Direbound
About
Game of Thrones meets The Hunger Games in this spicy dark romantasy debut where humans and direwolves forge unbreakable bonds and fight for survival.
In the realm of Nocturna, perpetually at war, humans lucky enough to bond with powerful direwolves are forced into brutal gladiatorial battles. Only the victors earn the right to join the king's army as his elite warriors - the Bonded.
Meryn has never dreamed of being one of the bonded direwolf riders. She’s made peace with her life scraping by in poverty in the shadows of the castle. But when her sister is kidnapped by the enemy, Meryn joins the army to find her and forges a surprise bond with a savage direwolf, Anassa.
Thrust into the vicious competition, Meryn and her wolf must fight against the other Bonded who are eager to punish weakness - like Stark, the cruel and powerful alpha of their rival pack and his malicious wolf, who seems to be fixated on torturing Meryn.
And the target on Meryn’s back only grows as she gets closer to the Crown Prince - who vows to help her and protect her.
But the castle is hiding dark secrets, and the competition should be the least of Meryn’s worries…
