Thread and Stone - Paperback

Enslaved on an alien planet, Amara chooses vengeance over submission, but can she convince the alien king she saved to help her tear down the system that imprisoned her in the first place?

Amara:

It's been a year since I woke up in the bowels of this ruthless alien coliseum. A year since I've seen the sunrise or felt anything but jagged stone beneath my feet. A year spent patching wounds and setting bones for sedated gladiators I'll never speak to.

I tried to escape. It didn't work. So I've shifted my focus to revenge-to killing the Magistrate who's responsible for the slave ships and my current imprisonment.

But my plan isn't going the way I thought it would, and now I'm locked in a cell with a very large, very not-sedated gladiator. Don't get me wrong, he's surprisingly good company, but after learning who he really is, I'm not sure if trusting him will help my plan or end in disaster.

Vexar:

I came to the coliseum to complete a rite of passage and claim my throne. But the greed of those around me knows no bounds, and the Magistrate has no intention of letting me leave this place alive.

However, his plan has already failed. I am alive. My honor endures. And the Goddess of War has sent me a queen whose fire and rage shakes the very ground beneath my feet.

Amara has not only saved my life, she has awakened the ancient miracle of my people and unleashed a mating bond that has not been seen for generations. Her heart beats in my chest. Her emotions flood my mind. We are bound by fate. Tethered together by something as ancient as the stone around us. She is the Queen I have waited for, and with her by my side, we can restore hope to my people.

I just pray she will accept me and our bond. If she does not, I fear we may not survive this place.

Thread and Stone is a fated mates, forced proximity, sci-fi romance filled with rebellion, revenge, and an impossible bond that changes everything.
