He rejected me, and then he realized I’m the center of his world. Bummer. Una I keep my head down. In this backwards pack, females rank low, and my bad leg makes me damaged goods. It doesn’t help that I’ve never shifted. I don’t mind the late twenties single life, though. No one’s paying any attention as I build an illicit farmer’s market empire. My roomies and I are doing it for ourselves, and if life under Killian Kelly is stifling, at least it’s predictable. We can deal. But when biology finally kicks in, I lose my mind. I claim our alpha as my mate. And he rejects me in front of the whole pack. It’s all good. It only hurts when I breathe. I’ll survive. That’s what I do. Who wants an arrogant jerk for a mate, anyway? I’ve got a business to run. Killian To lead this pack out of the dark ages, I’ve had to be hard. Merciless. I don’t flinch, and I don’t make mistakes. Una Hayes isn’t my mate. My wolf might have some kind of strange infatuation, but if she were mine, I’d know it. And I can walk away, can’t I? And if I keep coming back? If she starts living in my head? I’m the strongest male in five generations. My pack scrambles to do my bidding. I can bring one quiet female back in line. No one can possibly be as stubborn as I am. There’s no way I’ve ruined the best thing that’s ever happened to me. I’m the Quarry pack alpha. I don’t lose. The Tyrant Alpha’s Rejected Mate is a full-grown shifter romance. No cheating. HEA guaranteed. Intended for adult readers only.

- this was a weird book: a bad first half but then it got better. Interesting premise, very uninteresting male hero: Killian sucked, for most of the book
- I like "I will do anything for you", will work for it, 'guy falls first' kind of guys
- he does eventually acknowledge that Una has power over him, and he becomes more like ^that, AFTER the wise woman tells him that they're mates
- the whole childhood trauma element was confusing? They both repressed this memory? And it was a denial of their mate bond? A potion?
- Killian was a tyrant, a meathead, boring-- why root for him? He was better by the end, and listening more to Una
- Una was a capable, strong main female character, who had interests and personality and courage
- the setting of oppression was quite heavy, more than I had expected
- the setup of mates who sleep around / make other arrangements was interesting, but it lessens the 'value' of your true mate?
- Una still feels somewhat pulled toward Killian, and still finds herself attracted-- was the bond really 'removed'?
- Killian needed to grovel more
