On her wedding day, Aurelia watches Derek Blackwood catch a rose from Mia Fox, a red-fox dancer, and choose her over his new bride. But Aurelia has lived this life before. Last time, she stopped him, only to spend years trapped in a miserable marriage while Derek blamed her for Mia’s downfall, took mistress after mistress, and left her to die alone. Reborn on the same wedding day, Aurelia refuses to repeat her mistake. She lets Derek chase Mia, watches him lose his military command and reputation for her, and walks away without looking back. Then Caesar Leonhart, a powerful golden lion with a mysterious connection to Aurelia’s past, enters her life. Unlike Derek, Caesar respects her, protects her, and chooses her openly. With him, Aurelia finally begins a new life on her own terms. By the time Derek realizes what he threw away and comes begging for another chance, Aurelia has already found love, strength, and a future that no longer includes him.
