MOONLIGHT REBORN Synopsis Nova spent six years giving everything to a man who was counting down the days until she was disposable. She built the antidote that made Caden's empire. She raised his son — a child she didn't know belonged to another woman. She lived as Silver Moon's Luna, isolated, grateful, devoted — while her husband and his mistress Sable ran a parallel life behind her back and slowly poisoned her into an early grave. She died in a hospital bed at thirty-one. Caden didn't come to collect her body. Then she woke up. One year earlier. Healthy. Furious. And in possession of every memory of every move they made against her. But the reborn life comes with a revelation that changes everything — Nova was never Silver Moon's forgotten Omega. She is the stolen heir of Moonlight Pack, a bloodline blessed by the moon goddess, and her father has been searching for her for twenty years. Now Nova has one objective: take back everything that was built on her sacrifice, burn down what remains, and claim the life that was always hers. The only complication is Dominic — the most powerful Alpha alive. And the pull between them that neither of them asked for.

For three years, I loved Kyril Grant with everything I had. I endured the whispers, the humiliation, and the cold bed while he spent his nights with her…his chosen mate, the perfect she-wolf his pack adored.
