In a world where power rules and secrets run deep, one girl learns that hiding can't save her from fate. When her path crosses with a relentless alpha, everything she thought she knew shatters. Dark Moon Rising is a story of forbidden desire, ancient curses, and the wild pull of a bond that refuses to be broken.

When the moon rises, nothing stays the same.
_____________________________________________
Lyra West thought she'd escaped fate.
Until the night her pack burned.

Wounded and alone, she stumbles across the borders of the infamous Black Hollow Pack... a territory whispered about in warning, ruled by a man said to be as cruel as he is powerful. Alpha Lucien. A leader forged in blood, haunted by a prophecy that cursed him to live (and rule)without a mate.

But the moment Lyra steps into his home, something ancient stirs.
A spark that shouldn't exist.
A pull neither of them understands.

He's dangerous. Controlled. Bound by darkness.
She's broken. Hunted. Hiding secrets that could destroy them both.

As the mystery of her past unravels and whispers of a rogue uprising spread across the packs, one truth becomes impossible to ignore...
Fate doesn't make mistakes.
And sometimes, love is the cruelest curse of all.

Tropes:
✨ Fated mates - denied destiny
🔥 Alpha x wounded she-wolf tension
💀 Prophecy, curses, and ancient bloodlines
💋 Slow-burn forbidden attraction
🐺 Pack politics, secrets, and betrayal
👨 Age Gap 
☀️Sunshine x grump, opposites attract

She was the perfect Luna... until betrayal broke her. Nyssa Holt gave everything to her husband, Alpha Cassian. She ruled the Moonfang Pack with grace, wit, and her powerful royal-blooded wolf, Vianna. But perfection meant nothing when she caught her Alpha in bed with three maids. Humiliated. Rejected. Done. Nyssa vanished into the human world, took back her maiden name Blackwell, and built an empire-billionaire CEO of LUNARIX Industries, untouchable in boardrooms and feared across wolf society. Five years later, the Moonfang Pack came crawling back. Cassian had fallen, enemies circled, and the pack begged for their Luna to return. But Nyssa didn't come back as Luna. She came back as Alpha. The Moon Goddess herself blessed her with visions. And in her first vision came a command: host the Mate Hunt. Find not one, but many mates truly worthy of her. So Nyssa created hunting grounds that spanned for miles. The rules were simple, brutal, and thrilling: Unmated females would be released first. Three hours later, the males would follow. If a male could hunt down and claim a female, she was his. The packs were electrified. Everyone wanted in. Everyone wanted a chance. But when the hunt began, Nyssa discovered the Goddess's true gift, she was destined not for one mate, but for second chance mates. Bonds flared with more than one Alpha. Desire burned hotter than fire. And as rivals plotted and ex-lovers circled back, Nyssa faced the most dangerous choice of all... Would she claim her mates and crown herself Alpha Queen of Moonfang? Or would the sins of her past destroy her before she could rise? 🔥 Tropes inside Sins of the Luna: Betrayal & Divorce 💔 Billionaire CEO Heroine 💼 Alpha Female 👑 Revenge & Exiled Alpha ❄️ The Mate Hunt ⚔️ Reverse Harem 🔥🔥🔥 Second Chance Mates ✨ Enemies to Lovers ⚡ Bad Boy Obsession 🖤 Kingdom Building 🏰 This is a sample only!

Aliya Matsuoka meets "him" in her dreams - a regal yet unexpectedly shy man. But strangest of all, he always meets her in the forest, where their instant bond escalates into a sensual night beneath the stars. In waking reality, a monstrous ex blurred Aliya's judgment on whom to trust. She won't even kiss most dates, let alone "get down and dirty in the leaves" with a gorgeous stranger. When Aliya follows an uncontrollable urge to retrace her dream's steps, reality surpasses her wildest imagination; she's living amongst Lycans, shapeshifters who can morph into wolves at will. Outspoken for his "untraditional values" that Lycan sexes should have equal rights, shy Alpha Noah Greenfield faces constant pushback from other Alphas who thrive on dominance. As Aliya and Noah's fated love transcends all bonds, Aliya unleashes her desires. But diving into this paranormal fairytale isn't enough to erase Aliya's trauma; there's always a chance another monster could follow her home. **This is an EXCERPT from the rough draft of My Shy Alpha: Book 1 of the Steamy Shifter Romance Series, now available on KU and as a paperback and hardcover in global bookstores!

"I call bullshit." Digging my finger into his broad chest, I met his intense stare without an ounce of fright, "I've been calling bullshit for the past two weeks, do you see me doing anything about it?" He pushed my hand away from his chest, sending shocks through my arm by his touch. "You're not worth trusting, none of us think you are." A searing sensation in my chest distracted me momentarily, "Do I get bonus points if I act like I care?" ******** The possibility of being the only living Aurelia left made life harsh, cold and unforgiving for Aspen Havoc. After being thrown out by her parents, she's forced to live the true and merciless life of the one most hated species on earth. Learning to be tough and defend herself was difficult when loneliness was her life, all alone with absolutely no one to turn to. Arrax Santora, the Alpha of The Dark Moon Pack, didn't expect the meeting between him and Aspen, and he definitely did not expect to feel an instant connection. Their journey leads them to hell and back. As secrets are revealed and truths uncovered, will they run for their life or attack the brewing storm together.
