'How can a hero save the world if he can't save himself? Crime rages in Cardinal City. The fanatical Syndicate's answer is to be judge, jury and executioner, even if that means destroying half the world to eradicate sin. The only thing standing in their way is a family of fearless vigilantes known as the Deadly Seven. Created in a lab with his brothers and sisters, Evan Lazarus can sense deadly levels of envy. But when he's blamed for a mass tragedy, it tears him and his heroic family apart. As the Deadly Seven self destruct, Evan loses himself in the city's ruthless cage-fighting scene, slowly falling prey to the sin he was created to fight. His only hope is to find balance in a partner who embodies his sin's opposing virtue, the last thing he expects to find is his soulmate...

'Doctor Grace Go almost died in the blast that killed her parents, and learned a valuable lesson: envy eats nothing but its own heart. So she forged a life filled with purpose and now seeks justice for the survivors. When she crosses paths with a fiercely protective but damaged hero, a desire she thought long gone is ignited. But Grace is wary of risking her brittle heart on a disgraced hero, even if she can't seem to stay away from him. When a figure from Evan's past emerges, in league with the Syndicate, their evil scheme threatens to destroy everything Evan holds dear. Pushed to the limits, he will have to pull his family from the brink of oblivion and become the hero the city needs, or will envy drive him to destroy Grace and his only chance at love and redemption forever?'
