Feral

When Paden vanished from her pack five years ago, most believed she was lost forever. Grief drove her into the wilderness after the deaths of her parents, and somewhere deep in the forests beyond Keystone territory she found an unexpected life among a wild wolf pack. There, far from the expectations and pressures of shifter society, she discovered something she had never known before: belonging. Among the wild wolves she met Silver—her mate, her partner, the center of a life built on instinct, freedom, and quiet devotion. Then Silver died. Unable to survive the loss, Paden’s spirit fractured. A powerful psychic defense—known only in ancient shifter lore as a grief guardian—rose within her mind, sealing away her wolf and trapping her between forms. Months later she was found dying of advanced moonsickness and brought back to the pack she once fled. Mila, Keystone’s healer, should have been the perfect person to save her. Instead, Mila is the last person Paden wants to face. Because Mila is Paden’s fated mate. But this is not a story about destiny conquering all. Paden cannot accept the bond. Her heart still belongs to someone else, and she refuses to replace the love she shared with Silver. For Mila, who has spent her life believing in the certainty of fated mates, the rejection shatters everything she thought she understood about love. Yet as Paden struggles to heal—physically, spiritually, and emotionally—something unexpected begins to grow between them. Not the instant, irresistible pull of a mystical bond. Something slower. Something chosen. Something real. Together they confront the grief guardian protecting Paden’s heart, the memory of the wolf she lost, and the terrifying possibility that love does not have to replace the past in order to move forward. As they rebuild Paden’s connection to herself and to the pack she once abandoned, they discover that the deepest wounds cannot be healed by destiny alone. They require courage. Honesty. And the willingness to love again, even when the heart is still scarred. Feral is a powerful paranormal romance about grief, healing, and the messy, beautiful truth that love after loss is never simple—but it can still be extraordinary.
