Tethered - Hardcover

by Jordan Mazzei (Author)

She was never meant to be found.

She was never meant to fall in love...

But fate had other plans for her.

Hidden away in the shadows of Silvaria, Fawn has spent her life in a cottage deep in the forest with her mother, tending to her garden and keeping to herself. But when her mother returns injured one night, Fawn must step into the city and experience the world beyond her home for the first time.

When the stoic Captain of the Guard crosses her path, Fawn's life changes forever. How can she ever go back to the quiet life she once knew?

Prophecy, love, and betrayal entwine, pulling her into a future she never imagined. With everything on the line, Fawn and her newfound chosen family discover that belonging and love might be worth rewriting the stars themselves.

In a world where prophecies decide all, can their love defy fate?
