Carolina Patel has spent sixteen years making sure no warning goes unheard.

Now a gifted structural engineer with a rare werewolf sensitivity to vibration, Carolina returns to Alberta’s Blackglass Ridge to assess a controversial wind farm built across land claimed by two rival packs. She wants one thing: finish the job, protect her professional reputation, and leave pack politics behind.

Then she meets Parker Lynch.

Parker is Stonepine’s Alpha, disciplined, territorial, and trusted to put his pack before everything else. The instant he recognizes Carolina as his fated mate, instinct tells him to pull her close. Instead, one look at the Redwater-linked company on her credentials is enough for him to reject her in front of witnesses.

Carolina refuses to beg for a man who judged her before asking a single question.

But walking away from Parker becomes impossible when the ground beneath Blackglass begins to warn her.

A forgotten tailings dam is showing signs of failure, and if Carolina is right, both packs and nearby human communities could stand in the path of disaster. Stopping it may require access across hostile territory, cooperation between enemies, and trust between two mates who have every reason to resist each other.

For Parker, the woman he dismissed may be the one person capable of saving his people. For Carolina, being wanted after proving her worth may be harder to accept than being rejected.

Unwanted By The Alpha, His Hidden Genius Mate is an emotionally charged rejected-mate werewolf romance filled with fated-mate tension, rival-pack politics, a brilliant heroine, an Alpha forced to confront his own judgment, and a bond that means nothing without choice.

If you love wounded trust, earned respect, slow-burn desire, and an Alpha who must do far more than claim his mate, start reading today.
