When 22-year-old Kendall joins a prison pen pal program, she doesn't expect much. Definitely not Nick-sharp, magnetic, and serving time for a violent domestic case.
What starts as letters becomes something more. Deeper. Riskier. The kind of connection that blurs logic and makes distance feel unbearable.
When Nick is released, Kendall leaves everything behind to be with him. But the life she steps into isn't what she imagined. Love begins to look like control, and devotion comes with rules.
Tethered by Ink and Bone is a dark, psychological romance about isolation, obsession, and the quiet ways someone can rewrite your future while calling it love.

Through Her Eyes
I didn't set out to write a love story. Not the kind with flowers and sunshine. I wrote about obsession-the kind that wraps around your ribs and breathes for you. This is the story of Sae Williams, a woman sculpted from power and perfection, who finds herself-mud-splattered, furious, and beautifully unraveling-in the middle of a forest she never meant to walk through. And there, like fate playing a wicked trick, she sees Jane. A girl who should've been forgettable. But wasn't. This isn't about good or bad. This isn't even about right or wrong. It's about what happens when control meets chaos. When silk meets soil. When a woman who's never needed anyone becomes addicted to one girl's smile-so much that even reality becomes optional. If you've ever been haunted by someone's laugh, someone's scent, someone's existence... If you've ever loved so hard it bordered on madness- This story is yours too.
