A STONE AGE LOVE STORY.

Ara is a huntress, a warrior. Descended from another tribe of ruthless brutes, she towers over everyone in the region and can take on anyone with raw strength alone. The daughter of her tribe's Chieftain and destined to one day assume his mantle, the responsibility she shoulders is immense. From learning how to lead, to protecting the tribe with her great prowess, to finding the right mate.

He is beginning to wonder if his tribe's Chieftain will be forced to pair him with someone.

Nex and Ara find themselves thrust together on a sudden journey when the location of a lost magical relic is discovered. As they travel the land and get to know each other, an unlikely yet impassioned relationship begins to form…
