Fleeing Fate
Lunar Eclipse Book One
Fiona Rowan
What if your fated mate is the villain of your story?
Emily Grant, a sweet omega, has little choice but to flee before her mate bond to the monstrous Alpha Aidan Blackwood is confirmed. But her escape doesn’t go smoothly and by the time she stumbles—injured and sick—into the Lunar Eclipse territory, she’s all out of options.
That’s when she meets Jackson Clark—the gruff, brooding delta responsible for pack security. He helps her, but he doesn’t trust her. Because Jackson has trauma of his own and trusting the damaged new girl his wolf pines for is something he’s not prepared for.
He watches her like a predator waiting for its prey to slip up. And yet… when he’s near, Emily’s wolf purrs instead of cowering. They can’t help being drawn to each other, no matter how hard they try to resist the pull.
Because Jackson’s touch lights a fire within Emily, making her feel things she thought she never could. With him, the scars of Emily’s past begin to fade.
But Emily’s past isn’t done with her.
The monster she fled is still hunting.
And when he finds her, no one will be safe.
Especially not Jackson.
