Ephemeral
Book One of the Shadow Bound Series
Illyana was not born powerless. She was made that way.
The choice of who she wanted to be, and who she could ever become, was taken from her before she even knew it belonged to her. On the night her life was sealed away, her power was buried with it, and the truth of what she was became someone else's secret.
Now her home is gone, her family is shattered, and the world waiting beyond the ashes is hungry, merciless, and already reaching for what is left of her.
Everyone wants something from her: her devotion, her obedience, her power, and her silence.
But buried things have a way of dragging themselves back out, and when Illyana begins to remember, the question is no longer whether she will survive, but what she will become when she learns what was taken from her.
