The Wolf King
Book one of Lauren Palphreyman's viral werewolf romantasy trilogy. Princess Aurora has spent her life as a doll to be seen and never heard, betrothed to a cruel man she doesn't love. On the eve of her wedding, she spares the life of a young wolf about to be killed in a fighting ring, an act of mercy that puts her directly in the path of Callum, the powerful alpha who kidnaps her, intending to trade her to the Wolf King for a ransom. Instead, Aurora finds herself living among the very wolves her kind has hunted for generations, and the line between enemy and something far more dangerous starts to blur. A forbidden-romance fantasy full of politics, shifter lore, and slow-burn tension.
