Max leads a double life in a futuristic California that's almost out of resources. Despite grave risks, he ran for state governor to protect his people. He's also leader of the shifter underground. Threatened with genocide, many shifters have gone into hiding. Some blame Max and the underground for their plight, rather than the governmental edict that's meant death for so many.

Audrey works for Max. Unlike most humans with low levels of shifter blood who bless their lucky stars they avoided the purge, she wants to be a shifter. If she could find a way to finesse it, she'd quit her job in a heartbeat and go to work helping the shifter underground. The only sticking point is Max. She's been half in love with him forever.

Against a dog-eat-dog political backdrop where no one knows who their allies are, Max and Audrey spar with one another. Max fears she's part of the group trying to kill him. Audrey has no idea about Max's double identity and worries she won't be able to walk away from their fiery attraction to help the underground.

After a second attempt on his life, Max faces critical choices. Will he follow his head or his heart?
