Dario - the fair-minded, underestimated son of the Lord of Westmoor. Reo - the younger, slightly self-centered, misunderstood legitimate son of the Lord of Westmoor. Lady Auberee of Moonvale - the kind-hearted, terminally ill, deadly force of a girl that has been promised to the heir of Westmoor as his bride. In five days, on Reo's birthday, these three lives will change forever. Dario and Reo will both enter the pit, but only one will leave-the rightful heir to the Lord of Westmoor. Yet the arrival of Auberee and her father exposes a devastating secret: the dying Lord of Westmoor will never relinquish his title. He plans for the more pliable Reo to win and kill Dario. When he does, the combined forces of Westmoor and Moonvale will march east on the eternal pools, and the Lord of Westmoor can be cured of his disease. Westmoor will never be rid of its cruel, heartless Lord, and neither will Reo. To escape their father's plans, Reo and Dario must come together, joined by Auberee and Dario's mother and uncle. For better or worse, Dario, Reo, and Auberee learn that there is much more to their group than meets the eye. Suppressed abilities are unleashed, repressed illnesses threaten to take over, and relationships are tested to their limits. With lies and secrets turning brother on brother and causing tensions to boil over, surviving each other could be their greatest obstacle of all.
