The Crimson Lady

A gray and sullen sky, the muddy ground squelching beneath her feet, and a faint drizzle of rain soaking her to the bone—after every regression, Karen Heyer recovers her memories of the past at this moment. While she has lived her life over and over, an untimely death is the only ending she can achieve. On her first iteration, she merely thought she had awakened in a novel, compelling her to follow the story to reach her happy end. But happiness is not written in her fate. No matter what she does, whom she meets, or what she says, a brutal death awaits. On the 100th iteration, however, Karen decides to try something new—murder. Ninety-nine deaths would drive any normal person mad, and Karen has never considered herself anything but ordinary. Perhaps trying to stir the pot will help her reach a different ending entirely.

Karen Heyer thought that a happy ending with the male lead, Raymond Sayerteth, would help her escape the romance novel she had entered. Unfortunately, fate had other plans. Karen soon discovers that regardless of how the story ends, she always dies tragically and returns to when she was 17. After being forced to relive the story for 117 years, Karen's sanity finally reaches a breaking point...as she decides to change her destiny by killing everyone who has wronged her.
