My mate being murdered was the best thing to ever happen to me. My children are free of their controlling, abusive father, and even if I die alongside my mate, that's all that matters. I made sure they ran ahead of me, and my son is fast enough - I have to believe no one can catch him. Except, when I wake up after days of being unconscious, none of us are really free at all. We're with a pack of alphas in perilous mountains. They claim they saved our lives, and my son believes them, but I'm not so sure. He's the son of a dead Duke. A bargaining chip in the fight for his father's former seat. And me? I'm still an omega, and in this realm we're bought and sold like commodities. That was how I'd ended up the wife of a Duke to begin with. Can I trust the men who are protecting us, or have I ended up in a situation worse than my previous facade of mated bliss? This is the story of Maisie, the sister of Freya from the Frayed series. In Mated Bliss can be read independently from the Frayed series, but enjoyment will be heightened if you've read Freya's story. There will be heavy themes of spousal and child abuse, and possibly more warnings to come. The release date is not set in stone! The author hopes to release this book by the end of 2023.
