Rome’s dark passion. Connor’s innocence. Bastian’s betrayal. My vengeance. If the vampire court thought I’d be less of a threat like this, they were dead wrong. Because now I’m pissed. They turned me into a monster, bound my brother to the most vicious vampire in the clan, and tore away my last shred of hope. It’s too late to save myself. It’s too late to save Nathan. All that’s left is to make them pay for what they did to us.

Alpha Queen is the final book in the Claimed by Wolves series, a paranormal reverse-harem shifter romance. It contains cursing, violence, four growly alpha males, steamy sex, and a heroine who finds her strength in the midst of it all.

See this tattoo across my stomach? Yeah, the one with seven crazy runes. Ignore the pink one, that's Sarah. I love her, but she's not one of my four. That was a hard lesson to learn. I've met rune #1, and he wasn't at all what I'd expected. It wasn't love at first sight. Maybe hate at first sight. Pretty sure he hates my guts. But that's okay, maybe rune #2 will bring him around. This end of the world stuff is just getting started, and I have a feeling one of my very own sins is the one stirring the pot. The Incubus King, what sin might he be? Lust...my favorite one.

The first time I laid eyes on Lucas Hale—Lucifer—I should’ve turned and run the other way. But I didn’t. Instead, I agreed to work for him. I allowed myself to fall for him. I gave the Prince of Hell my heart…and now he’s taken it and disappeared.

I once was told vampires are immortal but not invincible. I’m about to find out how true that is. Thrust deep into the politics and intrigue of vampire society, I’m doing my best to keep my head above water and prove I belong here. But the threat from the shades is growing. Inside the castle walls, whispers, and stares follow me everywhere I go, and I'm pretty sure the king wants me dead. The three vampire men who saved my life are the only ones I trust. So why don’t they seem to trust themselves around me?

My vampire men and I are stronger together. At least, we’re supposed to be. The weird sisters got what they came for - a magical object that puts them one step closer to unleashing hell on earth. The cowardly king Carrick refuses to fight, which means it’s up to me and my men to stop them. But after the attack on the Penumbra, I’m not sure I can. Malcolm is missing, and without him by my side, nothing feels right. Somehow, these three lethally gorgeous vampire brothers have become like three parts of my soul, as necessary to my survival as the air I breathe.

Can this skeptical player let down his guard long enough to let love into his life, or is this forbidden romance a train wreck in the making? Ryan James doesn’t believe in love. It’s a truth he learned early in life. A truth he carried with him into adulthood. He broke his golden rule one time, but Myndi trampled all over his heart, cementing his belief that love is a lie and not worth the effort. Until Summer Petersen comes crashing into his world, threatening to knock down his walls with her tempting body and sunny, sweet personality.

Katherine lives in the shadows of her village. Injured as a child, she isn't a suitable match for marriage. So, instead, she dedicates herself to having some purpose in the town. Stitching people up after Gluttony has his way with them makes her realize she could be more of a solution than a problem. So she makes the trek up to his castle and offers him a deal he cannot refuse. Her blood, unlimited, if he will leave the rest of her town alone.

I've found my third, and he's definitely the sin of anger. Jet has some damn rage problems, but I guess that's to be expected from a dragon shifter. Am I ready to play with fire? You bet your ass I am. Derek, one of my sins, is making good work on stirring the pot. He's trying to rip open a hole to hell and he's gotten Luke on a leash to do just that. Don't worry, I have a plan. I just hope it doesn't get everybody killed.

They hurt me. They fought for me. They claimed my heart. And now it’s my turn to fight for them. I never meant to fall for the three men who were once my enemies. There was a time when I would’ve happily danced on their graves, but now I’ll sacrifice myself to the devil himself if it keeps them alive.

They lied to me. They used me. They almost broke me. But I won’t let them win. I should have known better than to trust the Reapers. Should’ve known better than to let myself feel anything for them. Beneath their possessive kisses and stolen moments lurked a dark secret—one that changes everything.

Seeing CoCo Becket for the first time made my heart start beating again. It changed everything. Before her, I had no purpose, no reason to live. She was the most beautiful woman I had ever met. I couldn't help but fantasize about kissing her plump lips or having those sky blue eyes staring back at mine, seeing beyond what I truly was. Broken and ashamed. My desire for her ran deep...deeper than I expected it to. She was a goddess, and I was simply caught up in her glow. I couldn't say no. Not to her kindness and not to my need to be near her.

I kept loving Holden Montgomery, even after he walked away, shattering my heart into a million pieces. Now after four years, he's back on my doorstep…pleading for forgiveness and my hand in marriage. He asked for time and I vowed to try, but now he was half a world away, deployed with the Marines. Tragedy strikes, causing Holden to return to me half the man he was before. Now I'll have to decide if it's worth risking my heart for a second time, or if our chance at happiness has passed.

My fourth is a freaking vampire? Xavier is cocky, overzealous, and way too hot for his own good. He’s just what I need to stop my nightmares from coming to fruition, except he's telling me that I'm not supposed to stop the future from happening. I'm supposed to fulfill a dark prophecy. One where I'm the Queen of Hell, turned into a vampire, and I save hell itself from being destroyed.

The moment I turned at the sound of her voice, my world shifted. Nervous, sweet, and completely off-limits, Harley Jacobs, was standing there, eyeing me with purpose. Once the fiery beauty claimed me, I didn't stand a chance. She became my siren, a constant that kept away my darkness. Gave me a shot at a beauty I'd never thought possible. The day I left her behind, my purpose was clear. Become the man worthy of her. Now, I'm back. The rebellious teenage bad-boy is long gone.
