Begin the bestselling The Return of the Elves series with Soulbound, where half-blood elf Arlyn travels through the portal to confront her elven father, unleashing a plot that could touch not just the elven world but modern Earth, too.

"Bethany Adams' exquisite talent intertwines magic and love with a fantasy world of many different fae cultures." ~Bookbub Review

A deathbed promise

Arlyn’s quest is simple: Find her father and let him know her mother is dead. After all, Arlyn had promised her mother she’d go. The problem? Her father's people are myths and legends, and he doesn't even live on Earth. But despite a long journey through the mysterious mists of the Veil, finding him turns out to be the easy part.
 
A dream long-buried

After five hundred years, Kai has given up on finding his soulbonded. So when he stumbles across Arlyn after returning from his latest mission and recognizes her as his mate, Kai starts their bond in haste. But he never could have imagined that his bonded is his best friend’s newfound daughter. Whoops.
 
A hidden conspiracy sparked to life

Though the sight of Kai makes Arlyn’s heart pound, she isn’t sure she can forgive him for starting their bond without her permission. But her love life is the least of her problems. Her father is an elf lord, and his sudden acknowledgment of a half-human heir reignites the same conspiracy that took him away from her mother in the first place. Now Arlyn and her family must face iron wielding assassins, bigotry, and her newly awakened magical abilities if they hope to come through in one piece.
 
Arlyn thought she would return to Earth after meeting her father. Now she must fight to save the family she never knew she wanted.

Soul bound. This is a great story! I loved the adventure, drama and intrigue. The best thing was the “no sex” involved storytelling. It drew you into the story from the beginning and kept your attention on the story without all the added sexual nonsense that most stories seem to have to have. Truly great story telling at it’s best! Great job Bethany.

Okay…okay!. Definitely not the most exciting book I’ve ever read. In fact, in a few places it really felt like it was dragging but, I liked the story and enjoyed the world overall. Maybe not enough to read the whole series though.

Fantasy Aficionado

Soulbound. Great plot

MOM(mom of a Marine)

Soulbound. Great story! Brought the world of elves to life.

Christal0725

Fantastic fantasy book. Good read. Excellent entertainment with lovely characters and a surprise twist that seems hard to believe. I look forward to the next book in this series.

Jessalyn421

Very imaginative and beautifully written. I really enjoyed reading this- so intriguing! Great story line.

Rcmac3

Awesome. I wanted something different to read. Good details, good character development. Definitely worth the read.

Slhughson

Elf and Human Romance. Although the romance is decided upon their meeting, there are parts of this story I enjoyed: the family bonds, the snarky friendships. But it doesn’t resolve much of anything which is why I took one star. I like Alyna but her insecurity felt like a crutch more than a true character flaw. The throwaway line at the end irritated me even more. I won’t be reading on in the series.

Bolt3992

Good read. It was a well read book. I’m definitely going to be following this author & reading more of this series.

Soulbound. Didn’t love it, didn’t hate it. Spotted some punctuation errors. This book attempts to explore complex family dynamics and world building and skims over various other social issues. The author conveniently overuses magic to rush Arlyn’s adjustment to Moranaia, denying her a lot of real character development, and there was overall too much gasping and breaths caught. Even though she had no initial plans to stay, Arlyn makes no reference to the life she would be returning to after she fulfilled Aimee’s request. At the start of the book Lyr says polyamory is acceptable to elves, but the plot is driven by monogamous soulbound relationships and infidelity. When Selia and Lyr discuss lineage, they’re grateful to Kai for forcing the bond despite the fact that up until this point everyone was preaching that it is and should be Arlyn’s choice, a choice she hadn’t made yet. I never buy into the “love in a week” romances and the sex was cringey.

Lia.V

A page turner. This was such a good book, I couldn’t put it down. The characters are realistic with just the right pinch of magic and the plot unfolds before you eyes taking you in directions you never thought it would. Take advantage of it being free for now because I’m telling you, you don’t want to miss this!

Hanna&adrian4ever

Loved These Books!. I loved each one. Beautifully written, kept me enthralled in each one. I will probably read them again.

Baby-Llama-Drama

Wonderful!. Every page was absolutely captivating. From start to end it holds your attention, and is written in a delightfully simple way that also leads to great depth. I can’t wait to read the rest of the series.

Amazing. I’ve read this whole series and I love every single book

Marbenmom

Good start to Great Series?. I’ve read a few other reviews of Soulbound. Some seemed to want more action or more descriptive sex scenes. (I say more action maybe but the more descriptive and frequent the sex scenes, the more likely I am to trash the book!) I found the story to be a great introduction to the Elven World. Intense and intriguing enough to make me want more!

Very enjoyable. Fabulous story line. Worth the time to read.

Brookathee

Great sophisticated read. I usually don’t write reviews. Just hit that star button and move on. But I really have to say how well written this books is. Not over dramatic with feelings. Kept my interest at 31 years of age! Great job! Just purchased the set!

Bigwilll

Really good read. I really enjoyed this book. I already read book 2. Great story, premise and characters. I just wish that there wasn't so many view points because I wanted to know more about the love story.

AlyceNWonderland

Way too bloated. I couldn’t stay interested.. I’m about half-way through and I’m quitting. The hero character has spent most of the book either in a coma or too weak to stand on his own. So it’s been hundreds of pages of character building for the heroine and he father. Very little action or progression. I’ve been skimming past pages and finding that I missed nothing. With editing, this might be a good story. As it is, chapter upon chapter is spent talking about language, clothes, family history, etc. It’s too slow paced for me.

Clintcausey7792

Fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, just bought the second book and can't wait for more

John Frosted

Bad guys start in 1D. This is probably the first book in a series, and instead of building the love story slowly over the course of the series, started it out with a bang. Your classic head over boots in love, followed by trying to figure out if they could even be friends.. It looks like the bad guys are the mystery, and are going to be the evolving story here after the non-fun and games that occur at the end of this book. Don’t have the real root reason why the bad guys feel the way they do, what’s been said so far simply points at their targets, without explanation of the cause. Simple unjustified prejudice with no basis. Hope the author will pump that up as the series progresses. Fairly standard world building, but the whole fish out of water - girl from another world discovers unknown father, the love of her life and magical powers in a strange new land - is really underplayed. Perhaps this theme is so overused that it’s become boring? Answers await in the next installment I hope..

Don’t like it at all super boring!!!. It was a waste of time for me It’s so horrible and dumb I hated it!

Wow. What a wonderful book. It pulled me in from the first page and I was hooked. I'm off to buy the next one.

HilinCal

I cant’t wait!. It has been years, maybe decades, since the last time I stumbled into a series I loved so much. Solid, economical writing, terrific character development, a great plot, world-building that anyone would envy - and, to my extreme joy, 7 more books in the series already written, published and waiting for me to dive into. I just can’t wait!

Soul bound. A wonderful story, with interesting character. I can’t wait to read another book you have written. Thanks wendy

Peteyim

Must Read. This book was a page turner, I literary couldn’t put it down save for needing to sleep so that I could finish it, immediately bought the entire volume. I would love to see this developed on the silver screen 🥰.. dangit, the world you created is so vivid, I wish finding a human soulmate was similar to elven lore.

KizzyKat44

Dull. Storyline was disjointed and boring. I preserved for more than three quarters of the book but eventually gave up.

Huon100

Great read but feel ripped off. There are only limited amounts of pages in each of the books as the story goes on. By the time I will have purchased all the books it will cost more than a paper novel...... shame on you ... I would have loved to finish the books but refuse to be ripped off .....I’m done ....

Mostacchieos

Soulbound. Wonderful and exciting different world adventure with lots of love and drama. Couldn’t put the book down. A very worthwhile read

Shannn120492

Average. I would have liked the book to be about Arlyn but she was completely sidelined by Kai and Lyr's story. While she wasn't a total damsel, her lack of importance in the book made her character very two-dimensional.

IKruge

Great Read. Best new author I’ve read in years - Can’t wait to read the rest of the series. Romantic without being soppy, smart magic, very enjoyable

BritishBlueCat

P good. Nice read, interested in where this goes further. Quite a bit of lore behind it. Would recommend :)

Jo-gra

Soulbound. Loved it, couldn’t put it down! Looking for the next book now. Thank You

Snorksma

Good story. If, like me, you like a good fantasy novel you’re looking in the right place! For all the thousands of books that I have read, this definitely stands out - enjoy

Diane Elvina

I found this book fascinating. The author truly knows how to capture the Elfin society In a believable way. What I really enjoyed was her way of including many problems we experience in our daily lives: prejudice, cruelty and even environmental pollution! Arlyn struggles to adapt to the life as heir to her father’s realm after the death of her mother on Earth. She misunderstood accepting a gift from Kai as kindness, rather than the first stage of bonding. Even more confusing is the emerging talents she is showing, including teleporting. However, a series of attempts on the lives of Kai, her father and herself leave them all shaken until they finally face the villain....but is it now too late to stop him?

WkdTori

“Soulbound” a wonderful story. I thoroughly enjoyed this story, that had me totally enthralled from the first page till the end, and now I want to know more. I recommend this book and now I am going to get the next one.

Vivijeanne

SoulBound. Excellent book , exciting and full of all kinds of magic ... A total fantasy I was lost in ... Desperate to read more ...

World Surveyor

A well-crafted tale. A freely, flowing novel about a new arrival to the elf world. Our heroine stuns those she meets, even as a host of plots and dangers swirl around her and those that she quickly comes to realise are her true family. This book has many interesting characters, with more than enough elements of jeopardy to maintain creative tension. It’s well worth a read.
