Warriors Kaleb and Aya will stop at nothing to destroy their competition.

He and Aya may be prizefighters from the otherworldly Untamed City, but his strange, obsessive connection makes staying away from the witch-ruled human world, and Mallory, harder every day.All Mallory knows of the Untamed City is what her elders have told herthat its full of debauchery and daimons looking to destroy her. But she knows shes being pulled toward Kaleb with an emotion so fierce that its utterly foreign.The two are forced apart by Mallorys overprotective witch father, stranded by necessity between warring populations that cant coexist.
