Rapture In The Dark

In my darkness, he was my light.
Through my fears, he was my strength.
He was the one man brave enough to fight for me. He was the one man who saw me, and saved me.
He is the one I want, the only man I want.
Yet he is the one man who can hold me never.

*****

Ten years ago, a young soldier tried to save Zoey and her mother. He was shot. She never forgot that brave, young soldier.

When the Emperor orders Zoey Whard delivered to his Palace, she recognizes the order for what it is. A death sentence. But the Commander who is tasked to carry out the Emperor's cruel order is strangely, achingly familiar. She knows him.

And he never forgot her.

The connection and passion between them is too strong to be denied. Through their impossible, tormenting circumstances, they find courage and strength in each other. But in the dark depths of the Palace, as blood is spilled and desires burn out of control, Zoey knows that she will have to fight for not only her love, but her life. And she may lose...everything.
