Lycan King's Rejected Second Chance Bookish Mate
(2026)(Book 81 in the Possessive Small Town Alpha Kings series)
A novel by JK Serena
My hot neighbor rescued me during my anxiety attack.
Now he’s telling me he’s a Lycan King, and I’m his fated mate.
I run a bookshop full of shirtless-cover romances. I never expected to be starring in one.
Thaddeus Blade towers over me, quiet, dangerous muscle, and he growls at any man who comes close.
Saved in my phone as HOT NEIGHBOR, DO NOT TEXT.
I text him anyway.
One coffee becomes every morning. My traitor lungs quit whenever he leans on my counter.
Then his wolf decides I belong to him, and a Lycan King is never supposed to want a human.
He kisses me like he means to ruin me, takes me apart slow until I’m begging, and leaves every rule I ever made in pieces.
Then he panics.
‘I don’t know how to stay without starting the clock,’ he tells me, as if loving me is a countdown to his own doom.
Then he stands in my kitchen and rejects me.
I survive it. I even start believing I can live without him.
Until the Lycan King shows up on his knees in the rain outside my shop, voice wrecked, groveling.
He can grovel all he wants, but I'm not falling for it.
NOTE: Spicy, funny small-town lycan romance with a bookshop owner and the Lycan King next door obsessed with her. Fated mates, human x lycan king, possessive hero, grovel. No cliffhanger, HEA. 18+. Interconnected standalone.
For best reading experience, read Book 1 first: Bookish Girl’s Emergency Contact Is a Lycan King.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
