Romans First-Person POV & Histoires Alpha Face-Slapping

Joan Hayes has spent years believing she caused the accident that killed her father. Living under the cruel control of her stepmother Rita, she works exhausting night shifts at Lux Club just to pay debts that never seem to end while struggling to keep the scholarship that could make her a doctor. Everything changes after she accidentally breaks a three-million-dollar bottle of champagne belonging to Crestwood University's queen bee, Isobel Vance. Humiliated and forced to kneel on broken glass, Joan is rescued by a mysterious stranger who pays the debt, gives her money, and disappears. Days later, Joan discovers the stranger is Liam Calloway—her new stepbrother. When Isobel begins destroying Joan's reputation, Liam proposes a fake relationship to protect her scholarship. Joan agrees, unaware that both Liam and his cold twin brother Nathan are connected to her tragic past. As Joan's memories slowly return, she uncovers shocking secrets: her stepmother murdered her mother, her father was killed on Gerald Calloway's orders, and Liam unknowingly drove the car involved in the fatal accident. Even more unbelievable, Joan learns she is the last descendant of two legendary wolf bloodlines, making both Calloway twins her fated mates and placing her above every Alpha in existence. With enemies closing in and betrayal surrounding her, Joan must awaken the powerful wolf hidden inside her, expose the truth, and decide whether love is stronger than revenge.

The night Phoebe Beckett planned to tell her Alpha husband she was finally pregnant was supposed to be the happiest night of her life. Instead, Kendrix Edison came home from war with another woman on his arm. Victoria Ford, his childhood friend and a respected warrior, was carrying his child. After five years of being mocked as a useless, wolf-less Luna for failing to give her Alpha an heir, Phoebe was prepared to fight for her marriage. Kendrix insisted he still loved her and promised Victoria would only give birth to the heir before the child was placed in Phoebe’s care. Then Phoebe told him she was pregnant too. He didn't believe her. That single moment was enough. Phoebe disappeared from the Edison Pack, taking the secret of her unborn child with her. Five years later, the woman everyone once pitied has become a formidable CEO, controlling a trading empire powerful enough to make Alphas come to her table. Then Kendrix meets her again. He doesn't recognize the wife he lost. He only knows that her presence unsettles his wolf, her eyes haunt him, and the little girl beside her looks far too much like him. For the first time, Kendrix wants something he cannot command. He wants Phoebe back. But Phoebe no longer needs an Alpha to give her a place in the world. And this time, she is the one who gets to decide whether he deserves a place in hers.

Vera died giving a man everything — her research, her loyalty, her son, her life — and he didn't even come to collect her body. Reborn a year into her own past, she wakes up with every memory of her murder intact and none of the poison yet in her veins. This time, she isn't spending another four years being grateful for scraps. She has a formula worth an empire, a husband who's already rehearsing his next wedding, and a dying father she never knew she had — the true Alpha of a bloodline everyone assumed was extinct. As Vera claims a birthright no one can deny and turns her ex-husband's every scheme back on him, she collides with Ronan, the most powerful Alpha on the Council and the one man who was never supposed to look at her twice — except he's her fated mate, and he has a betrayal of his own to settle. Together they're building something neither of them planned on. But the people Vera is about to destroy do not go quietly, and some memories are dangerous enough to get a person killed twice.

She died for him. Signed over her pack, trusted him completely — and he poisoned her at eighteen. Now she's back, reborn, and when he finally says "I've decided to accept your pursuit" — she looks him dead in the eye: "Your decision came too late."
