The Child in the City by Colin Ward

Destiny crowned me the Prince of Evil. Choice will save us all.

I've spent my life controlling everything-my past, my future, my enemies. But now, the empire I've kept at arm's length is closing in, dragging me back into a nightmare I've spent years trying to forget.

The truth is, I've been running. Running from the horrors my father forced on me, from the power that was always mine but never wanted. Facing my enemies means confronting the darkest parts of myself-parts I can't let Winter see. She's my strength, my anchor, but if she knew the real me...she'd never look at me the same.

Now, with everything on the line, I'm torn between two impossible choices: fight the war that could save us all or retreat and protect the one person who matters most.

I'm losing control, and the deeper I fall, the harder it gets to keep Winter safe. The forces hunting us want her gone, and the only way I know how to protect her is to pull back, shut her out. But every step I take, the danger grows, and the cost of keeping her in my world gets higher.

They want us broken. They want me shattered.

But I'll burn the world before I let them take her from me.

Reverie is an intense, high-stakes dark and angsty romance about a powerful billionaire with a traumatic past battling his demons and the woman who stands at the heart of his salvation. As the final book in Hunter and Winter's trilogy, it delivers a pulse-pounding conclusion filled with love, danger, and the ultimate choice between destiny and freedom. While their story reaches a satisfying end, the wider Devils in D.C. saga continues, with secrets still left to uncover. This book does not end on a cliffhanger for the couple. Several themes may be troubling to some readers. View the full list of CWs on the author's site
