Cove has been a political refugee for years. Unjustly exiled from his home, the Realm of Water, he sought refuge in the Realm of Darkness. But after years of loneliness, seemingly forgotten, a surprise missive arrives. He's granted a reprieve for temporary return to see his dying mother…but family isn't all that awaits his return to the Water. How can Cove find the courage to face that looming threat from his past while still so mired in deep-rooted shame and fear?
Iggy is a young man trying to run away. From the Kingdom of Fire, from his father, from his family's criminal legacy. But no matter what he tries, he just can't break free. All he wants is a friend, a companion, someone—but the demons of his origin hold everyone at bay. However, a chance encounter with a man named Cove, a fragile and hurt man whose life is also in shambles, just might grant Iggy what he yearns for…as long as Iggy doesn't ruin everything.
Two men who have nothing take a chance and forge an unprecedented friendship. After all, facing adversity is always easier with someone on your side, isn't it? But how much can either really trust a stranger? Can Iggy win and keep Cove's care and love despite all the shameful things he's seen and done? Can Cove accept Iggy's affections and feel safe with him despite the heavy fear of his past that threatens to choke him?
Can water and fire come together, or is it all doomed to go up in smoke?
