Bonds of the Forgotten

IN A WORLD WHERE POWER IS EVERYTHING AND LIES RUN DEEP,
Selene Caldrith has lived her entire life on Grimwick Island - a prison created for power-wielding criminals and their families. Exiled by a government that sees them as nothing but filth, she's learned to survive by never letting anyone see her weaknesses.
But when a new law is passed allowing the criminals' children to return to the mainland for military training, Selene finds herself in the eye of a storm.

The Legion - the elite force that controls the mainland - needs more soldiers. Assigned to a Sentinel who loathes her and her mother having been the leader of the First Rebellion, Selene becomes a target in more ways than one.

Caught in a deadly web of secrets and the whispers of rebellion, Selene must decide whether to conform to the system that seeks to control her - or risk everything to tear it down.
To save a nation on the brink of collapse, she might have to become the very monster everyone already thinks her to be.
