Unclaimed Mate (Their Spirit Healer Mate Trilogy Book 1)

I have a secret that can shatter spirits. Literally. Running from a past stained with blood, I have three goals: survive senior year, earn my way to college, and repay the man who saved my life. All I have to do is keep my head down as a temporary member of the Hawkins Pack and prove I'm worth keeping around. Simple, right? Wrong. The moment I lock eyes with Elijah Shepherd, the Pack's future Beta, the walls I've carefully built around my heart come crashing down. He's gentle, thoughtful, everything I've been searching for, until I see the darkness lurking beneath his perfect smile. He draws me in with soft words, then pushes me away with cold cruelty. I can't figure out which version of him is real. Then Sawyer Hawkins storms into my life. Arrogant. Magnetic. The future Alpha sees straight through every lie I've told and when he looks at me with those infuriating eyes, something inside me awakens. One wants my heart. The other wants to break it. And both of them are pulling me apart. But my quiet life in Hawkins Town is already unraveling. A video from my past has surfaced, and the dangerous men I escaped are closing in. My magic, the curse that has caused me so much trouble, is slipping out of my control. The closer my mates get, the more they see the monster I'm hiding. I never asked for one fated mate, let alone two. Now I'm caught between them while enemies circle and my secrets threaten to destroy everyone I'm starting to care about. Some hearts are meant to be claimed by more than one soul. Some pasts refuse to stay buried. And some secrets are deadly enough to shatter everything. Unclaimed Mate is the first book in Their Spirit Healer Mate series, a slow-burn YA reverse harem paranormal romance featuring hidden powers, enemies-to-lovers tension, a broody Alpha, a morally grey Beta, fated mates, and a heroine fighting to control the magic that could save or destroy them all. Reader note: Clare's story is a why-choose romance with four love interests (including FF romance). Not all mates appear in Book 1. Her harem builds throughout the series. View Less
