About this audiobook
She was rejected. Humiliated. Cast aside while carrying the child of the man who should have claimed her.
Alaia Thorncrest thought the worst pain of her life was hearing Kael Nightfang deny her before wolves who watched her heartbreak like entertainment. She was wrong. The true agony came after: raising their son alone in the shadows, hiding from enemies who would use his blood for power, and teaching herself to live without the man who shattered her.
But secrets never stay buried.
When fate forces Alaia and Kael back into each other’s orbit, the truth explodes between them. The child he never knew exists is no ordinary boy. Powerful, hunted, and born from a bloodline old enough to shake kingdoms, Soren becomes the center of a deadly war between rival packs, ancient claims, and ruthless wolves who will kill to control him. Now Kael wants what he once threw away. He wants his son. He wants Alaia. And this time, he is not the only dangerous man willing to fight for her.
Torn between the king who broke her and the alpha who chooses her without hesitation, Alaia must decide whether love can survive betrayal, whether desire is enough to rebuild trust, and whether the woman once rejected can rise powerful enough to make kings kneel.
Once Rejected, Twice Desired is a dark, addictive shifter romance filled with rejected-mate heartbreak, secret baby drama, dangerous alphas, sizzling tension, betrayal, and a heroine who refuses to be anyone’s weakness again.
If you love fierce heroines, powerful wolf kings, second-chance obsession, and high-stakes paranormal romance that keeps you turning pages late into the night, this is the book for you.
One rejection changed her life. Two powerful men will change her future. Start reading now.
