The Black Swan's Bond
Book One of the Law Keepers Chronicles
When the goddess of chains takes notice of a broken soul, mercy and destiny intertwine.
In the snowbound town of Eola, mercenary Balgair Moeldr seeks nothing more than a quiet reprieve from the wars that scarred his body and soul. But when he saves Heather, a desperate woman fleeing from the man who enslaved her, he finds his fate bound once again by divine law. Heather is no ordinary runaway-she bears the unseen mark of Ananke, Mistress of Chains, whose will reshapes the lives of all she touches.
As Heather learns to trust the goddess's whisper and the man who shelters her, she becomes entangled in a world where mortal bonds are sacred covenants and love itself is a form of law. Balgair, torn between his oath to Ananke and his growing affection for Heather, must face the truth: even in a land of gods, mercy carries a cost.
In the frozen stillness of Eola, a storm gathers. Shadows rise from ancient prisons, goddesses stir from silence, and the bonds between the living and the divine are tested to breaking. When duty and desire collide, Heather and Balgair must decide whether their bond is a blessing-or a sentence handed down by the gods themselves.
The Black Swan's Bond is a tale of redemption and divine consequence, of love forged through pain and faith tempered by fire. It is the story of how one man, one woman, and one goddess change the fate of Crann Na Beatha forever.
