She was too much. He was never enough.
Until they found enough—in each other.

Book cover of Never Just Enough by E. V. Thorne. The title appears in stylized script over an arched purple door with the tagline “Love didn’t fix them. It gave them the strength to keep trying.”

Annabelle Greenwick has already left two lives behind—one that didn’t want her, and one she didn’t want. The last place she expects to find herself is an old estate, its door already open—and a man who hasn’t let anyone in for years.

Valen Eldcroft insists on one rule: no one leaves without asking. It’s not magic—just the only way he knows how to live. Within his walls, solitude feels like protection.

Until Annabelle arrives.

What begins as a chance encounter grows—as trust deepens, and closeness demands more—into a love neither of them expected.

As old wounds surface and defenses crack, they learn that healing takes time—and love doesn't wait for permission.

But it might be worth the risk.

Never Just Enough is an emotionally rich, character-driven romance with found family, slow burn, and real, grown-up intimacy. Perfect for readers who crave softness after storms, and the kind of love that means doing the work—together.

The Threadbound Order

a romantasy series

Book 1 of The Threadbound Order Series

Coming 2026


She sees what others can’t. She pulls what no one should.

And she’s the only one who hasn’t vanishedyet.

Book cover for "The Threadbound Order" by E. V. Thorne. The background is dark blue with pink glowing thread swirling across the center. The title is in large white script.

Early Cover Concept

Emeline Vellace sees shimmering threads of possibility winding through every choice. She thought everyone could. That she was just bad at using them. That her failures in a world of magical precision—crafted, shaped, fractured—were hers alone.


Until someone finally notices.


When a charming stranger with too many questions enters her life, Emeline thinks she’s being seen. Understood. Maybe even wanted. The pull between them is immediate—and impossible to trust.


But interest is rarely innocent—and not all threads lead where you hope. Some even burn.


The Threadbound Order begins with a tale of quiet power, dangerous longing, and the people we cling to—especially when we know it will ruin us.
