Description

How do you fight for someone who won’t fight for himself? The man she loves is cursed to die while Zula is imprisoned—beside the man she’s sworn to marry. Zula is left powerless to intervene and Hekdan refuses to do what must be done to save his own life. Her only advantage is that Tadrakka is equally determined as her to save his brother despite their rivalry for her affection. But even if they can somehow escape their chains, they must overcome armies and the very will of a god to save Hekdan. Time is running out. And every moment that passes is one moment closer to the curse’s fulfillment. Cursebound is a 30,000 word novella in the Warlords of the Sandsea romance adventure series.
