The Keeper's Choice: Keeper of Shattered Time - Book One

By Murray Knight

A rogue tied to a relic. A secretive companion. A destiny she wants nothing to do with.

Kaela Thorne is a streetwise rogue with a sharp tongue, a stolen blade, and absolutely no time for destiny.
Raised in the back alleys of Impiria and hardened by plague, betrayal, and thievery, she's learned to trust no one-especially those who want something from her.

But when a simple job goes sideways and binds her to an ancient relic with a will of its own, Kaela becomes a target for powerful people with layered agendas-the kind who don't tolerate refusal. Purpose is suddenly forced upon her, and purpose is something she's never worn well.

To stay ahead of the hunters closing in, Kaela is thrown into an uneasy alliance with a mismatched group of allies, including Seren Vael-blind, secretive, unsettlingly steady, and much too compelling for Kaela's peace of mind. What begins as survival quickly tangles into something deeper, something far harder to outrun.

Sure, there are fights Kaela can win, lies she can tell, and storms she can weather...
but destiny?

That's the one thing she never stole, never wanted, and might lose everything to keep.

A tale of found family, slow-burn tension, ancient magic and dangerous choices, The Keeper's Choice begins the epic romantasy journey of the Keeper of Shattered Time.
