About this book

When Cora wakes up chained in a basement alongside Dean—the infuriating nemesis she's been sparring with for fifteen years—she realizes their rivalry has landed them in something far darker and more dangerous than either could have imagined. Forced to rely on each other for survival, these sworn enemies discover that the line between hate and love is far thinner than they thought, especially when their captor has sinister plans that will change everything between them. What unfolds is a gripping, intense journey where two people who thought they knew each other must confront the truth beneath all those years of teasing and barbs. Fair warning: this is a dark, emotionally complex read that demands you buckle up for the ride.
