Book2 of The Defiant Mate.
Jay-la is banished by the future Alpha, Alpha Nathan of her pack, Blood Moon Pack, her lover for just over a year, for striking with claws out his newly found fated mate, told to never come back. Jay-la leaves as alpha ordered, not turned rogue only because he is not yet the Alpha in charge. When she asks her wolf Kora why she strikes the future Luna with claws out Kora responds, "to protect pup."
She returns to university to live on campus to finish her law degree, stays in the human world working as divorce lawyer, staying away from her pack, away from the future Luna who hates her and she knows would never tolerate her pups. A secret no one knows about.
Six years she has been away when she gets an official pack letter to return home, she burns it and defies the new Alpha in charge's order, Alpha Nathan, to come home.
He will bring her in no matter what. She will never go back. She will fight to stay in the human world, away from him and his Luna who would harm her children.
Confined to try and capture her in the human world, as she is well known to the humans around her and can not suddenly just go missing, can he bring her in and return her to his pack, to his side where she belongs?

Well it doesn't leave off where I'd prefer it too. I'm hoping she makes a 3rd book. I started reading or listening to it on audio in the Dreame app. I reckon I'm going to have to wait till it comes out on a hard copy. I will be purchasing the 1st book as well. ) One person found this helpful

Great but it should have been one book instead of 2. ) 5 people found this helpful

The whole crush the beta had on her should have been removed or fleshed out. She makes it seem like something was going to happen to where the 3 of them need to talk it out then all of a sudden there is a barely there mention that he has a mate. )

I love the narrator, but the female lead is giving me a headache. Very repetitive and immature. I do like the story line but it needs more substance other than repetitive thoughts over and over. I kept waiting for something else but it was just more of the same. ) 2 people found this helpful

It was a good story/series. However, it should have been a book 3 to close everything out. It left too many unanswered issues. Like what happened to Sophia, Ethan, and Stephen. Otherwise, good story. ) One person found this helpful
