For twenty years, I lived a life of pampered luxury, the cherished heiress of the powerful Harrison family defined by our sprawling Hamptons estate, my loving adoptive parents, and my intense, often unsettlingly devoted brother Julian. Then, a cold, thin file placed on my father's desk shattered everything. A hospital mix-up, two decades ago. The truth hit me like a physical blow, stealing my breath: the Maya Rodriguez on the report was me, and I was not a Harrison. The real heiress, Ava Sterling, was already on her way. My world collapsed into a gilded cage when Julian, the brother who claimed to love me obsessively, refused to let me leave, physically isolating me in their opulent New York penthouse. After a shocking car accident left him with severe amnesia, I was rendered invisible to him, a "troublesome housekeeper" at the mercy of his ruthless fiancée Olivia and the cunning Ava. They unleashed a torrent of brutal torment, from physical abuse and public humiliation to being framed for theft, culminating in Julian casually condemning me to a fate worse than death. How could the man who once fought for my affection now look through me with such blank, cold indifference? Every bruise, every psychological blow, amplified the crushing injustice of being treated as less than nothing, even as my connection to them had inadvertently saved Ava's life. Was there truly no escape from this nightmare, no recognition of the girl he once claimed was his? Just as despair threatened to swallow me whole, a glimmer of hope appeared in the kindness of an old friend, Noah. When they demanded my rare blood to save the very girl who tormented me, I seized my chance, offering my life force in exchange for absolute freedom. This was my final, desperate gamble: would this ultimate sacrifice allow me to finally disappear and rebuild a life far from the toxic Harrisons, or was I forever doomed to be their pawn?

Introduction

For twenty years, I lived a life of pampered luxury, the cherished heiress of the powerful Harrison family defined by our sprawling Hamptons estate, my loving adoptive parents, and my intense, often unsettlingly devoted brother Julian.

Then, a cold, thin file placed on my father's desk shattered everything. A hospital mix-up, two decades ago. The truth hit me like a physical blow, stealing my breath: the Maya Rodriguez on the report was me, and I was not a Harrison. The real heiress, Ava Sterling, was already on her way.

My world collapsed into a gilded cage when Julian, the brother who claimed to love me obsessively, refused to let me leave, physically isolating me in their opulent New York penthouse. After a shocking car accident left him with severe amnesia, I was rendered invisible to him, a "troublesome housekeeper" at the mercy of his ruthless fiancée Olivia and the cunning Ava. They unleashed a torrent of brutal torment, from physical abuse and public humiliation to being framed for theft, culminating in Julian casually condemning me to a fate worse than death.

How could the man who once fought for my affection now look through me with such blank, cold indifference? Every bruise, every psychological blow, amplified the crushing injustice of being treated as less than nothing, even as my connection to them had inadvertently saved Ava's life. Was there truly no escape from this nightmare, no recognition of the girl he once claimed was his?

Just as despair threatened to swallow me whole, a glimmer of hope appeared in the kindness of an old friend, Noah. When they demanded my rare blood to save the very girl who tormented me, I seized my chance, offering my life force in exchange for absolute freedom.

COALESCENCE OF THE FIVE SERIES BOOK ONE: THE 5-TIME REJECTED GAMMA & THE LYCAN KING BOOK TWO: THE ROGUES WHO WENT ROGUE BOOK THREE: THE INDOMITABLE HUNTRESS & THE HARDENED DUKE *** BOOK ONE: After being rejected by 5 mates, Gamma Lucianne pleaded with the Moon Goddess to spare her from any further mate-bonds. To her dismay, she is being bonded for the sixth time. What's worse is that her sixth-chance mate is the most powerful creature ruling over all werewolves and Lycans - the Lycan King himself. She is certain, dead certain, that a rejection would come sooner or later, though she hopes for it to be sooner. King Alexandar was ecstatic to meet his bonded mate, and couldn't thank their Goddess enough for gifting him someone so perfect. However, he soon realizes that this gift is reluctant to accept him, and more than willing to sever their bond. He tries to connect with her but she seems so far away. He is desperate to get intimate with her but she seems reluctant to open up to him. He tries to tell her that he is willing to commit to her for the rest of his life but she doesn't seem to believe him. He is pleading for a chance: a chance to get to know her; a chance to show her that he's different; and a chance to love her. But when not-so-subtle crushes, jealous suitors, self-entitled Queen-wannabes, an old flame, a silent protector and a past wedding engagement threaten to jeopardize their relationship, will Lucianne and Xandar still choose to be together? Is their love strong enough to overcome everything and everyone? Or will Lucianne resort to enduring a sixth rejection from the one person she thought she could entrust her heart with?
