Welcome to the world of SYNERGY in Faith E. Will's debut novel, What Fate Forbids, a coming-of-power YA fantasy that explores identity, choice, and the bonds that define us.
Fate gave Rhea no choice. Now she has one.
In a kingdom where powerful bonds between humans determine your worth, being chosen by Fate is everything. Seventeen-year-old Rhea Holloway has spent her whole life waiting to belong. But when that bond awakens, it isn't to another human. It's to a wild animal.
Marked as Wild-Threaded and feared for it, Rhea must hide Nandini, the fierce creature now tied to her soul. After a desperate act leaves blood on her hands, exile is their only choice. On the road, Rhea crosses paths with Tobin, an Independent with secrets of his own, and uncovers a dangerous truth: the Wild-Threaded are disappearing.
When a rival king offers her sanctuary, and a chance to destroy the system that rejected her, Rhea must decide what she's willing to become to protect Nandini and the bond they share.
