About Mother of Shadows: A Fated Mates High Fantasy Romance (The Chosen, Book 1) (Unabridged)

"It's not a story." With four words, Helena’s quiet life goes up in flames. When her childhood friend returns to tell her she is the prophesied ruler of the Chosen—those blessed with the gift of magic—there’s no avoiding her destiny. Suddenly, Helena is surrounded by a circle of protectors, each man having sworn their loyalty to her since her birth. All except for one: her Mate. It’s not enough that she simply learn how to use her magic and undergo a trial to prove her worth; in order to claim her title, Helena must also find the man who carries the other half of her soul. Exiled due to a past he had no part in, Von is the last man the Chosen expect Helena to select. Despite the protests, his soul calls to hers, and fate will not be denied. But finding each other is only the beginning because the prophecy stands, and not all is as it seems. There’s an enemy lurking within plain sight who will stop at nothing to destroy her. If you adore romantasies filled with fantastic magic, nail-biting suspense, characters that feel like your friends, diabolical villains, and a once-in-a-lifetime love that can save the world, this series is for you! Recommended for ages 18+ due to adult language, content, and scenes with graphic violence.
