She Loves. She Dies. She is Reborn. The gods raised Kirby as an assassin. A weapon to wield against those who threatened their power. The soldiers she grew up and trained with are the only family she knows. When her partner—her lover—betrays her, and The Order shuns her, Kirby’s world shatters. She spirals into a darkness that threatens to destroy her. The combat instructor Kirby lusts after from a distance, pulls her from pit and offers her a new path forward. A new place to belong, vengeance, and a chance to do right by the people she once hunted. But he and his two sexy friends are keeping a secret, and she's forced to decide if facing the threat alone is a bigger risk than giving her trust to more people who could betray her. Author's Note: Valkyrie Reborn was previously titled Blood in the Shadows, and has been republished. The content has not changed. The heroine doesn’t choose in this urban fantasy with dark themes, and some scorching FF action mixed in. The book contains mention of self-harm, thoughts of suicide, and physical assault
