The Eclipse Bond

The execution blade was inches from Sera Venn’s throat when she tore free—and slammed straight into the arms of the one man she swore to kill. Kael Rusk, the deposed ruler who erased her past, pressed his hand to her neural shackle and gave her one choice: bind her life to his or die before sunrise. Now every wound, heartbeat, and lie passes between them. Sera needs Kael’s body to survive the kill clock, while Kael needs the condemned bio-forged fighter to reclaim his throne—but every memory she recovers reveals another reason to hate him. And whenever the truth gets close, Kael takes the lethal backlash meant for her, as something buried inside Sera begins to awaken beneath the city. The black core wants her alive—but will Sera trust the man who destroyed her past, or kill Kael and let the entire city wake to war?
