Bound in Blood: A Paranormal Why Choose Romance

By Jesi Donovan

I was never supposed to matter. Just another null-blood foster kid waiting to disappear. Then the Ashworth Academy came for me.

Dragged through a portal and locked inside a school that trains monsters, I'm told I'm not powerless, I'm necessary. Four dangerously unstable students need an anchor. A stabilizer. Someone to bind them before they lose control.

Caine is a vampire who feeds on fear. Ronan hides his cruelty behind charm. Dagon is fire barely contained in human skin. Bastian wields shadows and secrets.

They don't want me. They don't trust me. But the bond doesn't care what any of us want.

If I fail, they burn the world down. If I succeed, I lose myself to four monsters who were never meant to love.

And if I try to run? Ashworth always collects its debts.

Bound by blood. Trapped by magic. Claimed by ruin.

Tropes: why choose, dark academy, forced proximity, enemies to lovers, morally gray heroes, slow burn, obsession
