In the city of Monroe—a place where trust is currency and memory is code—Elena Halverson was never born, she was built. Recruited as a weapon, monitored through Project Oxygen, and emotionally engineered to forget her past, she becomes something far more dangerous: a woman who chooses her own story.

But when the encrypted ghosts of her former lover, Rafe, begin leaking files that fracture her sense of self—and the agency brands her unstable—Elena turns to the only man who refused to pull the trigger years ago: Kade Mercer, the operative assigned to end her.

Together, they spiral into a world of server vaults and shadow wars, where each kiss feels like confession and every gunfire echoes betrayal. As memory erodes and secrets weaponize love itself, Elena must decide what's worth remembering, who's worth saving, and how far she'll burn to rewrite her name.

In this gritty neo-noir romantic thriller, love isn't safe, truth isn't clean, and survival isn't victory—it's the rebellion of wanting someone in a world that taught you not to.
