The Echo of A God: Romantasy Forbidden Magic, Divine Bonds, and Sacrifice

She was born to hear magic. He was born from it. Neither was meant to survive.Kessa has spent her life listening to the hidden frequencies that bind the world together. As a resonance engineer, she knows better than anyone that sound can shape magic-and that some silences are meant to remain undisturbed.Then she enters a forbidden ruin and awakens something that should have died with the gods.Reson is not human. He is an ancient echo of a forgotten god, fading from existence after centuries trapped beyond the boundaries of the known world. He should be feared. He should be destroyed.Instead, he needs Kessa.A mysterious bond forms between them, linking their minds, their magic, and eventually their very survival. The closer Kessa gets to Reson, the more she discovers about the gods who once ruled the world-and the terrible truth the ruling Council has spent centuries trying to bury.Now the Inquisition is hunting them.The Council wants Reson captured.And something far older is beginning to awaken.As Kessa's connection to Reson deepens, she must decide how much she is willing to sacrifice for a being she was never supposed to love. Because saving a dying god may require the one thing she can never afford to lose.Her voice.Her magic.Her ability to hear.In a world where silence can destroy and resonance can resurrect the dead, loving a god may be the most dangerous magic of all.
