A cursed noblewoman. A mercenary caught in the fallout. A journey that will change them both.
At a midsummer ball turned magical catastrophe, a scholarly noblewoman called Isolde is leytouched – marked by ancient, unpredictable magic. Forced to leave everything behind, she has to travel to an ancient temple called the Nexus, where a mysterious ritual might cure her of this so-called curse. But the more Isolde learns about her magic, the more she wonders if it is a curse at all.
Felix, a fiercely independent mercenary with a sharp axe and a sharper tongue, is hired to escort her through the wilderness. He resigns himself to the burden of a spoiled princess, but soon discovers Isolde is anything but.
Pursued by those who would see Isolde dead rather than risk her power unleashed, Isolde, Felix and their unlikely group of allies must navigate treacherous terrain, clashing opinions, half-truths about the history of the leytouched… and sparks of a very different kind of magic growing between them. Somewhere down the line, Isolde will have to decide what choice she will make when she reaches the Nexus, and if the world will let her.
Somewhere Down the Ley Line is a tale of sweeping adventure, found family banter, slow-burn romance, and the universal journey of self-discovery. It contains adult themes, including violence and open-door spice.
