The Mate She Rejected (Rejected Lycan Rises)
She was born to inherit a powerful noble house, while he was born without the wolf that should have awakened within him. Neither expected the Moon Goddess to bind their futures together.
At sixteen, Tristan Blackwood has already learned that courage earns little respect when everyone believes he is wolfless. Although his skill with a bow has made him a promising hunter's apprentice, the people of Briarwick still regard him as a commoner who will never possess the strength or standing of a true werewolf.
When Tristan saves Lady Sylvia Nocturne from a bandit attack, he expects nothing more than acknowledgment that he did what any decent hunter should have done. Sylvia, however, awakens to a truth she never imagined possible: the wolfless young man who risked his life for her is the one fated mate the Moon Goddess has chosen for her.
Sylvia believes accepting the bond would draw Tristan into the deadly rivalries surrounding House Nocturne, yet protecting him requires hiding a truth his life was placed at risk to reveal. As repeated visits bring them closer, her growing affection collides with her certainty that a common hunter cannot survive within her world.
When fear finally forces Sylvia to choose between the mate she wants and the future she believes will keep him alive, she conceals her true feelings beneath cruelty and rejects Tristan as unworthy of standing beside her. The bond should break beneath her words, but the ancient power sleeping within Tristan refuses to yield, leaving Sylvia to face the consequences of wounding a mate who may be far more powerful than anyone realizes.
The Mate She Rejected is the first book in the Rejected Lycan Rises series, a romantic fantasy of hidden power, wounded trust, noble intrigue, and a rejected hunter whose worth was never determined by the wolf others believed he lacked.
