Tales of Talero series Book 2 Bound by Hearts & Wings COVER REVEAL!
Being an Indie Author Beta Reviewer and being on some awesome ARC teams is something I hold so close to my heart. We get to help Indie Authors launch and share their books that we all know they have been working so hard on to write and promote.
Todays news comes from an author I have had the pleasure of being on her ARC team for the first book of this series. So when she sent out the email asking for some readers to share the BRAND NEW COVER REVEAL for the second book in the series I jumped on it immediately. I loved the first book Bound by Hearts & Stone. It was all the cozy monster romance I needed in a good book.
You can find more information of pre-orders and getting the first book through Laurens Instagram page that I will tag @laurenSanatra.auhor
So here is the cover revel for book two, in the Tales of Talero series, Bound by Hearts & Wings that is hopefully going to Come out in the Fall of THIS YEAR!!!!
“A hundred years ago, Talero burned.
The human king, driven by fear of magic and a bloodline not his own, unleashed the Purge—a brutal crusade to erase every nonhuman race. Genocide disguised as justice. The gargoyles fled to the Obsidian Mountains, believing themselves the only survivors. The rest of the surviving nonhumans were driven underground, abandoned, broken, and left to fade from memory.
To those left below, the only thing worse than the humans… were the gargoyles who left them behind.
Gea was born in that hollow space—half-Fae, half-human.
Marked by cruelty and hardened by survival, she’s one of the few brave enough to sneak aboveground, scavenging for the magic-infused medicine her people need to live, medicine now hoarded by the descendant of the very king who nearly wiped them out.
Onyx was never meant to lead.
Brash, blunt, all brawn and reckless pride Onyx has always let his fists speak louder than his words. He’s long made peace with that, until he’s offered one chance to prove he can be more. One chance to be more than muscle.
But when his raid collides with Gea’s mission, everything goes wrong. One misstep costs her people the supplies they need to survive.
An unknown connection sparks between them, one Onyx doesn’t have time to understand as he makes a split-second decision on the battlefield, throwing himself in front of the female warrior to shield her from certain death.
Gea should have left him behind. Instead, she drags the wounded gargoyle into the secret caverns no outsider was ever meant to see.
Wounded, outnumbered, and stripped of his usual bravado, Onyx is forced to rely on the very people he once believed extinct. And as he recovers, the fragile thread between him and Gea begins to twist into something deeper. Something neither of them planned.
Beneath the stone and humor, she sees a male yearning to be more than just a weapon. And Onyx sees Gea not only for her strength but also for her quiet softness, the silence she carries, and the hidden pain she masks as she tries to make up for what she believes she lacks.
But time is running out. The humans are gathering magic they were never meant to possess. A second raid may be the only hope to save the world below.
Gea and Onyx must fight side by side, but as blades are drawn and secrets unravel, a different battle takes hold. Loyalty against longing, fate against freedom.
Because falling for each other was never part of the plan.
Especially not when Onyx has someone else to save, a promise waiting back home, and a choice that could shatter everything he’s found with her.
Bound by Hearts & Wings tells the story of two souls who don’t quite fit the world’s mold, two hearts shaped by pain and loneliness. Despite their scars, they find the courage to face their pasts and step beyond the walls that have kept them apart. Together, they begin a journey to heal, to challenge what’s expected of them, and to build a future grounded in trust, hope, and a love that grows stronger with every step.
