“You’re a joke,” Ethan sneered. “You thought you could be my girlfriend? My Luna? You? Get real, Aria. You’re nothing—and you always will be.”
Humiliated and rejected by my fated mate, I nearly let the ocean swallow me whole. Instead, the Moon Goddess bound me to someone even worse—Lucas Russo. Hockey captain. Billionaire playboy. Alpha rival. My unwanted second-chance mate.
Lucas is grumpy, arrogant, and impossible to read. I’m sunshine compared to his storm—at least, that’s what my friends say. But neither of us cares. What we want is revenge.
“Let’s fake date,” he said. “Just for this cruise. Long enough to humiliate Ethan and Vanessa. Don’t worry—I’m not interested in love.”
I should have said no. But every fake kiss, every staged touch, every enemies-to-lovers spark burn hotter than the last. My wolf aches for him, my heart fears him, and the line between fake and real is disappearing fast.
Now I’m trapped between the Alpha who destroyed me… and the grumpy hockey Alpha who could either save me—or break me all over again.
🔥Perfect for fans of fake dating romance, grumpy-sunshine chemistry, second chance, rejected mates, and unputdownable werewolf shifter sagas.
