The moment I scent her, everything in me goes still.
Not because she’s beautiful—though she is. Not because she’s hurt—though the blood on her skin makes something savage in me rise.
But because that blood carries a truth she doesn’t She’s not human. And she’s mine.
She wakes afraid, confused, certain she’s just an ordinary woman who got caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. I wish she were. It would make protecting her easier. It would make walking away possible.
But nothing about her is ordinary—not her scent, not her presence, not the way my wolf reacts when she looks at me.
My pack feels it too. So do the ones hunting her.
Someone wants her dead because of a past she can’t remember, a bloodline she doesn’t know she carries, and a legacy that should have died generations ago.
I don’t know the full truth yet. I only know Whatever she is becoming, whoever she really is—I will protect her.
This volume contains all four books in the Fated to Royalty series, bundled together for ease and continuity. Whether you’re discovering the series for the first time or returning to read it straight through, this edition lets you enjoy the entire story without interruption.

I’ve read a lot of mated wolf fantasy books, so trust me when I say this one was a miss 🙄. I don’t know who thought combining the series was a good idea, but by 52% I was DONE.
It started with potential and then proceeded to give absolutely nothing. The plot was dragging, the excitement vanished, and even the spice was bland—which should honestly be a crime in this genre.
I kept waiting for something—anything—to happen, but halfway through the entire combined series, I realized the story wasn’t going anywhere. This was just a very long, pointless journey.
Book 1: I'm totally vested! This is a great book. It started out a little slow, but picked up and stayed at a pretty fast pace. I love the spice - I'd say it's a bit spicy, but I loved it and it wasn't too much at any point. I like the detail and the amount - good balance. I love the character development. Maddy is such a bada$$ and I'm here for it. I'm excited to learn more about her history other than she was adopted...let's find her mom and get into this! I can't wait to read the next book. Nico - I have to laugh, that's my daughter's name, but I love him - he's wise and older, but I didn't get to know him as well yet - hopefully in the next book, we will see more!
Book 2: Keep reading - I can't wait for the next one. This book really transitions well from the first book. It's like there wasn't a stop at all. I'm glad we are learning more about Maddy and her history. Nico is such a lovable "mate" and he's protective, but in a good way. Maddy is still a bada$$ and I continue to love her. Ray's writing is great - there are spots that are funny and there are so many little details that just pull you into the story. I really don't want this trilogy to end!
Book 3: OMG it seems like Maddy is pregnant forever, but I love the growth that they show during this book. Her and Nico are growing together more and more, there is less banter, but just a really genuine relationship material. This was a great series...there could be some spin off's with the other minor characters!
-M/F -HEA -Wiches, werewolves, -would read for free, wouldn't spend money on it.($)
When is picked up this series set I hadn't realized that I actually already read the first book and not continued. This time I saw it through to the end. The story was good enough to keep me pushing through but there were a lot of eye rolls and confusion along the way. It felt like someone went through and tweeked certain parts of the book to improve on it but didn't follow through entirely and left inconsistencies in its wake. Like when Nico wanted to send Maddie to the island, but somehow he ended up going too. And she was supposed to be this Alpha female who was really strong but ended up not involving herself like an alpha even in before she had good reason to step aside. Or Nico's opportunity to kill Viola that he literally just didn't take because he was worried about Maddie. The sex scenes were hot at first then just annoying later on. I almost never say too many bedroom scenes but they weren't about connection or growth they felt like plug and play sex scenes (hot ones) but it got old. Honestly there didn't seem to be a lot of growth or depth for most of the characters. Like Sebastian having a one night stand, then moving on to someone else for a fling only to feel really guilty later and be coocoo for coco puffs on the original person?? Who is not his mate to my understanding based on the way shifter dynamics were explained in the first book. There was no growth or understanding that I could see to show the evolution of those feelings. It just fell flat.
That's said, it WAS a good storyline if a little overly drawn out and dramatic. I don't regret reading it, but it was like a book and a half too long and left a lot of loose strings that could have easily been resolved (Maddie's bar, Maddie's parents are they staying with the pack?, Donetello like literally anything about this dude, the rest of the royal family (or are we assuming Viola was it?), How they got the witch's power, how will Maddie fit into the pack as an alpha female, etc....)
Prepare for an utterly consuming journey! This magnificent, complete book set is an absolute must-read for anyone who craves an engrossing, sprawling narrative but detests the agony of waiting for the next instalment. The only true drawback to this collection is the inevitable, bittersweet realisation that such a phenomenal saga must, eventually, conclude.
The core of this gripping story revolves around Maddy, a character burdened by her extremely rare status as the very last of her Werewolf line. This unique and isolated position places her in immediate, mortal danger, particularly from the ruthless and powerful Royals. Her life changes forever when she is rescued by the formidable Alpha Nico. However, this act of salvation is merely the beginning of their arduous fight. The political landscape soon deteriorates dramatically when the Royals mandate a decree: all shifters must be rounded up and held in designated quarantine camps. As Nico and Maddy courageously take a stand and fight tooth and nail against this Royal injustice, their nascent romantic bond deepens and their individual powers grow exponentially, forging them into an unstoppable force.
This stellar series masterfully delivers a powerful and complex blend of genres and emotions. Expect heart-pounding action sequences, high-stakes drama, moments of deep and palpable angst, a healthy dose of steamy spice, and a captivating romance that anchors the entire narrative. The story is populated with complex, fantastically well-developed characters who possess a magnetic quality that will keep you utterly captivated, long after the rational part of your brain insists you should have finally put the book down for the night.
This is a four book series in one amazing novel. I didn't want to stop reading! The storyline was so good and easy to follow. There's drama, danger, action, mystery, and lets not forget the spice. All things that have you hooked and wanting to read more. This series, literally, dug it's claws into me and held on tight to the very end. This series was absolute perfection and then some.
The series centers around Maddy and Nico. From the moment Nico's wolf scented Maddy blood, a human, he realizes she's his fated mate, everything changed. I loved his utter devotion to her, and that never once wavered. He had serious alpha male, touch-her-and-die vibes.😍😍 It was EVERYTHING! He was a strong who took care of his pack. When the world starts to turn against not just wolf shifters but all shifters he steps up and opens his land to all to help and protect who he can. Upon that, he's also helping Maddy figure out and become her true self. 🥰🥰
Seeing how Maddy was thrust into a whole new world of being fated to a Alpha wolf shifter and then learning she's more than what she thought she was was... 🤯🤯🤯 Yes, at some points it was kinda annoying to see her blame herself for everything but I couldn't blame her for that. I may have done the same in her situation. Now how all the pieces come together for her... chef’s kiss!! 🥰🥰
I can go on and on but I dont want to give it all away! I was on the edge of my seat till all was revealed. Fast paced when it needs to be yet so rich in details so all can be pictured easily! As adventurous and action-packed as it was, have those tissues ready. I highly recommend reading this book! 🥰🥰
Okay hang on get comfortable and cozy you going to be a while because you are going to want to stop until the last page has been turned. Nico sexy as all get out alpha who rescued Maddy who doesn’t really know who or what or how important she is, but she is the last direct decedent from the Royals, but the problem is we all know those in power are willing to give up that power to the rightful leader. So, the current Royals in power have rules in place that any & all shifters in America are to be detained, quarantined in camps where of course they are mistreated or taken advantage of for their animals or power. Nico and Maddy find themselves fighting together for shifters against the Royals so be prepared to scream at your book because trust me you will be yelling at them to run, to hide, to fight, and so much more so hang on get comfortable follow the battle because there is a battle but the questions are will they go against the Royals, will she come into her own, will they shifters realize they are stronger fighting/ working together than standing /fighting alone, is she the answer to the end of it all, and is there a happiness somewhere along the way for them?
This is a four book series in one amazing novel. This series, literally, dug it's claws into me and held tight to the very end. I love books that grip me like that, slaying me with how perfect the word mastery is within them. This series was absolutely that and then some.
This centers around Maddy and Nico. From the moment Nico's wolf scented Maddy, a human, realizing she was his fated mate, everything changed. I loved his utter devotion to her, and that never once wavered. He had serious alpha male, touch-her-and-die vibes. It was EVERYTHING!
Seeing how Maddy is thrust into this new world of being a fated mate and learning she's more than what she thought she was, how it all pieces together for her, it was done brilliantly. I was on the edge of my seat till all was revealed.
There's drama, there's danger, there's spice, there's action, all the things that compel you to read a novel. This series had that and more, and the way each novel was written and played out to the very end, it will live rent free in your head for a long time to come. I very highly recommend!
Undeniably His Mate is a captivating paranormal romance that delivers strong fated-mates energy, royal intrigue, and satisfying emotional depth. Roxie Ray creates a story that feels both powerful and romantic, pulling you in from the very beginning.
The hero is confident, protective, and undeniably alpha, while the heroine brings strength and heart to the bond they share. Their connection feels intense and inevitable, with the fated-mates element adding depth rather than rushing the romance. The pacing flows well, balancing romance, tension, and world-building in a way that keeps the pages turning.
I’d highly recommend this book to readers who enjoy paranormal romance with royalty, destined mates, and strong alpha heroes. If you love stories where fate, power, and love collide, this one is a fantastic read.

Wow! This series had my attention from the very first page, and I couldn’t put it down until I had finished it. Nico is the alpha who rescued Maddy who is the last of the direct line of a werewolf, and her life is in danger from the Royals. they rescue Maddy, but the leader of the Royals has made it that the shifters all over America, have to be detained and put into a quarantine camp. The story continues with Nico and Maddy fighting for the shifters against the Royals. This was a brilliant series, full of danger and lots of action and drama and of course the spice that keeps it all worthwhile. There is a happy ending, but they both have to go through the refiners fire before it all works out. I wished it had of gone on a little bit longer.

This is the complete collection (Fated Royalty: 3 books split to 4), so it’s a loooonnnggggg read….
- The Alpha’s Fated Encounter - Fated to Royalty - Fated to Her Alpha Protector - Fated to the Alpha Defender
Fated mates, secrets, romantic suspense, twists and turns. A sweet FMC who gets stronger as the story moves along. A protective/supportive MMC, the alpha of the Lorenzo pack, and an all round nice guy (when he wasn’t annoying). An epic tale of shifters, hybrids, rivalries, betrayals, powerful bloodlines, battles and an unbelievable history. A great cast of characters, but some very questionsable actions and decision-making made me wonder what was going through the author’s mind at times.

I really enjoyed this book for several reasons. First, Roxie Ray is one of my favorite authors. Second, I loved how well this power couple communicated with each other. They were so supportive of one another. Third I got so emotionally involved in the story that I found myself getting just as angry as the FMC was towards the antagonist who was relentless in her endeavors. And lastly I absolutely loved how the author really brought out the personality of the young witch. I laughed along with the characters as she described her idea of confetti popping each time a person tried to get past the magical ward around their pack land. I truly enjoyed this book. Oh and my favorite part was getting to binge read the entire series in one book.

I had to take a break halfway through. The continued portrayal of the shifters as under prepared, easily manipulated, and generally helpless got extremely annoying. I also had a problem with the world building that left the shifters with no organization bigger than small individual packs without any apparent political representation.
I read another hundred pages or so and there was just one annoying twist to many. I appreciate that the author let Maddy rant for a few paragraphs, but it wasn’t enough to keep me reading another 500 plus pages. I can only stomach so much doom, gloom, self doubt, and helplessness before I stop enjoying myself. Since I haven’t reached the final book in this collection yet, there’s got to be at least one more horrific twist. I’m getting off the ride now.
This book is quite the undertaking but because it is multiple books together it makes it worth it. If I had to read these separately, I think the cliffhangers would kill me! I love these characters and the continued development throughout the stories. I love these tropes with fated mates, she doesn’t know she’s magical, touch her and die. I could keep going. There are moments when you wish it would just hurry up and resolve but then something huge happens and you’re right back in. Definitely worth the read… just know that it is a long one.

I absolutely devoured this book from start to finish.
I appreciated the trigger warnings explaining some of the harder to read circumstances on the book without giving too much away. Mental health matters and authors who take care to list the warnings are amazing. (I have no trigger warnings but it’s nice to know ahead of time if I did!)
I love the way the story unfolds, the plot is smooth and the pacing is just right!
The characters are wonderfully written and the plot and storyline stays true to the characters and brings them to life for me!.

This is a bundled book that entails all of Maddie’s and Nico’s story. I love when all the books are combined like this especially with a story as captivating as this one. Maddie discovers she is a long lost dormant wolf of a powerful line, Nico is her fated mate who saves her and helps open her eyes to her new world. Roxie Ray always writes such detailed characters with such emotional depth. I loved how these two just embraced each other as they navigated the threats that surround them. Strong captivating story!.

I really enjoyed this series. It had a lot of twists and turns, surprises, intrigue, and very cool characters. I had fun trying to figure out what was going on and had to see what everyone had to face and overcome. The mystery and suspense in this story was amazing. I laughed, I sighed, I groaned and enjoyed it all. Very easy to get sucked into the story. Then Maddy and Nico discover trouble and band together with others to win the good fight and deal with the royals. I was rooting for them and just waiting to see what other surprises would pop up. Plus danger and battles show up as the series progresses. Just lots of fun to read and watch it all play out.
This is the entire series of this in one book! So you don’t have to go and get multiple to finish the story of Maddy and Nico! A girl that is “just a bar owner” and an alpha. There are twists involving dna testing and finding out she’s not just a bar owner. The connection felt when they first meet to their relationship blossoming. It was a wee bit slow when I started the read but I couldn’t put it down because I was so intrigued on what was going to happen next! I love Roxie Ray and Connor wait for the next read!.

If like me you get engrossed with a really great story then hate the wait for the next book then you will love this complete set , A heartbreaking ( at times ) full on action and romance with fantastic characters that will keep you reading long after you should be doing something else ( like sleeping ) Depending on the speed of your reading habits this is enough for a few weeks or even a couple of months of intense and very enjoyable fantasy The only thing I dislike about this is that it is finished.

I want to read this again for the first time! Reviewed in the United States on January 15, 2026 Roxie Ray has built a world I genuinely wish I could step into. The story is packed with action, layered with strong character development, and anchored by relationships that feel real. I connected deeply with the FMC, loved the MMC and his family/pack dynamic, and appreciated how accountability and trust are earned rather than assumed. Moments of vulnerability are treated with respect, and every character evolves in meaningful ways. I'm definitely looking for more in this universe!
I read this series years ago before it was bundled, and revisiting it reminded me why it stuck with me even when I couldn’t remember every detail. The relationship is intense without being toxic, and the slow reveal of who she really is kept me hooked. I liked that the danger comes from the world around them, not from unnecessary drama between the couple. If you enjoy fated mates, protective heroes, and a story that builds across multiple books, this bundle is a great way to read it straight through.
This bundle has the compjete Fated to Royalty series.
'Whatever she is becoming, whoever she really is—I will protect her.'
The characters were very complex and complicated and compelling and perfectly steamy together. Plot was intriguing and intense and well paced. World building was excellent and solidly drawn. Thoroughly enjoyed the series and highly recommend.
Grab a copy, kick back and enjoy!.

Wow—what can I say? This would make a brilliant movie… or two, or three! Nico and Maddy are absolutely captivating as a couple—the chemistry, the passion, it’s all there. Hats off to the author for crafting such a riveting plot. Just when you think you’ve got the storyline figured out, a twist sends you down an entirely new path. The narrative pulls you in with its dynamic plot, fascinating characters full of depth, and just the right amount of action and intrigue to keep you glued to the pages.

A lovely well written shifter romance, with wolf shifters, wonderful chemistry between the main characters (Maddy and Nico) which just grows over the four books, drama, action, secrets, betrayals, obstacles, shifter politics, heartbreak, love, romance and a HEA.
This is a great shifter romance spread over four books: 1. The Alpha's Fated Encounter 2. Fated to Royalty 3. Fated to Her Alpha Protector 4. Fated to the Alpha Defender

This is a cumulative book that has 3 books that were previously released and now have been switched to 4. They follow the FMC through a roller coaster of things most of which are listed in the trigger warnings which should not be ignored. This is a very long book to get through and in parts is difficult. I love the way Roxie Ray writes and develops her characters. I really enjoyed this read.

I'm reviewing just the book version, not the books themselves. The links all work. The formatting is wonderful. The ease of use is there as well. I enjoy getting a whole series in one omnibus. It makes it so much easier to keep going until the end of the whole story. This author group has never let me down with their stories and I expect this one to live up to that as well.

Nico and Maddy were amazing. I couldn’t put this down once I got started. This was filled with so much action and danger. It was chaos and romance. The twists and turns had me on the edge of my seat. It pulled me in from the very page. The world building was amazing. And it was so intense. If I could’ve read this in one sitting, I genuinely would’ve.
