Fated Rebirth: A Dark Fantasy Romance (Heretical Gods)

A gothic academia dark fantasy romance series of divine rebellion, reincarnation, and vengeance.

Violet Shaw remembers being killed.

Attending the prestigious Shademore University on an equestrian archery scholarship, Violet expects and welcomes challenges—but not violent memories of another life where she was abducted, enslaved, and murdered. When the visions sharpen into certainty, Violet must find the man who killed her and end him before he abducts another innocent.

There’s only one complication—her overly protective childhood friend, Rowan Monroe.

Once condemned to death for stealing a forbidden tome from the Forgotten Wasteland’s Library, Rowan should have been erased from existence. Instead, the Fates had other plans. Reborn into the modern world, Rowan remembers every sin of his past… and the monster who claimed him. Now bound to Violet as her unwilling guardian, he’s dragged back into a world he swore to abandon.

When a student’s murder throws Shademore University into lockdown, Rowan and Violet are forced into close quarters while searching for Violet’s killer. Their investigation uncovers magic, broken myths, ruthless monsters, forsaken gods, and secret societies as they battle their inner demons from previous lives and fall into a forbidden love.

A love, they soon realize, that could destroy them both.

She is his ruin.
He is her salvation.
Together, they bring a future the gods fear.

Fated Rebirth is a dark fantasy romance with past-life memories and fiercely feminist mythic undertones, blending gothic academia with contemporary romantic fantasy, high-stakes, gritty storytelling, slow-burn tension, found family, childhood frenemy-to-lovers heat,and neo-noir fantasy worldbuilding.
