"I would burn for you. I would die for you. No matter the risk, no matter the cost,"
Chrys has always struggled to live up to expectations. Not as perfect as his sister, whose shadow has become his home. Being different is a death sentence, and trying to play the game of deception has never come easy.
Darwin Barrow has worked to hide who he is all his life; to make his family proud no matter the cost. He's become so good at the game that sometimes even he loses track of who he is.
Yet when the two have a chance encounter on the first day of school, the rules begin to change, and winning no longer feels important.
With facades to maintain, spies amongst friends and sisters going missing, the pair must decide.
Is love worth burning for?
