The Cursed Bond. The Cursed Bond, #1

"The bond that should never have been formed. has awakened again." Lena Aristen has spent her life hiding in the quiet village of Eryndale, healing others and fearing the magic that once destroyed her bloodline. But when she saves a wounded stranger in the forest, her fate is sealed. Kael Dra'venn is no ordinary man-he's the fallen prince of the Shadow Realm, cursed to carry a dark power that hungers for her soul.
When their blood mingles, an ancient symbol ignites, binding them in a forbidden link older than any kingdom. Now hunted by both humans and creatures of the dark, Lena and Kael must flee across a world where love is treason and magic is death. As their connection deepens, they discover that their bond is not only desire-it is prophecy. Legends whisper of two souls destined to reunite the realms. or destroy them. Torn between fear and passion, duty and fate, Lena must decide: will she break the curse that binds them-or surrender to the fire that could consume them both? The Forbidden Link is the breathtaking first book in The Cursed Bond Saga-a romantasy filled with forbidden love, dark magic, and the price of destiny.
Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Jennifer L. Armentrout, and Carissa Broadbent.
