The Tyrant Alpha's Rejected Mate

This book is exactly as advertised, hitting on all of the mainstream tropes in this type of story and a lot of loose threads left at the end.
It was great for my reading streak since I kinda get overwhelmed when I start a big book and feel like I'm moving really slowly through it, so picking up something fast-paced and quick that I can read in 1 or 2 sittings works great to fend off a reading slump. 

Una has suffered an injury to her leg which places her in the “weak” category in this society. Una goes into heat and recognizes the Alpha as her mate. He does not and publicly rejects her. It was bad. He leans into the weak trope heavily to justify the fact that she can't be his mate. Until he figures out how wrong he has always been. There was a lot of groveling. Most of the book is about Una going into heat and Killian groveling. They don't even like each other and it was hard to imagine the endgame for them. Like we know and expect it to happen, but I wasn't sure if Una was going to be all in or was just her wolf.

I don't know... By the end it worked for me.

I really, really liked it until about 75% of the way through. The resolution if the conflict felt very deus ex machina, and very rushed.

I loved how the author wrote our disabled heroine, the world building was solid, and most importantly for me I really liked how scenes “felt.” The traumatic incidents the heroine went through were so well described I really felt for her, and felt like I was experiencing it alongside her.

I thought the ending was rushed, the couple needed more time to develop their chemistry. It really didn't ever feel like the heroine came close to forgiving the hero, until all of the sudden she just did. It felt very jarring and the depth of emotion wasn't up to the same level as was shown by the author in the first half. I think ill try something else by this author, because she really had me by the heart for a minute.
