Unscented

✨ Editor’s Crush — Reasons You’ll Love It

• A heroine who’s literally “unscented” in a world ruled by scent
  Emilia is half-witch, half-wolf; her witch mother hides her wolf scent and forbids her from going near any werewolves after being rejected and abandoned by Emilia’s Alpha father. So Emilia lives on the border of a werewolf pack, secretly knowing the school’s golden-boy Alpha is her fated mate… while he has no idea she even exists.
• Dark home life + high school drama = instant emotional hook
  Her mother drinks, screams, and hits; the bruises last even through wolf healing. At school, Emilia is misunderstood as a “drug addict” because she sometimes smells like alcohol from broken bottles at home, while she’s just trying to keep her head down and survive Willowbrook High, where wolves and humans mix and jocks rule everything.
• The painful thrill of a hidden fated-mate bond
  Wesley Bynes is the classic popular jock: pack Alpha, football captain, dating the sweet, beautiful head cheerleader. Emilia can smell him—ocean, mint, coffee—across a crowded hallway, but thanks to her hidden scent and her mother’s hatred of wolves, she keeps their bond buried and watches from the sidelines, aching and anonymous.
• If you love angsty, slow-burn werewolf romance…
  You get fated mates, secret identity, witch–wolf hybrid lore, bullying, trauma, and a girl who thinks she’s “stupid” and broken slowly realizing her own worth. It’s the kind of emotional, slightly messy, very bingeable drama that feels like a long-running TV series in book form.
