Bloodwing Academy, Book 2

At Bloodwing Academy, blood is currency, but a dragon's legacy is priceless—and as dangerous as fire.

I thought surviving my first year in Bloodwing's deadly halls would be enough. I was wrong.

I accidentally woke a dragon—a creature of myth, of death, of fire. Now, every highblood house wants control over me and the dragon's legacy I carry. But here's the truth: I have no control. I'm bluffing my way through every encounter, trying to keep everyone from realizing that I'm not the one pulling the dragon's strings.

Then there's Blake Drakharrow. I thought he was on my side, that I might even be able to trust him. But he betrayed me. Now, I'm his only blood source. How messed up is that? In a place like Bloodwing, where power and survival are everything, this bond may well be the death of us both. Unless I can find a way to end it.

In this world of vampires, dragons, and lies, there are no happy endings. Just legends—and the darkness it takes to make them.

The Bond That Burns is a dark academia fantasy romance featuring a bully villain with Draco Malfoy energy who (eventually) gets the girl, all the tension and banter, and a tantalizingly dangerous blend of court and school intrigue all set in an intricately crafted world with unique vampire and dragon lore. If you're a fan of original mythology, unique world-building, and character-driven romantasy series such as Crowns of Nyaxia, Blood and Ash, and A Court of Thorns and Roses, you won't want to miss out on this riveting new saga.

March 10th needs to hurry up like rn i absolutely fell in love with this book atp Marcus Kathryn and the other girl just needs to 💀 bc im so over it atp the spice was so worth the wait I love a book where there isn’t so much spice but PLOT man and it works its way up to the spice I feel that’s literally the best love this damn book down 10 outta 10 ❤️❤️❤️

5 stars

The tension throughout the whole book with the main characters was beautiful but also frustrating. They both deserve their happy ever after and everything keeps getting in the way of that. Unfortunately I have a feeling things will continue to get in the way but that will not have me stop rooting for Blake and Medra. I need the next book like I need air, that ending has me all sorts of stressed out. Such a great story, I love the continued worldbuilding in this book.

Why do I even begin?

This book has left me in shambles. I don’t even know what to do with myself anymore. Why can’t March be tomorrow. I needed The Wings that Bind yesterday.

Great story

Keeps you on the edge at every turn. Never knowing where she will end up with a little spice
