"One cold, crisp night, Jack Sommers was faced with a choice--live forever according to the ancient, magical rules of Gaia, or die. Jack chose to live, and in exchange, he became a Winter. Like the other Seasons, each year Jack must hunt and kill the one before him. Gaia's rules are pretty straightforward. Winter kills Autumn. Autumn kills Summer. Summer kills Spring. And Spring kills Winter. Which means that Jack kills Amber. Amber kills Julio. Julio kills Fleur. And Fleur kills Jack. They die. They train. They hunt. But when Jack and Fleur--Winter and Spring--fall for each other against all odds, the true brutality of their eternal lives becomes all too personal and all too painful. And Fleur is on the brink of being Purged, forever, unless they can come up with a plan to stop the cycle. When the four Seasons unite, risking immortality for a chance at love and to reclaim their free will, their cross-country escape brings them to a place where they must defend each other against a creator who seeks to destroy them."--Inside front jacket flap.

"I started reading this book for a reading prompt & I immediately was like “how am I just now reading this?” The plot in the beginning completely blew me away. I found it so intrigued and interesting, like, “yes! This is how you write a fantasy book!” But then the book kept going and & some of it could have been me, but I just got lost & out of touch with the characters. The ending also seemed rushed to me. I also think the alternating POVs could have taken me out of it a bit - I personally preferred Jack’s POV. <br/>This review is making it think that I really didn’t like this book but I did! I’m still thinking about the plot of it! And I’m intrigued enough that there’s a sequel to it. Butttt I have a feeling that both books could have been one really good book!"
