About this book
When a stubborn, volatile treasure hunter crosses paths with a vain animal summoner, sparks fly—and not the romantic kind. Jack needs Sebastian's help to find his missing sister, and Sebastian desperately needs Jack's skills to rescue his captured prince, so they reluctantly agree to work together despite their instant dislike of each other. As they navigate murderous orcs, deadly creatures, and an impenetrable tower guarded dragon-shifting knights, these opposites discover there's far more to each other than meets the eye, and the real danger might be how deeply they're falling for one another. This charming fantasy adventure blends humor, action, and a enemies-to-lovers romance that'll have you cheering for these bickering companions long after the final page.
