(MENAFN- BookBuzz) Bestselling romance author Ivy Barrett unleashes a sizzling new tale of dominance, defiance, and desire in her latest release, Their Reluctant Mate (Stormy Night Publications, ISBN: 9798292488354). This stand-alone dark romance marks the beginning of the Rydarian Mates series, transporting readers into a world where fearsome shifters claim what is theirs—and fight to keep it.

From the very first page, Barrett plunges readers into the raw, unyielding world of Rydarian tradition, where Lexie is given as a mate to three powerful shifters. Stripped of control, punished for her defiance, and thrust into the center of the village’s gaze, Lexie quickly learns that public taming is only the beginning. The true storm awaits when her new mates claim her in private—and refuse to let her go.

This addictive mix of dark passion, paranormal intrigue, and high-stakes romance promises to captivate fans of paranormal shifters and intense alpha dynamics. With Barrett’s signature blend of sensuality and suspense, Their Reluctant Mate delivers an unforgettable start to a daring new series.

Publisher’s Note: Their Reluctant Mate is a stand-alone romance and the first in the Rydarian Mates series. The book contains spankings and rough, explicit scenes. If such material offends, this may not be the book for you.
