Eleanor and Cathrine lead a simple enough life. They had a typical girl meets friend's sister love story. Eventually they marry and everything seems fine. Nine years into their relationship they start to have problems. They start to fight constantly. A fight leads to Cathrine going for a drive. When a driver runs a red light their lives are changed forever. Cathrine loses her memories of their entire life together. Will they be able to rebuild and fall back in love? Or will this be the breaking point? ************ I'm not great at writing descriptions. Never know what is too much to share and give away. I promise I'm a sort of decent writer. I was tired of not being able to find a mature girl love story. Not mature as in like having sex and that's it. But actual love and connection between two women that are able to work through their trials. But all that I've tried to read seem to be centered on high school (not that that's bad...I love me a good teen romance but at 29 I don't connect well with them), they don't feel real, and they are not written all that well... no offense to anyone. Also this is a first draft so I apologize now for any errors that may appear.

Edited by @KelseyDragon17 Anna lives in a world where by the time they turn eighteen, every man and woman must have a beast bond. Those of them left unbonded are cast out of the city, deemed violent and insane; for if even a rat will not lower itself to bond with you, you must be the lowest of the low. Anna has lived a simple, easy life as the part of one of the most powerful families in the land. Each member of her family had bonded mighty rare beasts, a sign of great power. It boosted them through society's ranks. Her father had bonded with one of the last of the unicorns. Her brother, a manticore. Her mother, a great eagle. Even her adopted sister bonded with a lion. But as her eighteenth birthday approaches, and with no beast having choose her, she must make a choice. Stay, and bring shame upon her and her family... Or leave the city on her own terms. Striking out across the Ashlands, Anna will discover an adventure she wasn't looking for, and a prophesy she has stumbled into the middle of. Can she bring two species who once slaughtered each other together to save themselves? Can she win this battle? Or the ones ahead? Highest Ranking #7 in Fantasy Featured August 18th

Dragons have roamed the kingdom of Thedia since the beginning of time, destroying towns and villages, stealing livestock, torching crops, and just wrecking havoc on the kingdom's people. After three hundred years, the then King Xavix decided it was time to put an end to their reign of terror, and he formed what is now known as the Dragon Hunters, an elite group of knights and noblemen - including Xavix himself - charged with protecting Thedia from the dragons, and killing any dragon that poses a threat to the kingdom. Now, ten centuries later, the Dragon Hunters still protect the kingdom from the dragons. The lands are flourishing, the livestock are thriving, the people are living peacefully in the many towns and villages of Thedia. It is a land of peace and sanctuary. There are 3 main concepts everyone in Thedia knows: 1. Only the strongest, bravest of men can become Dragon Hunters. 2. Dragons are the people of Thedia's biggest enemy. 3. Dragons are ruthless, dangerous creatures hell bent on destruction. But what happens when Thedia's princess, Raelynn, forms an an unbreakable bond with an injured dragon she discovered in the forest? Who can she trust with a secret as big as this? And most importantly, how can she prove to all of Thedia that everything they knew about dragons, was wrong?
