Lydia Evanzi’s previous life ended in disaster, and she blames it all on one thing—her terrible choices in men. After being betrayed and hurt time and time again, she is given another chance at life and swears never to fall in love again. Determined to avoid romance entirely, Lydia decides to live as a virtuous priestess. However, beneath her calm and holy appearance lies a hidden goal: taking revenge on everyone who ruined her former life.

As she carefully carries out her plans, an unexpected ally enters the picture—Arsen Edith. Unlike the men Lydia once trusted, Arsen proves himself to be reliable, capable, and far more supportive than she ever anticipated. While Lydia intended to shut her heart away completely, her growing partnership with him begins to challenge the promises she made to herself.
