After a decade on the run, Tory Arknett knows the ugly business of staying free better than he knows himself. But his freedom hinges on keeping his magic hidden. And, no matter how he tries, Tory cannot keep himself from magically healing those in need.
So when a desperate display of power outs him to the authorities, Tory flees - right into the hands of cold and competent Sena Vantaras. Caged in a cruel training facility, and threatened with placement at the front lines of a deadly war, Tory needs to get out before he gets dead.
Aside from escape, he has one goal: make Sena pay.
But then a mission strands them in enemy territory, and they must cooperate to survive. As they learn more about each other and the myth behind the magic that connects them, Tory and Sena find belonging with each other. But the trackers the facility has implanted in them will kill them in three days if they don't go back. Soon, Tory and Sena face a desperate decision: their freedom, or their lives?
