Why read it?
1 author picked Phoenix Unbound as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Although this book does feature some heavy themes (CW for mentions of rape), it’s a powerful story about dealing with trauma – and moving on from it, to the life one wants to live.

From Lauren's list on traveling fantasy romance.
