The night the eclipse swallowed the moon, Selene Ashford stopped pretending she was ordinary.
For eighteen years, she buried what she was the shadows that gathered at her feet, the light that moved under her skin, the mother who disappeared into the dark when Selene was six years old. She survived by keeping quiet and staying invisible, cataloguing secrets in a rare books archive that held more answers than she was ever meant to find.
Then the eclipse returns. And everything she buried comes awake at once.
A vampire who has spent four centuries keeping people at arm's length. A wolf alpha whose loyalty to his pack wars with the pull of something older than territorial law. A scholar who has spent years recovering a truth so dangerous she stopped letting herself care about the people it affected. A Shadowborn the last of his kind who has been alone so long that the possibility of belonging has become harder to trust than any enemy.
They are her Eclipse Bond. And the ancient councils that have suppressed this magic for four hundred years will do anything to prevent it from completing.
Bound Beneath the Eclipse is a slow-burn poly paranormal romance about five people who have each learned, in different ways, to survive by staying apart and what it costs to choose each other instead. It is a story about the political machinery behind loneliness, the difference between protecting people and letting them in, and the kind of love that is built not in a single moment but in small, repeated acts of honesty across impossible circumstances.
No explicit content. Maximum tension. Fated mates, found family, and a bond that was never meant to be forgotten.
For readers of paranormal romance who want the slow burn to mean something.
