The world as we know it ended 209 years ago. From a desert wasteland springs a single kingdom, ruled by a tyrannical King and trapped in an endless war against the shadowy desert warriors. As a desperate bid to save what remains of humanity, society has been split into two distinct classes, nicknamed the Court and the Commons. For an oppressed population on the brink of revolution, a common thief could be the last hope. Up until now, Kay has survived by her wits alone. Reckless and impulsive, wanted by the King's guard, Kay has become known as the Runner. Using the city's rooftops as her personal domain, she manages to keep one step ahead of the King with one hand buried in the purses of the courtiers. Driven by the plight of the commoners and the unjust death of her family, Kay seizes the chance to graduate from small-time thievery to full-scale rebellion. Her opportunity comes in the form of Will, a wealthy ex-soldier with a dark past. Plucked from the streets and thrown into the shimmering palace court, Kay must use her every strength to blend into a world where she doesn't belong, closer to the enemy than she ever thought she would be.

When a dangerous encounter thrusts mafia princess Sutton into the path of her ex-best friend, Nicolai, she must decide if she can trust him or if he's the reason someone wants her dead. Season 1 of the His Duology *** Nicolai Marković is just trying to get by. He's part of one of the most powerful organized crime rings in New York City, but not because he wants to be. He just has nowhere else to go. His life hasn't been the same since he was exiled from a rival crime syndicate three years ago, leaving behind his best friend-and the only girl he's ever loved. And he's stayed away from her since, just as he swore he would. But when fate reunites them and he sees her nearly get killed leaving her father's club, he does what he has to do to save her. Suddenly, he's pulled into a tangled web of secrets, lies, and twisted history that he never saw coming. And she wants nothing to do with him-the boy who abandoned her without a trace. Not anymore. She's no longer his to protect, but now that she's in danger, it becomes clear that she might just be his to steal.
