Fate's Rivals

Tishala1
In a world where soulmates are sacred and destiny is measured, Thonda Kareese finds herself in an awkward position. Daughter of the city's finest and most respected nobles and heiress of a great fortune, Thonda should have been the first to pair - everyone expected it. Instead, she became the city’s greatest failure. On the night of her coming-of-age ceremony, she’s adorned like royalty, certain that her pairing will be perfect. But it isn’t. Humiliated, unpaired, and exiled, Thonda becomes the living embodiment of everything her people fear: a flaw in a flawless system, an insult to the gods. But as her world begins to unravel, so too does the truth behind it — secrets buried beneath centuries of tradition, a soulmate on the run, and a power within Thonda that the world is desperate to suppress. Many people stand between Thonda and her destiny, even people she never would have thought possible, people she loved. Haunted by visions, hunted by leaders, Thonda must unravel a prophecy that has been hidden from the people for centuries, and outwit the very council that would see her silenced. Because fate may have failed her… But Thonda Kareese is done playing by its rules.
