Mave Fortune: A Rejected Mates Story

Blackstone Academy. Book 1

By: Elizabeth Dear

Narrated by: Stefanie Kay, Neill Thorne

When my family left our small, ultra-conservative pack back in Utah to join a giant pack in Northwest Louisiana, I thought I'd be able to coast through my last year of high school in semi-anonymity, then get the f--k away from wolf pack politics and just live my life for awhile. But the Moon decided to prolong my torture by placing my fated mate in front of my face on my first day at Blackstone Academy. He's the Alpha's son and king of a school crawling with shifters, and it turns out he doesn't care to be saddled with a Moon-chosen mate who he thinks is a nobody omega wolf.

When he rejects me in front of every shifter in school, I vow to harden my heart, become impervious to the constant, deep hurt of the rejection, and figure out how to be the first wolf in known history to shake the taint of a rejected fated mate bond.

I'm also becoming closer to a new student - a smoking hot and intriguing human, who I can't manage to scare off even with the drama that surrounds me and the poisonous pack politics that I can't seem to escape. I can't even tell him what's really going on, but I think he's keeping secrets from me, too.

I'm Mave Fortune, and my mate threw me out like yesterday's garbage. But f--k that guy.

Note: This is a new adult, M/F stand-alone story with a HEA. Any future audiobooks in the series will feature other characters. Mave is intended for the 18+ crowd and contains foul language, some mild violence, and steamy scenes. If you're a fan of upper YA/NA, wolf shifters, academy romances, and all of the associated tropes, this audiobook is for you!

Great strong female but juvenile 3.5 stars

I love a strong female lead and this book has that. However the story was a little weak and juvenile. Knox rejecting a bond within a minute and not asking a single question is pretty hard to believe. I don’t regret listening to this book, but won’t listen to anymore in this series.

Regretful Rejected mate

This has turned into one of my go listens. The narration was good, and the story had its moments of what-the-f#*k. However, looking beyond that, it was awesome, and the fact that lead female was the strongest of the young adults. mouth watering

More!!!!!

Very well written and narrated. I normally don't do reviews but with this book it is completely worth the credit. I won't spoil it for you, but hot dang!

Love this!

I could not put this story down! It’s the perfect mix of strong female lead, rejected mate/bully angst, romance with sexy scenes and interesting plot. Absolutely entertaining. Also, did not seem too YA- the characters are mature due to how this world was created. Narration was good as well. Hope this author puts out more work on Audible!!

Very Entertaining

I enjoyed this book. It was not the typical story line of rejected mate which I found refreshing. I can’t wait for the second book
