Controlling the wolf inside is never guaranteed… I know that now.

My whole life I thought my biggest obstacle was dating the son of the sheriff—the one person in town my parents hate more than anyone. But I never imagined that my eighteenth birthday would bring something bigger—something dangerous. At eighteen, I finally know the family secret… I’m a werewolf. And my boyfriend? He’s our rival pack’s next alpha… and my fated mate.

But it’s too late.

Connor broke up with me “to keep me safe,” but from what? Now that I’m a wolf shifter too, he’s changed his mind and wants me back. But can I really trust the boy who broke my heart just weeks ago?

And if I do, can our forbidden love actually be enough to conquer the family feud between our rival packs and finally bring peace to our town?

Facing betrayals from close friends, rescuing loved ones who’ve been taken, and fighting against the family feud of a lifetime, Connor and Tala must decide: family or fate?

Fate’s Rebellion is the first book of a young adult paranormal romance trilogy with fated mates, forbidden love, and second chance romance tropes. It is inspired by Twilight and Romeo and Juliet and is told in first person, present tense with dual point of view (alternating chapters between male and female characters). Each book of the trilogy follows a new couple of the same friend group, with books one and two being male/female relationships and book three being female/female. Beware that certain scenes may be triggering to some readers for some violence.

Review of Fate’s Rebellion

An action-packed and well-paced story that draws you into the drama. The world-building is well done. The characters, with the exception of the teenagers, are filled with hate and revenge. I understand that since Tala and Connor are trying to stop the war building between the two wolf packs. Instead of being plucked into their existing love story, I wish I could have gotten a better feel for how their story unfolds. The build-up of Rue and Seth’s story is leading us into book two so I feel more connected to them. This book ends on a cliffhanger – I do like the books I read to wrap up. But, as I said, it’s leading into book two… Overall it’s a quick and good read.

About the Author

Whitney Morsillo is a New England transplant living in the Tennessee mountains and writes YA paranormal romance. She has a Master’s in Creative Writing and believes books are crucial to survival in this wild world because “whether life is good or shit-tastic, you deserve an escape to beautiful men and to run with the wind in your fur… or hair.” When she isn’t writing swoon worthy, morally grey men who find their sassy fated mates to be their greatest strength—and infuriating weakness or beautiful villains with tragic pasts, she looks forward to the changing leaves of autumn, drinks way too much Earl Grey tea, and reads her children Harry Potter while sneaking in some steamy reads after bedtime.

Tell Us About a Day in Your Writing Life

— This question made me laugh, so I had to pick it. I’m a freelance editor, a book coach for authors, and a stay-at-home mom. A day in my life is busy and hectic. I have five kids, three of whom are stepsons who visit during Christmas and the summer. My daughter is in first grade, and my baby just turned one. Ideally, a day in my writing life is waking up at 7 am to take my daughter to school, and making coffee and breakfast while taking care of the baby and dog. Then, I sit in my makeshift office, a spot on the couch with my laptop on an end table and a Bluetooth keyboard in my lap. The baby plays with toys or crawls into my lap to mash some keys. Sometimes he’ll bring me a book to read to him.

And that’s just the morning…

We have lunch, then nap time, where I lay down with him and write on my phone. I usually get two hours to write in peace before snack time. I make a note where I left off with ideas for the next day, and then everyone comes home from work and school. Next up: homework helper, dinner cook, and bedtime routine provider. I usually read before bed to replenish my creative well! Sometimes I’m exhausted and pass out. Some days, I don’t get much writing done because I’m so tapped out and end up reading during nap time. Or the baby doesn’t want to sleep and he fights me until he crashes way past the normal time, which leads him to stay up later that night and me to sacrifice sleep. Teething babies who like nap strikes are no joke, so I emphasize with my fellow mom writers.
