Best Coming Of Age Books

My best friend, Sabrina Reeves, hates children. She wants a child of her own, but she doesn't want to give birth to her own child. So, she sought me out and asked me to help give birth to a child for her. She even claimed that her child would be my child, and that they'd take care of me when I grew old. I thought she was crazy. Also, I warned her that it was illegal to find a surrogate mother in our country. Out of fury, Sabrina cut off all ties with me and called me a shameless wretch. "It's just giving birth to a child! I can do that too!" But Sabrina started smoking, drinking, and bar-hopping a lot. She could never get pregnant no matter what. After that, her husband brought his mistress and illegitimate child home before kicking Sabrina out. "Even a hen is capable of laying eggs! I've married you for so long, yet you can't even get pregnant! You really are a loser! "I never said anything about you wanting your best friend to give birth to my child! But you can't even get that done! Isn't this all your fault?" Sabrina pinned the blame on me. She slashed my stomach open repeatedly with a blade. Just like that, I died from the sheer pain. When I open my eyes again, I've returned to the day Sabrina asks me to help give birth to a child for her.

“Luna Selene is gone,” he said. “Until she is found, the pack must not panic. Morale must not break. Our enemies must not sense weakness.” “I—I understand.” His eyes darkened. “No. You don’t.” He studied my face like he was memorising it. “You will take her place.” The world tilted. “What?” “You will act as Luna.” My breath stuttered. “That’s impossible. I I’m just—” “A substitute,” he finished. “Exactly.” My chest tightened. I was no one here. An omega. A giirl; who avoided being noticed. “I can’t do that,” I whispered. “Yes,” he murmured, stepping closer, voice dangerous silk. “You can. And you will. I will protect you,” he added softly. “But from this moment on, you belong to me.” Aria has always lived in the shadows — unnoticed and unremarkable, surviving in a world that rewards power and punishes weakness.

Kieran, the Alpha of Crescent Stone, searches tirelessly for the woman he believes is his fated mate. Aria is meant to be nothing more than a placeholder, a lie to protect the pack from panic. Yet the closer she stands to him, the more his control falters, and the more the Moon seems determined to bend fate in her favour In a world of rival packs, buried secrets, and whispered prophecies, Aria’s presence sets events in motion no one could have predicted. One girl, a stand-in for a missing Luna, may hold the key to unravelling a legacy of loyalty, betrayal, and love — whether the packs survive it, or fall, remains to be seen.
