Sylvie Wolfe made a bad decision, for a good reason. Now, sentenced to death for her crime, she has only one decision left to make—the method of her execution. Most people pick lethal injection.



Sylvie demands death by combat.



Her choice gets her sent to the prison planet Rhodon, where in zone one, the galaxy's most dangerous convicted murderers fight to the death on camera in a gladiatorial-style competition that will end with one inmate being declared the champion. And having his—or her—death sentence commuted to life in prison.



Graham Anderson thinks he's lost his mind when he sees a woman in zone one. He pulls Sylvie into his cell just before lockdown, temporarily shielding her from a throng of monsters intent on laying claim to her. By the time the doors unlock at dawn, he's made nearly a hundred vicious new enemies and lost his heart to the fiercest, sexiest, most determined woman he's ever met.



With death looming in the arena and foes aligning against them behind the scenes, Sylvie and Graham must fight for every moment they share. But in the end, there can be only one champion. Which means only one of them can leave the arena alive . . .



Contains mature themes.
