    Summary

    When he drapes the fur around me, another ripple runs down my spine, though it has more to do with the scent of him so close to me than it is the cold. Pine, always pine, seems to surround me as the fur settles onto my shoulders.

    “Who would have thought we’d be back to this?” He whispers, and I don’t know if he means the chantry or the fur or the terrible distance between us, but it forms a lump in my throat that I cannot seem to get rid of.

    Sequel to guilty as sin

    Summary

    Alivia is cold, sentenced to a life devoid of all feelings. Cut off from everything that once defined her, she's trapped in a state of detached logic, haunted by the distant echoes of what it meant to feel alive. She’s left to wander in a numb existence with nothing but the memories of emotions, and no way to comprehend them.

    Cullen left a life of service to take up a life of repentance. Cut off from the dreams of his youth and the very substance that gave him purpose he’s left to atone for his sins in the only way he knows how, by throwing himself into his work.

    His fragile peace is shattered when a woman he never thought he would see again shows up in Haven to serve alongside him. He’s forced to confront his demons and the crimes of his past every time he looks at her as the sunburst on her forehead threatens to burn down his life.
