Lux Valentina was once a typical teenage girl until the United States was overrun with corruption and violence. Due to this, at just nineteen years old, she flees her home state to a small city known as Perish Heights.
Demetrius Vain is a world-renowned underground street fighter. He is brutal and angry, with a heart made of ice. He had no weaknesses, and often called the "Shadow of Death" due to all of those he had murdered whilst street fighting. All of his life he has used violence to unleash the bitterness in his heart. There is not one person on this earth that could tame him - or so he thought.
When the two collide, it's fire and ice - but Lux is desperate to melt him.
