Being abducted by aliens isn’t actually the worst thing that happened to me today. That’s because my captors have taken me to the Arena, an illegal space station where they force slave gladiators to kill each other for the entertainment of wealthy patrons.But I’m a nurse, not a fighter. And I've no intention of hurting anyone.That’s when I meet Vennkor, a massive warrior covered in scars, proof he hasn’t lost a fight. And Reke, a genetically engineered gladiator, who’s never seen the world beyond the Arena. Vennkor is gentle despite his intimidating size, while Reke is all claws, sharp teeth and uninhibited curiosity.They’re complete opposites, but they’re both determined to protect me. From our captors. From the other gladiators. From themselves.And soon I’m not only plotting my escape. I’m planning on taking these two alien men with me.
