nightbloom vows never to be weak again. But her pain ignites something dormant inside her-ancient powers tied to a royal lineage long thought destroyed. As Selene reclaims her strength, she draws the attention of Adrian Cross, a magnetic CEO with secrets of his own. With Adrian, passion burns hot-stolen kisses at midnight, teasing touches that unravel her control, and a temptation she swears she must resist. Meanwhile, her ex-mate, Damien Blackthorn, spirals into obsession when he realizes the truth: he cast away not only his Luna, but the lost princess destined to rule. Now, torn between two powerful men and her own thirst for vengeance, Selene must decide... Will she claim love and power on her own terms? Or will the scars of betrayal pull her back into the darkness she escaped?

SEX AND SINS (The Alpha's Forbidden Claim)
WARNING: MATURE CONTENT. RATED 18+. 90% STEAMY Selene never expected the thick darkness her life was about to plunge into. A young, new-adult wolf raised under the strict expectations of her aging father and the proud legacy of her ancestors, she's lived by every rule-rules meant to keep her from losing to the rival dynasty threatening to claim the throne from her family, the prestigious Ravencrofts. But the one person she thought would protect her shatters her instead. Her father's cold, public humiliation cuts deeper than any enemy's blade, all because of the one flaw she can't control-her heat. It surges too often, too powerfully, even outside mating season... and now it's a curse she can't escape. Broken and burning for release, Selene seeks reckless oblivion in the city's most dangerous den of demons-a forbidden club dripping with sin and shadow. There, she collides with a sinfully irresistible stranger drawn to the wild, unrestrained heat she can't hide. One night is all it takes for him to brand himself into her body and soul-a night of decadent, breathless pleasure she'll never forget. But when the haze fades, Selene learns the devastating truth. The man who consumed her? Her older sister's Alpha husband. He's already tasted her. He wants more. And he'll stop at nothing-no law, no loyalty, no taboo-to claim her completely. Now Selene is caught in a storm of forbidden desire, torn between resisting the man who could ruin her and surrendering to the sinful pull that could destroy them both. Because the only thing more dangerous than his touch... is how much she wants it.

Two Moons
For centuries, the House of Viridelle has borne the gift-and curse-of Sight. Selene Viridelle, the last of her line, carries more than visions in her blood; she carries the weight of an ancient prophecy foretelling that a child would shape the fate of kingdoms. Now, the prophecy seems to be at last coming to pass... and not in the way she hoped. Forced into an arranged marriage to King Zahir of Qamara, Selene faces a gilded cage. The king seeks not love, but power-wishing for his heirs to inherit her magic and bind it forever to his throne. As a week-long celebration leads up to the wedding, whispers of rebellion and water shortages stir unrest among Qamara's people, threatening to spill into the surrounding kingdoms. When Selene's visions turn dark, revealing that staying in Qamara means death, she seizes her chance for escape-falling in with a secretive band investigating the kingdom's water crisis. Among them is a brilliant but guarded engineer, Renric, whose haunted eyes hide royal blood long thought lost... and Darian, his charismatic, ruthless companion whose loyalty conceals dangerous ambition. The two men share a bond forged in war and secrets-but one that fractures under Selene's presence, unraveling into betrayal and hidden rivalries. Every secret revealed brings Selene closer to the truth-and to a love that could rewrite the destiny carved in her blood. But in a land of lies and legacy, even love may not survive the coming storm. ***TRIGGER WARNINGS: Abuse, emotional manipulation, domestic violence, toxic relationships, drug and alcohol use, eating disorders, murder, and light mention of self-harm and suicide ideation.***
Crown of Shadows
In Tenebris, love is a weapon - and the most beautiful promises are the ones designed to break you. Lady Selene of House Auclair has spent her life in silence, haunted by a bloodline the Empire wants forgotten. Her betrothal to Prince Reverien Latimer is not mercy. It is a warning. The court calls it peace. But beneath the marble floors and moonlit halls, everyone knows this union was forged with ulterior motives - power, punishment, and something far darker. The Imperial Court is a nest of predators draped in silk. Smiles hide sharpened teeth. Secrets bleed through the walls. And Selene, the quiet noblewoman they dismissed, is far more dangerous than they realized. Her fiancé is no exception. Reverien is a man carved from discipline and shadows - a prince with cold hands, a colder reputation, and loyalties bound in blood. Yet he is drawn to Selene in ways neither of them can afford. Their bond is not gentle. It is a slow-burning collision of defiance, desire, and unspoken hunger - a partnership that could save an empire... or shatter it from within. As whispers sharpen into threats and forbidden longing coils between them, Selene must decide which is more perilous: the danger stalking the court... or the prince who shares her bed. Because in Tenebris, a single kiss can crown you - or condemn you.
