Publisher Description
This Alpha's gonna take a bite out of his brother's fake fiancée.
Sheltered Lucia is determined to find a new life and love. No wonder she falls for the first guy to flash her a wolfish smile her first day in the big city. After rescuing the charming shifter from certain death, she's sure he feels the same way about her, and will tell her so — just as soon as he wakes up from his coma. To stay by her instalove’s side in the hospital, Lucia pretends she's his bonded mate. This twist of the truth takes a turn when she meets her fake fiancé’s sexy older brother and wonders if she was a bit too hasty in declaring love-at-first-sight the first time.
For months, Jackson has sensed that his fated mate was near. When he enters his brother's hospital room, he instantly pounces on the beautiful, curvaceous woman there. He’s ready to mark her as his own until he discovers his brother may have gotten there first. The more Jackson gets to know Lucia, the more his doubts about the engagement grow. She has nothing in common with his wayward, lone wolf brother. But she sure does check every one of Jackson's boxes.
Lucia longs to explore her feelings for Jackson, but how can she turn her back on the comatose wolf she lied about being engaged to? Jackson's fighting a losing battle with his wolf to claim the woman who should be his. When he finds proof that Lucia isn't who she claims to be, can he still trust her with his heart? And what will happen when his brother, her fake-mate, wakes up?

Customer Reviews
Good story
I enjoyed this fantasy theme, but I had to wonder if poor Lucia ever got any food 😄. Good to know Pierce will get his story in the next book.
Moonrise or…. is it?? 🤔
After reading the synopsis of the book I thought “That sounds just like the plot to the 1995 Sandra Bullock movie “While You Were Sleeping” -but with shifters added 😂 I happen to love that movie so I might very well read this book. I gotta say, the similarities between the 2 are numerous. Lucy/Lucia (Sandra) is a ticket taker for the subway which Peter/Pierce (Peter Gallagher) takes every day. She becomes enamored with him and dreams up a little fantasy life that they could have together. One day he’s late and missed the train, as he waits on the platform he’s approached and mugged and pushed off the platform onto the tracks. Lucy sees this and runs over to help, rolling him off the tracks just before the next train comes in. Skip ahead to his family gathering around him in his hospital bed while he’s in a coma and Lucy’s in the room too. Lucy’s talking to herself out loud and the family hears her as she says “I was going to marry him.” They automatically think not only did she save his life, but they’re engaged as well. His family is great and not only do they thank her profusely but start welcoming her into the family like the wedding already happened. The only person not there is Peter’s brother Jack/Jackson who is the only one suspicious when he meets Lucy. I don’t know the circumstances under how Lucia saved Pierce but even the names of the major players are similar here. It’ll be interesting to see how this story goes with a supernatural element blended into it as well. Looking forward to it and we’ll see if my split down the middle star ⭐️ rating for fairness will be edited or not.
Wonderful
I loved how it kept you wondering which brother she would be with.
