Skybound (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798248324101)

Friends since they were younglings, Riven and Evianna grew up side by side, two heirs bound by duty and a connection neither of them fully understood. But something fractured between them before they were old enough to name it. Words left unspoken. Feelings buried too deep. And when Riven left Draegon, silence stretched into years.

When he returns for Evianna's nameday celebration, nothing is as it once was.

A long-dormant bond awakens between them, ancient, powerful, and impossible to ignore. But before they can face what it means, Evianna is stolen from her home, taken by pirates wielding forbidden magic capable of shackling souls and draining life itself.

To save her, Riven must hunt a ruthless enemy across the sea and make an unthinkable sacrifice, because magic demands balance.

To restore what was stolen, one life must be bound to another. Shared fate. Shared death.

Bound by destiny but divided by choice, Riven must face the cruelest truth of all: loving someone with his entire soul does not guarantee being chosen in return.

The truest form of love is not possession, but the strength to release what you would bleed to keep.
