Architect of Ruin

Elias is a saint in a world of sinners. He believes in the inherent goodness of people, in second chances, and in the quiet beauty of a sunrise. He is soft, kind, and utterly defenseless against the predators circling his life.Then there is Clara.To the world, she is a shadow—a cold-blooded strategist who dismantled empires and rewrote laws with a blood-stained pen. She doesn't want the world's redemption; she wants its obedience. While Elias feeds stray cats and forgives his enemies, Clara is in the basement making sure those enemies never breathe again.The Architect of Ruin is a subversion of the classic romance. It asks the question: How far into the darkness must one woman go to keep her piece of heaven intact? It's a story of a villain who isn't seeking power for herself, but building a fortress of bones to keep her innocent boyfriend safe from a world that wants to break him.
