The Ember that Tethers by J. E. Storm
He is the villain of her story, but he may be the only one who can save it.
After betrayal shatters her world, Emmery is forced into an uneasy alliance with the manipulative, mad, and dangerously intoxicating King. He holds the answers to her past, the key to finding her soulmate, and the truth behind a prophecy tightening its grip on her future.
But the deeper she falls into his web of secrets, the more impossible it becomes to ignore the way he sees her.
And the way she’s beginning to see him.
As fate sharpens its blade and war looms on the horizon, Emmery must choose between the destiny written for her, or the villain who tempts her to rewrite it.
Across the divide, Vesper wrestles with unstable magic, a suffocating legacy, and a loss of all he’s fought for. Will it break him or forge him into something far more dangerous?
The Ember that Tethers is a slow-burn dark fantasy romance of prophecy, ruthless bonds, and enemies whose tension burns hotter than the coming war.
Descend into the dark. Just be careful whose hand you hold.
The Shattered Soul Series if for fans of Throne of Glass, Spark of the Everflame, with morally grey characters that rip your heart out, neck-snapping plot twists that will have you staring at the wall long after the last page, and a slow burn that will leave you aching.
