The Villainess Who Shattered the Crown - A Reborn Noblewoman Fantasy Romance of Royal Secrets and a Cursed Duke #1012371

Lysandra Bellmont died with oathglass under her tongue and the whole court staring at her empty hands.

Accused of shattering the Shard Crown, betraying the throne, and using forbidden mirror craft, she wakes before the coronation festival with one chance to expose the hands that truly broke the kingdom's sacred oath. The prince is already rehearsing grief. Her half sister is already learning how to weep on command. And the bishops who condemned her are hiding a secret her mother died to protect.

Her only ally is Rowan Blackmere, the cursed duke the court has spent years calling a monster. Glass runs beneath his skin, his duchy is being poisoned by royal lies, and he was the only man who saw the truth when Lysandra could not speak. Their alliance begins as survival, but every stolen ledger, hidden mirror, and dangerous witness pulls them closer to a future neither of them was supposed to have.

If Lysandra fails, the crown will break again and her name will be buried forever. If she wins, the kingdom will learn exactly who needed a villainess to stay silent.

What to expect: reborn villainess redemption, cursed duke protector, broken crown conspiracy, royal secrets, court betrayal, slow-burn fantasy romance.
