In a panic, eighteen-year-old Moyna made a hasty decision that would return to haunt her years later.

Bullied as a child, Sameer wants to make the world a safer place. He has spurned a cushy career in his father's law firm for public service. Sameer is drawn to the mysterious Moyna when they meet in Los Angeles. The attraction seems mutual, but Moyna remains cautious and secretive about her past, insulating herself from love to protect others from her unlucky curse.

At the cusp of political victory, Sameer faces increasing gun violence and death threats leading to an FBI investigation. But his greatest challenge comes when a shadow from Moyna's past threatens to destroy their future.

What hope do they have with the media hungering for a scandal?

A story of friendship, redemption, and forgiveness, "Shadowed Promise" is a journey from blind faith to triumphant love.
