Summary

THE GIFTED CURSE Dreambound Mates • Book 3 A Hartley Realms Novel 🔥This book is available on Kindle Unlimited. She wakes with the memories of darkness still clinging to her skin. Celeste survived something that changed her—quietly, irrevocably. Her memories feel fractured, her instincts unfamiliar, and the invisible bond around her heart hums with a pull she doesn’t fully understand. Then he finds her. Vaelric is a vampire king with red eyes, a dangerous hunger, and a connection to her that never truly broke. Their history is tangled. Painful. Unfinished. And when he touches her again, it feels less like a choice and more like something inevitable resurfacing. He isn’t angry. That unsettles her more than fury ever could. As old bonds tighten and dormant power stirs, Celeste is forced to confront what she’s becoming—and why fate keeps drawing her back to the one man she should stay away from. Desire collides with guilt. Protection blurs into possession. And every glance, every touch, feels like it could either heal them… or ruin them both. Some bonds aren’t chosen. They awaken. Dreambound Mates: Book Three A slow-burn romantasy of fated attraction, dangerous devotion, and the kind of love that refuses to stay buried.
