Bound by Stars

By: E.L. Starling

Narrated by: Justis Bolding, Michael Crouch

A Love That Defies Gravity … and Fate

She never belonged in his world. He never thought he’d leave it.

When Weslie Fleet wins a golden ticket aboard the Boundless, humanity’s most opulent starliner, it’s a dream—and a danger. Raised in the dust-ridden ruins of Earth, she is thrust into the gleaming luxury of Mars’s elite, where every whispered word carries weight and every glance is a silent judgment. And none watch her closer than Jupiter, the golden boy of Mars’s high society, bound by duty, legacy, and a future he never chose.

Their reluctant partnership was supposed to be a one-off assignment. Instead, it becomes a battle of wills, a spark that ignites, and a love neither of them anticipated. But fate is as cruel as it is unpredictable, and when the Boundless veers off course, love won’t be enough to save them.

The ship is failing. The odds are impossible. And in the darkness of space, survival is the only thing that matters.

But some loves are worth defying the stars for.

A sweeping, star-crossed romance with the thrill of first love, the weight of impossible choices, and the heartbreak of knowing that not every journey ends where you planned.

An original, action-packed romance I couldn’t put down.

I read this as a physical book first and absolutely ADORED IT. I just knew the audiobook would bring it to life in the most wonderful way. Such a gripping story with a great voice. The action, the chemistry… you can’t help but be pulled it. I cannot wait for book 2!

Story and characters!

I love it when I put a book down (or press pause) and then when I’m doing other things I think to myself that I want to keep watching that movie! The imagery is so vivid…the story flows clearly and energetically. Never wanted it to end :). Sequel please!

Why isn't this getting more reviews

I am not sure why no one seems to be rating this little book. Sure it's YA but I don't care, a good story is a good story... I love this title!

So many fun twists!

Such an enjoyable listen! Brought on all the Titanic nostalgia while adding character depth and some (terrifying) stakes. I hope there’s a sequel coming!!!! 🤞🤞
