"Loyalties are tested in this slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers romantasy following an assassin and a healer forced to work together to cure a fatal disease while resisting the urge to kill each other--or, worse, fall in love. When Osric Mordaunt, member of the Fyren Order of assassins, falls ill, he realizes he needs the expertise of a very specific healer. As fate would have it, that healer belongs to an enemy faction, the Haelan Order. Aurienne Fairhrim and her fellow Haelen are inundated by sick children suffering from an outbreak of a previously long-forgotten Pox. Unable to get the funding needed to launch an immunization program, the Haelen Order is desperate for money--so desperate that when Osric breaks into their headquarters to bribe Aurienne to heal him, she is forced to accept. As Osric and Aurienne work together to solve not only his illness but the mysterious reoccurrence of the Pox, they find themselves ardently denying their attraction, which only fuels the tension between them"-- Dust jacket flap.

It contains elements that may not be suitable for all readers, including graphic violence, on-page torture, on-page deaths of minor characters, swearing, brief sexual content, medical content including fictional diseases affecting adults and children, and depictions of sick children in a hospital-like setting.
