Branded an Omega and condemned by the Highblood court, Maren expects monsters beyond the border. Instead, she finds Rhior, Kael, Talen, and Dagen: four lethal, possessive Alphas bound to an ancient wilderness that remembers every oath, every betrayal, and somehow remembers her. The deeper Maren is pulled into their world, the more her scent changes, the more the forest wakes beneath her skin, and the harder it becomes to tell whether she is their captive, their mate, or the reckoning the court should have feared from the start.
But the people who offered her up are still hunting, and the Thorned Forest is hiding far more than teeth and desire. Buried gods stir. Old lies crack open. Blood-soaked rituals and royal secrets tighten around Maren even as her bond with the pack turns hot, savage, and impossible to resist. To survive, she must trust the four Alphas who could destroy her, claim the power calling her name, and decide whether she will kneel—or make the whole world bleed for what it tried to bury.
Claiming Thorns is a dark, spicy omegaverse reverse harem paranormal romance with fated-mate energy, possessive Alphas, ancient magic, deadly secrets, and a heroine who stops running and starts hunting.
