About this book

Seventeen-year-old Callie finally escapes a nightmare of abuse, seeking nothing more than a fresh start in a quiet Oregon town. She expects the typical struggles of a new high school, but her life takes a sharp turn when she crosses paths with five mysterious, otherworldly guys. They are not just popular classmates; they are supernatural beings who reveal a shocking truth: Callie is one of them.

This gripping start to a ten-book series blends the high-stakes drama of an academy setting with the addictive tension of a slow-burn reverse harem. As Callie navigates her burgeoning powers and the complex bonds forming with her five protectors, she must also confront the lingering trauma of her past. It is a journey of healing, self-discovery, and dangerous secrets that blur the line between human and divine.

Perfect for fans of paranormal romance who crave deep character development and long-term romantic tension, this story offers a gritty, vivid escape. The narrative masterfully balances dark themes with the wonder of a hidden, supernatural world. If you are looking for an immersive series that grows alongside its protagonist, prepare to be captivated by the mysteries of the Bound Spirit.

Two thumbs WAY UP!!!

August 20, 2018

It's been quite some time since i magically stumbled upon a new author and new series that made me want to shout from the rooftops about how BRILLIANT said book was! This was indeed one of those books. It had me chuckling aloud in places....but no this is by no means a comical book. There are MASSIVE themes of trauma, loss and PTSD wrapped up within a supernatural world and teen life....Callie has endured trauma and torture at the hands of her sadistic male sperm donor (I REFUSE to refer to him...

YA RH with Paranormals? Yes, please.

Wills starts this new series off with a strong hook- jumping right into the craziness and tragedy that is Callie's (our MC) life with her abusive father. Needless to say, though I'll say it anyway, Callie has had one h*ll of a life. Callie has mental and emotional scars from her past that impact how she holds herself, how she sees the world and those around her. For the first time in her life she has a chance to figure out who she is, what she enjoys, what kind of friendships or relationships...

great start to a series

Great start to a series. Strong characters and the author has done an excellent job of drawing you in and making you care about them all. The guys are not cookie cutter, each is unique and has their own demons to battle. And wow, the FMC has a lot to overcome but you can see the guys are good at supporting each other so they will hopefully be able to do the same for her. Warning though, this series isn’t complete. I think I saw somewhere that it is supposed to be like 10 books total and at the...

Lately, I have been on a reverse harem funk, no new-new material to get my hands on. So I am actually wary before I start this read. But very fortunately for me, this worked beyond what I have previously expected. Bound Spirit seems to me like a combination of other great reverse harem reads I have loved. A great combo at that. But not really so alike that I find it unoriginal. It made me read each and every word worth of 400+ pages. Which made me really giddy because I just want to get into...

WOW! Love this story and cannot wait for the rest of the series!!!

Bound Spirit was an unexpected find that I was excited to read, but had no great expectations for. But WOW were my expectations blown away after reading this story. I fell in love with the characters and the story so quickly that I hope this author writes fast, because I NEED the next installment in this series! Callie has finally escaped her abusive home-life and just wants to exist as a normal girl, as normal as she can be- and maybe make a few friends in her new town she moved to with her...
