Trinket

Found as a small child outside a remote enclave, and left to fend for herself as a foundling, Theia has survived in a dying world on the edge of war--and something far worse. She built a life from crumbs, always careful in who she trusted and who she loved.

Until she was lured to the Churn by the people she trusted most. Now her soul is bound to a man she's never met and may never find.

Shattered, humilated, and broken, she flees to the distant city of Haven to find a ship to take her across the Vast Dark. But before she even makes it to the docks, she catches the eye of Haven's most powerful residents.

They offer her a choice that isn't a choice at imprisonment for the crime of existing, or to entertain them as their newest pet...

Trinket is a slow-burn romantasy for fans of deceitful gods, broken worlds, and no one being who they think they are. Rated '1/5 - Glimpses and kisses' for steam/spice/heat level.
