Summary
"Atonement is not a place you reach. It is a road you walk until your feet bleed, knowing you will never arrive."
In the ashes of the Battle of Berlin, a Russian soldier with blood on his hands falls for the German girl whose lover he murdered.
Giselle Winter once watched Yuri Serebryakov crush the life from the boy she loved more than life itself. She saw him laugh as he broke bone and spirit beneath his boot.
Years later, haunted by the ghost of the boy he slaughtered in the ruins, Yuri searches for the woman who once threw herself between them in desperate fury, the same woman whose heart he shattered and now aches for with every jagged breath.
What begins as regret and atonement becomes something far more dangerous and hopeless: love.
A slow-burn tale of war, guilt, and the fragile hope that blooms even on a soldier’s grave, where daisies whisper of a forgiveness that may never come.
