Gilene is a fire-witch who has spent five years volunteering to be burned alive each spring so that no other woman from her village must die in the empire's brutal Rites of Spring ritual. When the empire's champion gladiator, Azarion, realizes she's using magic to survive the flames, he blackmails her into helping him escape slavery and reclaim his birthright among his nomadic people. Forced together on a dangerous journey across a harsh empire, the two grow from wary adversaries into allies fighting for their mutual freedom. It's a dark, richly built fantasy romance about two traumatized survivors learning to trust and love again amid war, magic, and vengeance.
