Secret Baby for the Alpha Prince

Forbidden Alpha Kings #31

by Elara Haze

“I could never be with an omega. She’s too weak to be Luna, to wear a crown. I could never marry her.”

After I find out I'm pregnant with his pup, the wolf prince says he’ll never marry me.

Kieran and I have been friends since childhood,
and I thought he felt the fiery, undeniable bond between us.
My heart is shattered.

So I run away to work as a maid.
I’m pregnant, and my only goal is to protect my unborn baby.

But my life is eviscerated again when I’m sold as a breeder to a vicious alpha.
There’s only one person I can call for help.

The brooding, sexy mass of muscle with green eyes that make my heart stutter.
Kieran, my mate, who’s arranged to be married to another woman.

He’s been hunting me down,
and he’s desperate to reclaim me.

“All these months we were apart, my mate, I waited for you. I looked for you. Even when I thought I hated you, I needed to be near you.”

He’s the alpha king’s heir, so I know I can never be good enough for him.
But I don’t know if I can resist the bond that’s flickering back to life between us.

Even worse…
I’m not sure I want to.

“I’m never letting you go again.”

this was atchually pretty good..I was surprised because some of these kind of books..aren't that good.. this was a short quick read...& i loved it!!! i was very happy that the separation wasn't that long..it was only a year ..and that both characters were celibate during the separation...I felt hooked on the story even when it was talking about the past bcuz I wanted to know how they got to where they were now..why did she run off ect..I was worried that I was going to read his pov and him be sleeping around with ow..I was so thankful that he wasn't. .cuz im sick of reading about manwhores ..and in my opinion with mates...even rejected ....second chances .it pisses me off big time if there sleeping around...it doesnt feel legit if there able to..but this mmc was amazing..I read a lot of secret baby tropes there my all time favorite..this one was perfectly done.. usually when the mates find out they had a baby...in some books the kids are barely spoken about on page...& i hate that...but this one was perfect...the way he couldn't put the baby down...kept cuddling the baby couldn't stop staring at her...held her during the night... was the sweetest 💗 thing I ever read..and I don't come across books that have much bonding with the child unless there older...so this author did really good with this part.

~ double virgins
~ childhood best friends
~ no actual rejection

This one is a little different than the rest, the h overhears the H and misunderstands him, runs away and shenanigans ensues. The H is an actual hero, all in with his fated mate despite pushback, I enjoyed this part. This story relies heavily on miscommunication and narration, I ended up skipping to get the the dialogue, but overall it was well written and I’ll check out other books by this author.

I didn't despise this book as much as I commonly do with these shifter books. Sure, there were technical issues, and sure, there were story issues, but overall it really wasn't that bad.

I did come across some almost obligatory missing quotation marks at one point. There were a couple other issues, but nothing too bad.

I wish there had been more character development and depth given. I didn't care enough about him when she misheard the conversation, so it didn't really bother me as much as it could have. There weren't any emotions felt at all.
This was just a light story that just felt flat for me.

What ever happened to De Luna? Weird loose end there.

As it is, I won't read this again and I would not recommend it to anyone.

Lettie has struggled all her life. She's been treated badly by everyone even her own family. Just when she thinks things will change her world is knocked upside down again. Now she has her baby to take care of and will do anything to keep them safe. Will she go back to the pack for help? Or will she find a way on her own?

This is a great story that will have you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. This is a well written and very entertaining story. Its a book that any book lover would enjoy.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Secret Baby for the Alpha Prince

They've been best friends their whole lives and on her 20th birthday they find they are fated mates. After an attempted coup, her being kidnapped and sold, then giving birth to his daughter, they have finally made it back together as a family. After his challenge for the throne and another attack they are formally mated and sit on the royal throne. Great fairytale.

I liked it

I liked this book. The characters were interesting. I really liked the backbone of the FL she really grew out of her shell. The ML was a keeper. He was fully committed to the FL the whole time and never changed. Loved it. Hated the miscommunication. But it was resolved. Loved the ending. Was powerful.

Allora il primo libro è stato stracarino lo consiglio, il secondo è iniziato bene ed è finito una 💩(non nel senso un bad ending però eh) mi ha fatto inca a bestia veramente soprattutto per il protagonista maschile inutile e imperdonabile e il finale super affrettato senza senso (come se l’autrice di punto in bianco si fosse stufata di scrivere 😤) che non ha chiarito nulla a parte che Magnus è un vero Ba$tardo e stella è una sottona atomica 🤯
Il terzo libro é carino ma niente di che.

•KieranXlettie ✨✨✨✨ stelline

•MagnusXstella ✨ stellina (solo per l’inizio che era promettente 😒)

Good read

I enjoyed that this book was a bit different than some in this trope. The heroine becomes strong in an organic way. Loved her development and arc. Her Prince isn't half bad either.

Love!

I devoured this book in one day. The author was able to throw in the baby trope and the miscommunication trope without making it frustrating like a lot of other authors do. Highly recommend reading this book! You won’t be disappointed!
