I killed his best friend.
He killed mine.
Now, destiny’s made us soulmates.
Branded ‘soulless’ for my ability to harvest the energy left behind by death, I know how I’ll spend the rest of my short life: I’ll gather the souls my realm requires for the war effort, and I’ll take the brutal punishment my blasphemous job requires.
When a soulmate bond links me with the notoriously merciless enemy commander, Merrick, he crosses the river himself to claim me. And bring me back to his land, which runs on the power of tortured souls.
What I know to be impossible—I have no soul to mate with—my convent sees as another way to use me. They pack me off as a spy, with instructions to uncover the weapon they’re sure Commander Merrick is developing.
But the more I learn about Corvath, the less my own country’s story holds true. Everything I send back across the river becomes a weapon. Everything I keep becomes treason.
I came here to destroy the man who killed my best friend. I’m running out of time to decide if I still want to. And the bond that brought me here is already dying…
River of Souls is the first book in a heartrending romantasy trilogy, perfect for fans of Devney Perry’s Shield of Sparrows, Rachel Gillig’s The Knight and the Moth, and Danielle Jensen’s the Bridge Kingdom.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
