"The boys of Kings Row are assigned a course of team building exercises to deepen their bonds. It takes a shoplifting scandal, a couple of moonlit forest strolls, and a whole lot of introspection for the team to realize they are stronger together than they could ever be apart"--, Provided by publisherNicholas Cox, the illegitimate son of a retired fencing champion, dreams of getting the proper training he could never afford. After earning a place on the elite Kings Row fencing team, Nicholas must prove himself to his rival, Seiji Katayma, and navigate the clashes, friendships, and relationships between his teammates on the road to state championships. Coach Williams takes advantage of the boys' morale after a recent victory and assigns them a course of team building exercises to further deepen their bonds. As the team begins realize they are stronger together than they could ever be apart, will Nicholas have the chance to spar with his golden-boy half-brother? -- adapted from Amazon info
