Dark academia isn't the aesthetic. It's the cover-up. You have one reset left, and the woman hunting you controls your survival....
Cold steel pressed against his throat, and Mara Voss didn't hesitate to drive the blade home. Rowan Pike died feeling the heat of her amber eyes—only to wake up thirteen hours earlier with a blood-stained coin in his palm and a countdown ticking toward the city's end. He is the only man who can see the cracks in reality, but every death that grants him power steals a piece of his soul and a fragment of his memory. Mara is the elite hunter sworn to kill him, yet she is the only person who remembers every time he has died. Bound by a lethal contract where one death means both perish, they are forced into a desperate dance of distrust and desire. With only one reset left before the city burns forever, Rowan must decide: save the world that hates him, or trust the woman whose knife is already at his heart.
