Samenvatting:
He's the monster that threw me from a tower. So why am I falling for him?
Four years ago, someone tried to kill me. I survived, but the case was buried, the truth erased. Now I've returned as a Petitor, a prosecutor with the power to detect lies. My mission is simple: uncover the truth, expose the killer, and burn the system that let him walk free.
Instead, I'm assigned to work with Tetrarch Kadra. Cold. Cruel. Beautiful. The most feared of the four judges who rule our land, and far too dangerous to trust. Because his voice matches the only memory I have of my attacker.
By day, I solve cases by his side. By night, I plan his downfall. But Kadra is more than a monster-he's magnetic, merciless, and maddeningly hard to resist. The fury he unleashes against the corrupt makes me question everything I thought I knew. Including my own heart.
This isn't justice. It's obsession. And if I'm not careful, it won't be vengeance that ruins me-it'll be love.
