One hundred years in the future, North America's last remaining society, The United Sectors of Elysian, hangs in the balance of war. For years the people of the Sectors, the lesser communities that lie beyond the Wall of Teeth, segregated from the citizens living comfortably inside Elysian's Citadel, have suffered. Food is scarce. Water is limited. Corruption, violence, and crime run rampant. And the oppressive hand of United Elysian's government, the Committee, weighs heavier than ever. But after a group of rioting sector citizens are slaughtered by Elysian's police force, the first cry for war echoes across the entire nation. Nineteen-year-old Finley Pryor, citizen of Sector Nine, hears this cry for war the day her father is killed in the tragic riot. Driven by anger and strong will, Finley will stop at nothing to avenge her father's death and fight for her right to survive. But just when she thinks she's about to face the biggest fight of her life, Finley Pryor is thrown into a battle much larger than herself: the dawn of Darkfire.

"I knew that if I didn't play my cards right, our story would end with her betraying me with gunshot to the head. For now, she was loyal. The question was simply of how long that blind trust would last." Nick is an arms dealer in a war-torn country. Having cut everyone from his life, his only interactions with others are with his customers, a disgraced doctor running an illegal practice, and Acadia, an ex-military sniper and Nick's business partner. His routine of manipulating Acadia and selling weapons ends when he's contacted by a wealthy family with one job: get their son out of the country. The seemingly simple mission grows complicated as the boy's past becomes clear and Nick loses his control over his partner.

She tried to stay away from physical contact. But, naturally, she eventually started longing for it, especially when her stunning mate comes into the picture.
