"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 halls of Winter's Crown had fallen into an eerie silence. It had been three days since Duke Montclair's death, and though the Obsidian Circle had been crippled, Lord Evander Blackwell remained in the shadows, untouched.

Damien sat alone in the war room, a single candle casting flickering light over the tattered map of the kingdom before him. His steel-gray eyes were fixed on Blackwell's estate, Raven's Hollow, marked with a black inked dagger.

Montclair had died with defiance in his eyes.

"The Circle is bigger than you know."

Those words had haunted Damien ever since.

He knew Blackwell was more than just a noble clinging to power. The man had anticipated every move, retreating further into the shadows just when Damien thought he had him cornered.

Blackwell wasn't just another traitor. He was the true mastermind.

As Damien prepared his final strike, a knock sounded on the chamber doors.
