"I will love you until I am nothing but dust, and even then, I'll still love you."

When a mysterious man known only as The Stranger promises to return Kaid to her, Sellah is tasked with finding each one of her love's scattered bones, his severed body hidden in the darkest corners of the realm. The quest is an impossible task, yet she must make the dangerous journey alone using only her faith and fight. But the tasks at hand are brutal. They're battles not easily won.

Sellah doesn't care how treacherous the challenges are. She'll do whatever it takes because it was her fault Kaid was punished. Promised to the primordial goddess as a child, it was Sellah's sacred duty to remain pure and untouched. To be chosen as the goddess' vessel was the highest honor, one Sellah devoted her life to until the handsome thief Kaid broke into the temple. He obliterated her world, rewriting her future, and despite her vows, she couldn't resist the beautiful longing that ignited between them. Their forbidden friendship bloomed into a doomed romance, sending her and her beloved thief down a dark path of heartbreak, unspeakable danger, and a love that not even death could conquer.

The Scattered Bones is a dark fantasy romance where reverse Orpheus and Eurydice meets the Lord of the Rings with female-driven video game-style quest vibes. It's filled with epic quests, slow-burn forbidden romance, fantasy gods, dangerous landscapes and beasts, found family, heartbreak, triumph, and a love that gives the heroine the strength to survive.

4.5 STAR: This story is entirely romance-driven, so if you enjoy a romance-plot, high-romance read, this one’s for you. The FMC and MMC share a deep, fated love, willing to fight for each other in this life and the next.

The narrative alternates between past and present. In the present, the FMC is on a heart-wrenching journey to collect the scattered body parts of her lover—separated by a god as punishment for their love. Flashbacks reveal how their connection first began and why it became so powerful. Along the way, gods aid her quest, but she also has a companion who keeps her grounded, warns her of dangers, and provides the knowledge she needs to navigate each challenge.

This is a short listen, and to me, it was just an okay read. Repeat internatal dialog. While it has a unique premise, it’s definitely a book for the romance lovers rather than those seeking an intricate plot. If you’re looking for a simple, standalone romance without committing to a long series, it might be worth a try—but it wasn’t a standout for me.
