She walked out on her Alpha, and woke up bonded to his rival.

Lily Hartsbane rejected her cheating Alpha on their wedding night and walked out in her wedding dress. She made it eight miles down the north road before she collapsed in a ditch.

She wakes two days later in the gray wolves’ town with a hum under her ribs. The man on the other end of it is standing with his nose to the wallpaper, because he walked in without waiting and she’s naked. Logan Johnson is Alpha of Blackridge: a mechanic, a gentleman, and a giant who sneezed at her through an entire council meeting. His wolf hasn’t shut up since she arrived. Her wolf took one look at him and said That one.

Blackridge has hot water that never runs out. There’s a mother who texts Did you eat every night at a quarter to nine, a town that knows everything by noon, and a pink bedroom that belongs to nobody but Lily. She’s done saying “Yes, Alpha.” Now she says what she wants, in order, on Logan’s front porch, loud enough for the neighbors to hear.

Then Stonefang sends a letter. Vargus wants his Luna back, and he’s offering to pay for a road to get her.

Lily has a few things to say about that.

A rejected-mate shifter romance with a heroine finding her voice, a hero who always asks first, and a bond nobody planned. Book Two of The Rival Alpha’s Luna.
