Bonded

In a world where sacred hounds choose their human partners, the unchosen are treated as broken, the Severed are feared, and the bonds between souls determine everything from social standing to military power.
But the Binding was never what the kingdoms believed it to be.
Across two nations consumed by war, forbidden bonds begin awakening between enemies. Ancient wardposts are failing. Buried prophecies are returning. Behind the black Threshold gate, a forgotten force is feeding on generations of violence, obedience, grief, and magical sacrifice.
As rulers compete to control the power behind the Binding, soldiers, scholars, commanders, outcasts, and bonded hounds must decide whether they will obey the destinies written for them or risk everything to create something new.
At the center of each story is an intense romance shaped by dangerous attraction, divided loyalties, forced proximity, emotional intimacy, and impossible choices. Fate may connect two souls, but it cannot create trust. It cannot demand love. It cannot decide who stays.
Filled with morally gray heroes, powerful heroines, intelligent enemies, ancient magic, political betrayal, battlefield danger, found family, and unforgettable hounds, The Threshold Cycle is an emotionally charged fantasy romance series about people who were used as weapons and chose to become something more.
Every bond carries a price.
Every kingdom protects a lie.
Every choice brings the Threshold closer.
What is fated begins.
What is chosen stays.
