Bound by Scars & Secrets: Realms of Magic Book 1

by Sienna Archer

Overview

When magic is deadly, secrets are survival.

Seventeen-year-old Alathea has kept her sister safe and the forbidden magic in her veins controlled ever since their mothers fled. But when Alathea's sister disappears, a mage from the enemy realms outs Alathea's magic. On the run, Alathea receives an impossible offer from the mage: He and a terrifying sorceress will deliver Alathea to her sister if she crosses into their monster-reigned realm and accepts a magic destiny herself.

To get her sister back, Alathea will have to decide: Can she stop hiding and trust her enemies...or will the unraveling of long-held secrets lead her to an even deadlier fate?

Bound by Scars & Secrets is the first book in a Young Adult epic fantasy series with a slow burn queer love triangle, heart-pounding adventure, and unraveling family secrets. If you liked Throne of Glass, Shadow and Bone, or These Hollow Vows, you'll love this fast-paced, coming-of-age story by Sienna Archer.
