Ariel: The First Guardian

Abuse survivor Ariel Harte doesn’t need anyone, especially not her engaged ex-boyfriend Ryan Tracey. Ariel built her walls high in the human realm, but as a Guardian in the magical world of Agalrae, she has more problems than she can handle alone.One day a dark, magical force infects her and her companion animal. The only way Ariel can find to cure the infection is through a mind link purification ritual. This connection is only possible between two close people, and Ryan is the one who knows Ariel best.If Ariel wants to survive with her companion animal, she’s going to have to do something she swore she’d never do again - be vulnerable enough with Ryan to let him into her mind. As the infection worsens, Ariel and Ryan decide to risk everything, including their lives.
