"If somehow you could rewrite your life's greatest sins."

Damien Vryce, a hard-hearted killer, was hanged for tyranny. He found himself awoken one year ahead of his fall. Having recollections from his past, he swore to make amends and save himself from the gallows. In the path of redemption lay treachery, conspiracies under the surface, and an unlikely, but hot love with the unknown woman, Amara Draven.

As Damien sows the seeds of distrust by laying ruin to his past empire of fear, he recognizes that redemption considers the acknowledgement of the sins that have been committed along with the crossing of the line from sin to repentance. An entire kingdom lies in the threshold of war, enemies imbued with greed lurk in the shadows, and the second chance for Damien may well be the last.

Redemption In The Shadows

The dawn light filtered through the frost-covered windows of Blackmere's great hall. Damien sat at the head of the long table, the shadows under his steel-gray eyes betraying the restless nights that had become his norm. The weight of Rellen's conspiracy and Fenwick's betrayal loomed over him.

Amara leaned against the far wall, her sharp blue eyes watching him closely. "You're quieter than usual this morning. Brooding doesn't suit you, Damien."

Damien allowed himself a faint smirk, though it didn't reach his eyes. "I'm not brooding, Amara. I'm thinking."

"About how to bring Fenwick down or how to stop an invasion?" she asked.

"Both," Damien replied, his steel-gray gaze hardening. "If we don't act swiftly, Fenwick's betrayal could unravel everything we've worked for. And if Rellen's forces cross the border, Blackmere will be the first to fall."
