Duty comes before love . . . or does it? Bryn has been thrust into the center of attention—and danger—as the heir to the Mir throne. She struggles with placing duty above love, as the entire Baer kingdom must reckon with Rangar’s wrath at her decision. But winter brings a shocking tragedy that forces Bryn and Rangar apart. As he denies vicious accusations, Bryn must disguise herself as a commoner and flee the Baersladen, posing as newlyweds with Valenden for protection. Bryn and Rangar’s paths return them separately to Castle Mir: one as a prisoner, one as a queen, on a collision course to overthrow the usurper Captain Carr and win back her kingdom. SCARBOUND is Book Two in the Kindle Vella sensation beginning with SCARLIGHT--now available as an ebook and in paperback!

I devoured this book in a single afternoon—I just couldn’t wait for the next ARC! (I’ll be posting about the whole series on my bookstagram soon.) Evie has a way of pulling you so deep into her stories that putting the book down feels impossible. Every book in this series has been a ride, but this one? It consumed me. I’m still not over what happened in the first act—WHY, EVIE, WHY?! The twists, the tension, the absolute heartbreak—I felt everything.
But what I love most is how much Bryn has grown since book one. Her journey has been so satisfying to witness, and it’s no surprise—Evie writes FMC character development so well. She doesn’t just create strong heroines; she crafts layered, complex, and deeply human ones. Pair that with the masterful political intrigue woven throughout the book, and you get a story that’s equal parts thrilling and emotional.
Evie is truly one of the reasons I adore romantasy. She never fails to deliver, and I already know I’ll be thinking about this book for a long time.
