About this book
Aurora “Rory” Raven is a woman defined by tragedy. After the brutal murder of her twin sister, she transforms herself into a ruthless vigilante, hunting for justice in a world that offers none. Her quest comes to a screeching halt when she is convicted of thirteen murders and sentenced to five hundred years in Vincula, a harrowing prison realm. But as she arrives in this desolate landscape, she realizes her hunt for vengeance is far from over—it is only just beginning. Enter Caius, the notorious Umbra King. As the ruler of Vincula and a man trapped by a crime he never committed, he is as dangerous as he is misunderstood. When Rory is dropped into his throne room, she embodies everything he despises, sparking a lethal game of cat and mouse between two broken, vengeful souls. Featuring the classic enemies-to-lovers trope, this dark fantasy romance crackles with tension and sharp-witted banter. As Rory and Caius navigate their mutual hatred, their burning animosity slowly shifts into something far more volatile. In the treacherous Vincula Realm, where revenge is the only currency, these two must decide if their shared thirst for justice will unite them or tear them apart.

See all formats and editions The morally grey don’t want redemption. They want retribution. After the brutal murder of her twin sister, Aurora 'Rory' Raven spends years forging herself into a ruthless vigilante killer. She never gave up her search for the man who killed her sister, but when she is convicted of thirteen murders and sentenced to five-hundred years in Vincula, the prison realm, she knows her sister’s death will never be avenged. After arriving in Vincula, Aurora discovers her opportunity for retribution is closer than she thought. Caius is the notorious Umbra King, ruler of Vincula, King of the Monsters, and the thing nightmares are made of. After being locked in his own realm for a crime he didn’t commit, his only focus has been revenge. When Aurora drops into his throne room, representing everything he despises, they begin a game of cat and mouse, and before long, their hatred turns into something else. Circumstances draw them together, but revenge might tear them apart. The Umbra King is book one in the Vincula Realm Duology, which is set in the Realms of the Aether multiverse.
