Souls in Ruin
Book One of the Soulbound Series
A marriage forged in blood. A kingdom bathed in silence. And a princess whose soul refuses to shatter.
When Princess Mireille is wed to a foreign king with cold eyes and colder intentions, she expects distance, perhaps cruelty, not chains. Kept imprisoned within her own kingdom’s walls, she learns her father’s past sins are not easily buried.
But neither is she.
As her world twists into something unrecognizable, Mireille finds herself caught between two powerful beings—one who wants her obedience, and one who wants what little soul she has left.
Yet, Mireille was not born to kneel.
Souls in Ruin is the first book in a dark fantasy romance series about survival, obsession, and the quiet fury of a woman who refuses to be forgotten. For readers who love myth-drenched romance, morally dark men, and heroines who rise from ruin.
Author's Note: Not for the faint of heart—this book includes themes of psychological horror, trauma, and emotional manipulation. Reader discretion advised. Please find the complete list of content warnings on the author's website.
