Soulbound
by Sam Castell
FREEBIE
Young Adult
Rating: 5.0
Soulmates. Do you believe in the existence of them? After reading hundreds of books, I was determined that they were purely fictional. While I did believe two people could be in love, I thought that eventually the blissful state that being in love brought would vanish. “I love you, but I’m not in love with you,” was totally a thing.
Humans were innately selfish. Which to me meant that no true sacrifice was selfless. And love was all about sacrifice. When the time came to test my theory, it was on the very soulmate I never thought existed. Yet, he was real and very much in love with me. Would I allow someone to prove me wrong? #ad
