Dark Redemption
By the time Avery Blackwood stumbles into a nameless bar on the worst night of her life, she's lost everything-her marriage, her hope, her sense of belonging. But it isn't rock bottom. It's the gateway to an intoxicating new world, ruled by Riven, the enigmatic bar owner whose power blurs the line between seduction and torment.
When Avery signs an arcane contract in an act of desperation, she awakens in a mansion of secrets, chains, and impossible desires. Riven offers her luxury, pleasure, and the chance to escape her sorrow-but every gift carries a price. As master and captive, their relationship explodes in a dark spiral of psychological games, forbidden passion, and dangerous bargains, leaving Avery torn between resistance and surrender.
As Avery navigates a maze of trials and rivalries-haunted by a housemaid with her own secrets, threatened by dangerous guests, and drawn ever deeper into Riven's fractured past-she must confront her own darkest fears and desires. Friendships are forged, alliances betrayed, and identities shattered in a battle of wills where trust is both the deadliest weapon and the rarest gift.
But the cost of escape might be higher than Avery ever imagined. To survive, she must choose: freedom or forgiveness, power or submission, breaking the chains or embracing her own twisted redemption.
A gothic, psychological dark romance for fans of J. Kenner, Skye Warren, and A. Zavarelli. This is a story of pain and transformation, cruelty and compassion, and a woman who discovers salvation isn't found in escape-it's forged in the fire of her own courage.
