Rejected Bonds Saga #3

His Forgotten Bond Baby

Rate this book
My brother is in a coma.

And standing next to me, outside that hospital room, is the Alpha I once abandoned—while he was still asleep.

He wasn’t just my first crush.
He was my first love.
My first time.
And the first person I ever ran away from.

I thought I’d outrun our past. I thought I’d erased every possible reason for us to ever cross paths again.

But here he is, looking me dead in the eye, saying, “Marry me.”

He has to be insane.
Or maybe I am… because I’m actually considering it.


But reality stopped playing fair a long time ago.
And as I look at my brother lying in that hospital bed, I realize something—maybe a little madness is exactly what it takes to survive.

He broke her heart. She kept his secret. Now fate won’t let them walk away.

Lia (h) ran from the only man she’s ever loved after one unforgettable night left her with more than just heartbreak. Years later, she’s forced to return to the world she escaped to protect the pack, the company, and Caelen, the child Ronan (h) doesn’t know exists. Stepping into power means facing her fated mate, the Alpha who once rejected her, and marrying him for political survival.

Ronan never forgot Lia. Not her fire, not the night she walked out, and definitely not the way she still haunts his every move. When she returns as his mate and his new wife, all his rules start to crack. But trust was broken, and neither of them is ready to face the truth that binds them. Until secrets unravel, enemies close in, and a little boy with his eyes changes everything.

With betrayal inside their walls and war on the horizon, Lia and Ronan must confront everything they buried: pain, desire, and the bond that never broke. It’s not just about power anymore. It’s about choosing each other when everything is on the line. And learning what it means to stay.

Lia grows from a guarded and determined young woman into a confident leader who learns to balance vulnerability with strength. Ronan transforms from a stoic and emotionally distant Alpha into someone capable of deep love, trust, and emotional accountability. Their relationship evolves from mutual resentment and power struggles into a deeply bonded partnership built on honesty, forgiveness, and the choice to fight for each other.

A steamy, wolf shifter, enemies to lovers, fated mates, secret baby, marriage of convenience, second chance romance, exploring love, sacrifice, identity, self-worth, power, politics, trust, betrayal, family, loyalty, healing, forgiveness, fate, choice, resilience, and growth.

This was a touching and slightly heartbreaking romance. The shifter part isn't a big focus. It's the changes, attitudes, family, and choices. A worthy read.

Ronan and Lia. Ronan is her brother, Dominic’s, best friend. When she always sees Ronan he takes her breath away. He’s the Alpha of his pack. And he’s player who doesn’t believe in mates and love. And he treats he like a sister. Something she doesn’t want to be. She’s about to leave for college so she pours out her heart to him and he says that’s cute. Finally 18 and she and her friend, Lucian return from a party and she goes home to hear her father talking to an Elder about bartering her off to an old alpha before she got older. WTF. Her father said she would not be going to school she will fulfill her purpose. She ran from the house. If she was going to be sold then she was going to have a say in who her first was. She went to Ronan. She kissed him he kissed back. He took her like the player is was. They fell asleep. Her wolf whispered mate. His words about marriage being political came back to her and she left. Would he care? Her brother was sending her away as not to have their father trap her. So her new life has began. Freshman year and there’s two pink lines. Her brother visits and Caelan is a few months old. Uncle Dom. She’s an intern in law and Caelan is five. Then she got the phone call that shattered her world. Her brother, in a coma, Ronan with him. Returned to the pack. Left Caelan with Lucian. The company investors needed to see that the packs were still one. The stock was plummeting. The solution, show the investors the packs are still united. Ronan gets what he wants a political marriage, one of unity.
This is a great read. Full of testosterone fueled wolf elders. A bitter ex. A marriage built on politics but full of feelings denied. A son revealed and an alpha who’s not letting his family go. Chaotic events that try to tear the packs apart and two wolves married and having to come together to keep everything from crumbling. Love doesn’t make you weak it makes you stronger than you ever imagined.
Well written with amazing charecters all around and a very mature adorable five year old.

Just when she gets the courage to confront her crush, she has to leave. But she's not alone.
He thinks that their one night was better behind them
When she has to return home, she's determined to do what she has to for the pack, but she still has a secret.

Doing the right thing is harder than she thinks when her secret comes out.
Now the truth is out, he's fighting even harder.

This is a second chance fated mates surprise baby werewolf romance. Two fated mates come together for one night not knowing where things will take them. One leaves the other stays to help run two businesses with his best friend and packs. One of the friends, became alpha after the death of his father. The other became an alpha as well. When one of the alpha’s are attacked by a rogue he goes into a coma. His sister is called home to run the pack and business.

The one night she shared with her fated, he knows but she does not, left her a surprise. Her best friend, Lucien, has stayed by her side all these years. She left him in charge of her child. Things are chaotic. Missing children, bad business practices, investors leaving or threatening to leave, her brother in a coma. They need a plan and quick! They marry for political reasons. It is to be that only, no emotional entanglements.

He has too many exes. They want to see the marriage fail so they can replace her. They will go to many lengths to ensure they occur. Meanwhile, Ronan is floundering; he is out of his element. He is falling hard and fast and has no clue how to do this thing. Lia also runs from relationships based on her family’s past. Being in love is not enough. She wants to continue to run even when things are going right. Even when all the secrets are gone.

What will happen to the business’, her brother, her child, her best friend, her fated, and her?
What choices will be made when things are done? When trouble turns into life and death
choices. Will love find a way? So many obstacles to overcome. Will they be able to move past
them and learn what they should do together? Another great story~

I like this book really well and I like the characters absolutely fell in love, and I like that the alpha over the years changes his attitude and admits that he was wrong.

Too many errors

I liked the first third of this story, but then came all of the errors. It was as if it was written half by a human and half by AI or the author wrote it in pieces but forgot what they put where, especially the ending.
