After the loss of her grandmother, 13-year-old Kiara receives a gift: a mysterious watch that awakens a hidden power, a remarkable Bond, a deep connection with the natural world and its creatures.
Drawn into realms of rainforest, frost, desert, ocean, city, and memory, Kiara is tested in courage, compassion, and self-discovery. Alongside animal guardians and silent trials, she heals wounded creatures, solves ancient puzzles, and confronts her grief. She unearths truths about the world-and herself.
Guided by her grandmother's wisdom, Kiara learns that the Bond is not about magic or heroism, but about listening, remembering, and choosing empathy in a world that can be easily forgotten. Kiara must decide not just who she wants to be, but what kind of world she's willing to help rebuild.
Bond Keeper: The Watcher's Gift is a lyrical coming-of-age fantasy rooted in environmental harmony, emotional healing, and the strength of choosing to care.
