Conduit Series by Meghan Ciana Doidge

On my way to investigate my aunt’s untimely death, I chance upon a teenager with purple eyes. Her destiny is so vibrant, so intertwined with the essence that fuels all our lives, that I cannot stand to see her caged and crushed. What I don’t know is that rescuing the teen isn’t chance or happenstance at all. It isn’t just another random bit of destiny I can fix. It’s a snag in the weave of the universe that unravels … everything. I am exactly who I am meant to be... moreOn my way to investigate my aunt’s untimely death, I chance upon a teenager with purple eyes. Her destiny is so vibrant, so intertwined with the essence that fuels all our lives, that I cannot stand to see her caged and crushed. What I don’t know is that rescuing the teen isn’t chance or happenstance at all. It isn’t just another random bit of destiny I can fix. It’s a snag in the weave of the universe that unravels … everything. I am exactly who I am meant to be. I belong to no one but the universe. My destiny was spun and measured before I was born. I never really had a choice. But the path that brought me to becoming the Conduit at least a century before my time has been manipulated. And along the way, I’ve somehow lost far more than I ever knew I had. Friends. Lovers. Soul-bound mates. More than just my life has been twisted, all our fates ripped away. And I remember none of it. Awry is the first book in the Conduit Series, which is a secondary-world urban fantasy romance. Content warnings and tropes/themes can be found at the beginning of the book or on the author’s website. less

I’ve awakened to find bits of my missing past — memories and bonds that I didn’t know had been torn from me — captured within photographs arrayed across the walls of the caretaker suite. Displayed for me to find them, to discover everything my aunt has actively hidden from me for over thirteen years. Secrets she’s taken with her into the After, leaving me all the power but none of the foundation I need to be the Conduit... moreI’ve awakened to find bits of my missing past — memories and bonds that I didn’t know had been torn from me — captured within photographs arrayed across the walls of the caretaker suite. Displayed for me to find them, to discover everything my aunt has actively hidden from me for over thirteen years. Secrets she’s taken with her into the After, leaving me all the power but none of the foundation I need to be the Conduit. Then I discover that my aunt’s secrets go beyond her betrayal, creating a systemic rot, an unraveling, that began before I was even born. The resulting ramifications weave together to unsettle, to overwrite, any attempt I could make to fortify the connection between me and my universe-promised mates. Without them, I’m unmoored. And unmoored, I cannot possibly wield all the power the world needs me to wield. That the universe needs me to wield. Jealousy, envy, grief … love? Only choice matters above all else. Just not for me. I move as the universe wills. Or I suffer the consequences.

The truth always comes to light, usually in the most inconvenient way. And some bonds transcend bloodlines. Ignoring the near-frantic promptings of the universe, I’ve allowed the person who was meant to be soul bound to me to drive me — quite literally — into a trap. Though I want to believe there’s the slightest of possibilities that he didn’t know who has ultimately set that trap. That he didn’t know he’s once again trading my life for the safety of his siblings... moreThe truth always comes to light, usually in the most inconvenient way. And some bonds transcend bloodlines. Ignoring the near-frantic promptings of the universe, I’ve allowed the person who was meant to be soul bound to me to drive me — quite literally — into a trap. Though I want to believe there’s the slightest of possibilities that he didn’t know who has ultimately set that trap. That he didn’t know he’s once again trading my life for the safety of his siblings. Because who would be capable of containing the Conduit? But even though I’ve died to protect Presh from her fate and would be willing to do so again, I’m not prepared to face the entity at the center of the worst trauma I’ve ever experienced. A trauma that reshaped the course of my childhood, that left me adrift in a world that only ever loved or feared me for my potential. Then the last of my aunt’s secrets unfold — all the choices she made decades before I was even born, all the fixes she tried to apply far too late. I unravel my past down to its rotten core. Yet I have no idea how to start weaving it all back together. I know now I will never be the person, the power, I was meant to be. That I’ll never regain everything I’ve lost. But in the end, I can refuse to have anything more taken from me. Even if I need to defy the universe to do it.
