Two lethal dark mages who want nothing more than to see each other destroyed are forced into an uneasy alliance when a group of self-righteous heroes threatens to wipe them all out. Audrey, a poison mage with a poison tongue to match, and Callan, equally ruthless and absolutely infuriating, have to set aside their burning hatred long enough to survive—but proximity and adrenaline have a funny way of rewriting the rules. What starts as a mission of pure survival becomes dangerously complicated when the line between enemies and lovers gets deliciously blurred. If you love morally gray characters, delicious banter, and the electric tension that comes when two people who should be enemies can't stop wanting each other, this dark fantasy romance will absolutely wreck you.

“They are two dark mages that absolutely cannot stand each other, but they have to work together. So there is so much tension and yearning and the spice was top tier.”
