Ryan
I had given up on having a future, but one breath of her scent changed everything. Maya Moore is mine. I don’t care if she’s my therapist, and she says it can’t happen. She doesn’t understand that Fate has made us inevitable. She doesn’t know that I’m an apex predator or that she has become my prey. I’ll keep to the shadows until I find a way to catch her and make her mine. And when I discover she’s a member of an exclusive club, where identities are hidden, and desires are indulged, it seems Fate hasn’t forsaken me after all.
Maya
I’ve spent my life in control. There’s never been a soul I felt safe enough to let in. So why am I now drawn to two different men? The dangerously attractive client I’m ethically bound to refuse, and the mysterious masked man who fulfills my every fantasy but keeps his identity a closely guarded secret.
Why am I so drawn to them both when I already know I can’t have either? Not when there are so many secrets I’m carrying and when being with me could lead to disastrous consequences.

4.75 ⭐️ Thanks to Fiona Rowan for the ARC - I was so excited to get my hands on this book! I loved the premise and the tropes and the book definitely did not disappoint! In Fleeing Fate (Book 1), Emily is running from her fated mate, Aidan Blackwood, alpha of the Blood Moon pack. Emily nearly dies several times as she’s trying to get away from him, but eventually she begins to see a therapist and starts to unpack all the trauma she's been through. This is the first time we meet Maya, her...

🐺 I received an ARC of this ebook from the author 🐺 If you enjoyed the other Lunar Eclipse books, you'll likely enjoy this one, too. Do check the content warnings, because there's a significant amount of spice, and it's very kink-forward (at least as much as Unwanted Fate, if not more so). Does Ryan give off serious red flag energy? Yes. Did I still want to see him get it together and earn his happily ever after? Absolutely. Maya ended up really growing on me. Having only known *of* her in...

This is my FAVORITE Lunar Eclipse book… not just because EVERYTHING I wanted to happen happened, but because I LOVE these characters and the bit of dark romance sprinkled in. SO SO SO Good. I’ll be reading EVERYTHING Fiona Rowan ever writes. 🤷♀️ )

Have you ever seriously contemplated using a “sick” day to call into work so you can stay home and finish devouring a book?

The healing and self discovery every single character...
