Bound by Starlight

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. He's been calling to her in her dreams. She's the only one who can set him free—if she's willing to burn her mortal life to starlight. Lyra Aldaine's quiet world of dusty books and star charts shatters the night she steps through an abandoned observatory into the Aethelgard, a realm of obsidian halls and frozen constellations. There, chained in shadow, waits Kael—the star prince who has haunted her dreams for months. His jealous brother Thorne imprisoned him three centuries ago, feeding on his light to rule the mortal sky. Lyra is the last of the star-born bloodline, the only one who can break the chains. But the price is devastating: she must ignite the celestial fire sleeping in her veins and let it consume her human form entirely. Bound by a fated mates bond that hums between their souls, Lyra has three days to choose. Accept the transformation, become a being of pure starlight, and free the man she's falling for—or walk away and slowly go mad from the bond's unrelenting pull. Their stolen moments in the star-realm ignite a slow-burn, emotionally devastating romance as Kael shows her the memory of the first mortal he loved and lost to Thorne's cruelty. But when the ritual begins and her body starts to burn, Thorne arrives to destroy them both. Lyra's only chance is to complete her transformation mid-battle and unite her golden light with Kael's silver—a merged power that could defeat a god or consume them both. A breathtaking dark romantasy packed with fated mates, dream-visions, hidden heir, star-crossed lovers, touch-her-and-die devotion, a sacrificial transformation, and a hard-won HEA among the constellations. Perfect for fans of celestial romance, dark fantasy, and anyone who loves a story where the quietest mortal becomes the most powerful star in the sky. Listen now and be bound by starlight.
