Blood Loop

The gladiator’s sword punched through Kira Dane’s heart as the Crimson Pit roared for her death. Then she opened her eyes in the same prison cell—twenty-four hours earlier, with the memory of every agonizing second intact. Once a royal guard framed for treason, Kira is now a disposable death-match prisoner with no sword, no allies, and an arena rigged against her. But every time she dies, the day resets—and the skills she learned in battle remain buried in her muscles, turning each slaughter into another step toward vengeance. With only the dangerous information broker Vex willing to trade secrets, Kira must uncover who trapped her in the loop before the commander who destroyed her finds a way to erase her for good. On her seventh death, Kira recognizes the man watching from the shadows—so will she use her next life to escape the Pit, or finally kill the traitor who controls it?
