During the day Athena is a hardworking, meek, seventeen-year-old school nerd who's berated continuously by her horrible stepmother at home and targeted by her stepsisters and the entire student body at school. As long as the punches keep rolling her way, they don't come near her little brother, Mason. Taking a hit for the ones you love is NOT a weakness. When the clock strikes midnight - she is Cinder Wolf. Fighter. Winner. Champion. No one stands in her way in the underground, not with the skills her father had passed onto her before his brutal murder. Bad Boys are also curious boys. Four no-so-Prince-Charmings join the school, much everyone's excitement. Drake always likes a challenge - and there is something about the girl who keeps her shades on that attracts him. The feeling amplifies when they see Cinder Wolf dominating the underground ring. At first, Drake and his friends are intrigued to find out the secrets Athena hides - never imagining that he would fall for both sides of the same girl. However, the clock is set to strike - shadows are twisting - and the men who murdered her father are returning for a final ringside showdown. This is no fairy tale - this is a trail for survival.
