Coming Soon

I stole from death. Now, he’s come to collect.
I survived two hundred years in a prison designed to break me.
Some people would find peace in their freedom.
I’m not some people.

Instead, I’ve been left with nightmares, a crippling fear of men, and shadows that have turned vicious—constantly whispering that I’m ruined.

To make things worse, a new darkness is stalking me.

It turns out my shadows were never truly mine.
They belong to death incarnate… and he does not take kindly to thieves.

He wants his power back.
I want him gone.

Backed into a corner, I’m forced to swear an oath that tethers me to his side until I can return what was stolen.
To do that, we need to release more gods from their cages.

My shadows may go unnervingly silent in their presence, but these men are out for vengeance, and they have every reason to hate me.

They look at me like I’m something they can possess.

They’re about to learn the truth.
I may be ruined…
But no one will ever own me again.

Cimmerous is the first book in a new why choose dark romantasy series. It features morally corrupt men, trauma recovery, unhinged humor, and obsessive devotion.
