One night. No names. Until Monday morning—when I find out my anonymous hookup is Baxter Young… one of my dad’s star players. My dad, who also happens to be the Icehawks’ head coach.

Before she became the World Breaker, Kul'sheda was something far simpler: a woman who loved.

But immortality is a poison for one not made for it.
