A comedy of errors, that offers second chances for first love in this BDSM Mafia, Reverse Harem Romance. In that moment of embarrassment, fear and dread, I do the unthinkable…….. I jump into the black clad stranger's arms, and kiss him with all the drama of a soap opera. Yes, I meant it to be for show to avoid my stalker, but .....Let’s just say it’s not all fake when I practically swoon like the well-to-do British lady I’m impersonating. “Renfield tricked me,” I pant, pointing my shaking finger at the obnoxious blonde man, literally crying, this is all so hysterical to him. “Dracula's spell is too powerful. I can't fight it, go! Go find Van Helsing!" How did this happen? Nicky! That’s right, this is all my orphan brother, Roman Nikolai Cross’ fault! Ever since that tweedle twap jerk named me after the bad luck stray cat outside our orphanage, there is no end to the comedy of errors that is my life. I was hoping to avoid the so tragic it’s funny or so funny it’s tragic stigma with my second chance on life, but no such luck with his latest shenanigans.

I was never a novel person. Honestly? I couldn’t care less about them. That is, until “Three Hearts, One Love”... the reverse harem novel that took over the world… shoved itself into my life. Everywhere I turned: malls, newsfeeds, radios, TVs… Even the old lady at the bus stop was raving about it. Out of pure annoyance… and a little curiosity… I bought a copy, planning to skim it just enough to say it was overrated. Big mistake. Huge. One minute I was rolling my eyes at the melodrama, the next I woke up inside the story — not as the beloved heroine, of course. No, fate made me Luna Graves: the pathetic and miserable, jealous best friend doomed to crash and burn spectacularly by the end of the novel. With no way out, I figured I'd play my part, die dramatically, and call it a day. But then something weird happened. Scenes shifted. Strangers walked onto the page. And the swoon-worthy male leads? They stopped chasing the heroine... and started chasing me. Me. The villain. This wasn’t in the script... and I was definitely not ready.

Tonight was the Luna ceremony of Michelle Wright, a pure Alpha descendant. The one who personally placed the Luna crown on her head was Ronan Black, the Alpha of the Sacred Wolf Pack, who had shared my bed for five years. And I, reduced to an Omega, stood like an abandoned spirit in the darkest corner of the altar. To humiliate me, Michelle poured the pure Alpha blood that symbolized honor straight over my body. She accused me of being consumed by jealousy, pointing to a wound she had cut with a silver blade. She even fabricated false evidence, claiming I had consorted with rogues and betrayed the pack. As the Stone of Reckoning displayed my name and the order of exile, and the crowd prepared to drag me away, I lifted my gaze. "Ronan, did you ever consider that your precious Luna might be a fraud who stole my bloodline and claimed it as her own?"

At first, I thought Cameron, my brother’s best friend would end up being my mate, but it wasn't just him but three other players on the Hockey team! Aimes Gresvenor, the captain of the team, wanted to have nothing to do with me, Elijah Stone, I wouldn’t know where he stands just yet, and Logan Price was my biggest bully, all because I disguised myself as a boy to be part of the team.  Now, they all want me! Kaiya disguised herself as her twin brother to be part of the hockey team, and that was where she met her mate, the hot biker boys of the hockey team. Now trapped in the game, love and romance, and at the point of losing everything. But the hockey boys wouldn’t stop craving for her.

She was the mate of a cruel Alpha —beaten, silenced, and stripped of her dignity. He was the newly crowned Alpha King —powerful, feared, and haunted by his own scars. Nikolai doesn’t believe in love, not after his first love dumped him for his brother. Zara has lost everything: her parents, her pride, and now her freedom. Being forced to serve the very mate who delights in her pain, and a best friend who would do anything to see her downfall. When fate draws the Alpha King to her pack, Nikolai never expects to find his true mate locked away in an abandoned shed, broken and bleeding. He swore he’d never let another woman close, and she swore the goddess had forgotten her, but destiny has other plans. The road ahead is brutal, the bond undeniable, but together, the crowned and the rejected will challenge fate itself.

When Thalia's summer fling turns into a supernatural bond, she is caught between two rival alpha werewolves - her professors. As danger lurks and secrets unfold, can their forbidden love prevail?
