My Alpha Next Door
Mariah Elena Rivera has been living a lie for eight months. Her werewolf boyfriend Ethan claimed she was his fated mate, she agreed rather than break his heart...even though she's human and can't feel the mate bond he describes. Their relationship is comfortable, safe, and built on the biggest lie of her life.
Then Rain Cross moves in next door.
The disgraced NHL superstar is Chicago's newest Blackhawk, traded after destroying his career in Toronto through spectacular self-sabotage. He's gorgeous, broken, and hiding secrets darker than his reputation suggests. He's also a powerful alpha werewolf whose wolf recognizes Mariah as his true mate the instant he catches her scent.
One night of explosive passion destroys everything Mariah thought she knew about love, desire, and destiny. But Ethan isn't surrendering his "mate" without a fight, and in the werewolf world, false claims have deadly consequences.
