Dagger Beneath the Silk

Maya Thornton, Marquis Valen, is reborn six years after her murder. She remembers being killed by her husband and his mistress moments after childbirth. Now her soul wakes in Talia York, a delicate, vain daughter of a military household whose betrayal of her fiancé, Deputy Commander Tristan Wren, tangled her with a frivolous young man. Assuming Talia's life, Maya disguises herself as a man and follows Tristan to the military camp. On the very training grounds she once commanded, she endures brutal drills to reclaim the martial prowess stolen from her. Hidden behind Talia's face, Maya plans a quiet, relentless return to the capital to take revenge and once again protect the realm.
