After escaping his cruel upbringing, politician Malcolm Wells had everything-or so he thought. He didn't count on falling for Breaker Blaise Hawthorne. And it's all his fault that Blaise has been captured as a war criminal. The Breaker is running out of time, and Malcolm's money, power, and influence have proven useless to win his freedom. When a magic-slinging outlaw storms into town, Malcolm seizes the opportunity to form an uneasy alliance. The pair hatch a bold gambit to free Blaise, but their enemy is one step ahead. At the mercy of Malcolm's dark past, everything they fought for unravels. All the magic in the world may not be enough to save any of them from the nightmare to come.

But the lies that shaped his life continue to haunt him, and he sets out to reconcile with his mother-only to discover that a band of magical desperadoes has taken her. With old friends at his side, Blaise sets off across the frontier, chasing down leads and unaware that his new foes hope to snare the Breaker, too.​ Meanwhile, Jefferson balances guiding his fledgling homeland to nationhood while concealing magic he's not supposed to possess. The demands of his ambassadorship send him to a faraway country where he's embroiled in a web of intrigue between a shadowy cabal planning to use him and malicious politicians who want to see him-and the new nation-fall.​ As Blaise closes in and Jefferson navigates the dangerous political waters, they realize their circumstances are once again linked.
