MOONBLOOD is VERY character / romance focused and there is a lot of descriptive spice in it. This book is fast-paced and meant to be an introduction to the MCs before the second book gets into their actual story. MOONBLOOD is Paranormal Romance, not Mystery or Romantasy. World building and pack dynamics coming in the next book. In MOONBLOOD, the romance IS the plot. Third-person POV. :)

A love written in the stars. A truth buried in shadows.

Falsely accused of a crime he would never commit, Alpha Alecksander Hale is stripped of his title, his home, and his legacy. With his pack stolen from him, and the real traitor in power, he vows to uncover the truth and return to MoonShadow to reclaim what is rightfully his.

But exile brings an unexpected twist—his fated mate. Torn between the overwhelming pull of their bond and the heavy responsibility still looming over him, Aleck must fight not only for justice but for the life—and love—he never thought he would have.

Selena Claire’s life is simple, safe, and entirely ordinary—until the day a magnetic stranger steps into her store and shatters everything she thought she knew. He claims to be a werewolf... and her fated mate.

Thrust into a hidden world of supernatural danger and ancient power, Selena must face a choice that could redefine her entire existence. Will she cling to the quiet life she’s built for herself, or risk everything for a love that feels written in the stars?

This standalone is the first installment of the MOONBLOOD duology, a spicy retelling of the love story between the Greek goddess of the moon, Selene, and her mortal lover, Endymion.
