The Broken Promise

Every child makes one promise. Only one has ever broken the Stone. For centuries, the ancient Promise Stone has marked the beginning of every life in Frosthollow. One promise. One future. One unbroken tradition. Until Runa witnesses the impossible. When the Stone cracks, Royal Warden Haldor is sent north to uncover the truth. Bound by duty and sworn to the Crown, he trusts facts-not legends. He never expects her to become the one person he cannot walk away from. As impossible Threads awaken and forgotten truths emerge from the shadows, Runa and Haldor are drawn into a mystery older than the kingdom itself. Every answer demands a sacrifice. Every promise binds them closer together. And some promises refuse to be broken. The Broken Promise is a sweeping slow-burn fantasy romance where ancient magic, quiet longing, unforgettable characters, and a love built on trust collide in a world where promises shape destiny.
