Farris has never been good at making friends, let alone keeping them. Being an outsider among his own people, the Nytmen, as well as the other region's races is difficult and life as a bounty hunter only enforces his chosen solitude. Azra Waters has always wanted a life of freedom, to do as she wishes. Being the bargaining chip to end the Elven war by marrying a sworn enemy is not how she envisioned her future going, so a plan of escape has become a necessity. When the two meet through unusual circumstances, they soon discover that through some twist of fate they will be the keys to stopping a dreadful force from destroying everything they hold dear.
