Prepare for liftoff, book lovers!

When Weslie Fleet wins a golden ticket aboard the Boundless, she doesn’t just board a starliner—she steps into a glittering galaxy of secrets, scandals, and one dangerously attractive golden boy named Jupiter (because of course Mars’s elite name their sons after planets). What starts as a reluctant team-up becomes a sizzling slow burn that could make even the cold vacuum of space feel steamy.

But luxury has a cost, fate is a twisted little trickster, and survival? Well… that's a whole different kind of love story.

In her swoony, high-stakes debut Bound by Stars, E. L. Starling takes readers on a ride that’s part Titanic in space, part reluctant lovers, and fully impossible to put down.

Joining Starling for a galactic gabfest is bestselling author Kristin Cast (that’s me!), co-author of the House of Night series and certified connoisseur of hot fictional men, morally gray characters, and romantic tension so taut it could snap a spaceship in half.

Expect laughs. Expect feels. Expect at least one awkward overshare and a lot of interstellar love. Come for the cosmic chaos. Stay for the banter.
