Iron and Fire

Johanna Mason has survived the Games before, but nothing could prepare her for the girl known as the Iron Lady. Tiny, scarred, and lethal, Lana has been forged by the Capitol into a perfect weapon, surviving every Hunger Games since she was fourteen. When the two cross paths in the arena, a fragile, dangerous bond forms-built on trust, skill, and unspoken understanding.

But the Games are cruel, and survival comes at a cost. In a desperate act, Lana fakes her death to save Johanna, only to be captured and imprisoned by the Capitol. Johanna emerges victorious, celebrated, and haunted by the absence of the one person who truly mattered.

Years pass. Victory feels hollow. Grief and longing simmer as both women navigate the cruelty of the Capitol and the scars of their pasts. And in the shadows, a slow-burning connection endures-one that neither time, distance, nor power can extinguish.
