Caged in Velvet: A Paranormal Why Choose Romance
(2026)(The second book in the Academy of Ruin series)
A novel by Jesi Donovan
Ashworth Academy tightened the leash. And this time, they went for my heart.
I was never meant to be more than a stabilizer, an anchor for four monsters the Covenant can’t control. But after I broke a bond that should’ve been unbreakable, the Council decided I was too dangerous to trust.
So they put me in a cage. Severed from my bonded. Locked in isolation. Stripped of the only thing keeping my power, and my sanity, intact.
Caine’s cold restraint is gone. Ronan’s careful masks are cracking. Dagon’s fire is burning out of control. Bastian’s shadows are hunting answers I’m not sure I want.
The Covenant wants obedience. The Council wants a weapon. And my enemies want me broken before I can choose who I become.
They caged the girl. They unleashed the Binder.
Tropes: dark academy romance, reverse harem, enforced separation, slow burn, obsession, political intrigue, touch-her-and-die energy, morally gray heroes
Complete trilogy!
Genre: Paranormal Romance
