Sometimes the best knight is a damsel. In a world where women are seen as weak, defenceless creatures for men to protect and own, one orphan girl wants to be different. She dreams of being a knight.

On the night of her betrothal to a man over twice her age, the King's soldiers come to their tiny village, and in the chaotic aftermath she's left with a choice.

Flamebound: The Memory Keeper's Prophecy
In a realm scorched by legacy and ruled by fireborne bloodlines, Maeve-an unassuming outsider-finds herself marked by a glyph that binds her to Kaelen, the crown prince forged in flame. But their bond isn't just magical-it's ancestral, mythic, and dangerously prophetic. Thrust into a world of elemental trials, dragon-born archives, and court conspiracies, Maeve must navigate dreams haunted by ancient memory keepers and stand trial before rulers who fear what she represents: a living archive capable of rewriting their forgotten truths. Together, Maeve and Kaelen ignite a revolution not just of magic, but of remembrance-challenging a kingdom built on erasure and threatening to unravel the very fire that holds it together. This is not a love story. It's a reckoning.
