“This story by an accomplished YA writer is jam-packed…The action moves so quickly that the reader is fully engaged to the very last page.” --Publisher's WeeklyBookLife Prize

Tears are used to steal magic. Stolen magic equals slavery. I must take up the fight.

In an emotionless world, tears are a precious commodity, valued for their magic and sold on the black market. When I find a vial of these enchanted tears, it paints a target. The ruthless Arcaian soldiers use tears to steal magic, and now they're after me.

I can't defend myself against an army. My only chance of survival is aligning myself with a rogue soldier. Talon is rugged, battle-scarred, and full of heavily guarded secrets that keep us both in danger, but I can't help how drawn to him I am. But what happens when I discover his darkest secret of all?

With Talon's wavering allegiance, there’s no one I can trust. The tears have chosen me as their guardian, and I've got to keep them from falling into the wrong hands. If I fail, my people and their magic will be enslaved to the Arcaians forever.

If you like bold twists, riveting worldbuilding, and slow-sizzle romance, find out why readers are calling Chosen Guardian "magically delightful!"
