As the sea carried her farther and farther away, panic set in. She wished to return to her family. She would return. Taliyah renewed her struggles, kicking and clawing.
Blink. Blink. Fighting harder. Lights flared faster and faster, whizzing together. Harder still. Finally—
Taliyah gasped, her eyelids popping open.

GENA SHOWALTER
Love is a battlefield.
With the clock ticking, war between husband and wife ignites. Except Taliyah never expected the merciless king to challenge the future she once envisioned. She certainly never anticipated the thrill of their battles turning into games… The problem is, only one spouse can survive.
“Gena Showalter never fails to dazzle.”
—Jeaniene Frost, New York Times bestselling author
