Before the Bond Breaks by Lia Davis

Magicbound Protectors Book 1

My sisters and I are chasing a case of missing witches when everything shatters. One of my Valkyries turns up dead, her body marked with forbidden blood magic. The trail leads me to Briar Glen, where Talon Steele, the wolf alpha of a powerful, magical shifter clan, waits for me.

Our bond isn’t a choice. It’s a duty written in blood, magic, and fate. It’s the key to saving both our clans from unraveling. With shifters spiraling into feral madness and an ancient enemy forging an army of corrupted beasts, only our joined strength can stop him.

Talon needs me to stand at his side. I swore I would.

But Talon doesn’t just want my power or the bond. He wants all of me—heart, soul, and every part I’ve kept hidden behind walls I built the day I watched my mother die, betrayed by the man she loved. I promised myself I’d never make her mistake. I vowed to myself that love wasn’t worth the fall.

Yet every moment I spend with Talon threatens to break me open. Fighting at his side, feeling his fire in every bond-thread that ties us, I know I can’t keep him at arm’s length forever. The closer we come to stopping Balder and his monstrous army, the harder it becomes to protect the one thing I swore I’d never give away.

Because saving the world might cost me my heart, and Talon will never settle for duty alone.
