"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

Winter's Crown seemed to hold its breath as Damien and his forces returned from the western forests. The streets were quiet, the people tense, waiting for the next chapter in a war that had grown more personal with every passing day. Calder's forces had suffered a blow, but his capacity for cunning and resilience meant Damien could never lower his guard.

As Damien dismounted in the palace courtyard, Amara was already at his side, her sharp blue eyes scanning the surroundings with practiced ease.

"You think he's going to retaliate right away?" she asked, her tone more thoughtful than teasing.

Damien's steel-gray eyes hardened. "Calder won't waste time. We've stalled his advance, but he's far from beaten. He'll adapt—he always does."
