Marked by Moonlight (Mateless Shifters Book 1)

Wolf shifters are cursed with a broken mating bond. For centuries, this bond helped them find their mates, but it has stopped working. Without it, the packs are slowly dying off, growing smaller and weaker as their powers diminish. The protagonist's pack caused the curse, and she believes a prophecy marks her as the one destined to break it. Before she can act on this destiny, she is attacked by her best friend, who has recently gained his wolf form—unlike her, who remains wolf-less. The Bloodmoon alpha rescues her, but she soon realizes this is no rescue at all. She is the Bloodmoon's offering. Each month, wolves gather to find their mates through offerings of females from each pack. If an alpha feels the mating bond with an offered female, he marks her as his mate. But being marked by an alpha who is not your true mate means death. With this deadly stakes, the protagonist must survive while the prophecy's unclear words offer little assurance of breaking the curse. Marked by Moonlight is the first book in a dark wolf shifter romance series set in a world containing wolf shifters, vampires, witches, and magic.
