'Fierce and filled with yearning' ANDREA STEWART
'Smart, imaginative, and brutal' WESLEY CHU

Romance, politics and power meld in this pulse-pounding, enemies-to-lovers epic adult fantasy romance retelling of Antony and Cleopatra, set amid a deadly city-wide Battle Royale game.

WIN, OR DIE TRYING.

Five years ago, Princess Calla vowed to tear down San-Er's tyrannical monarchy. First, she killed her parents. Now her sights are set on her uncle: the remaining, reclusive king. The only way to reach him is to enter his deadly games, and be crowned the winner by his hand.

Anton Makusa's childhood love lies in a coma, and he is deep in debt trying to keep her alive. His last chance at saving her is winning the games.

When the two form an uneasy alliance, victory is soon within their reach. But as their mutual attraction proves increasingly undeniable, Calla must decide what she's playing for ­- her lover or her kingdom.
