For a chance at redemption, a disgraced player of carriwitchet must team up with and fake-date the rival player who destroyed her career

--

A CHANCE AT REDEMPTION IN THE HANDS OF HER RIVAL. . .Carriwitchet is a violent, rugby-esque game played atop winged beasts. It was once Taissa Cho s whole life. She was considered her country s most promising player until her nemesis, rival player Kion Locke, destroyed her career.

She was expelled from the sport in disgrace. No team would take her. And Taissa has spent the last two years thinking of nothing but revenge.

Until a chance to redeem herself and career presents itself, offered by the very man who ruined everything in the first place. A spot on his team, the Stymphs.

The catch? To garner publicity and keep Taissa as the team s secret weapon, she and Kion are forced into a fake relationship. But Taissa and Kion only have two things in common: their love of the game and their undying hatred of each other.

Yet as a mysterious illness befalls the winged creatures of the league, they are forced to work together to save their team.

With sabotage afoot, Taissa and Kion find themselves prepared for anything . . . except the fact that their fake-for-the-cameras relationship may be something real after all.
