Don't Mess with the Empress-Judge

Wynne Yale, sole Empress-Judge of the underworld, returns to the mortal realm in a borrowed body to avenge her family's unjust murder. She wakes to the impossible: married to her childhood sweetheart, Carlos Shaw—now Lord Morvran. He bears his own deep grudges and regards this wife risen from the coffin with wary suspicion, yet is unconsciously drawn to her. Forced together by vengeance, their fragile trust turns into a weapon. As they move through the imperial court, old love collides with fury and mistrust. Each alliance and confrontation pushes the court toward chaos. To reclaim justice they must rely on one another, or watch their vengeance—and themselves—consume everything.
