He lives off the grid, haunted by the secrets he swore to forget. She fell from the stars, wounded and alone. When their worlds collide, everything changes. Kael once served in the shadows of a powerful government—until he saw too much and walked away. Now he lives in isolation, hiding from the past he can’t outrun. One night, a mysterious crash in the forest draws him into a life-altering encounter: a beautiful, otherworldly woman, barely clinging to life. She doesn’t speak his language. She doesn’t belong here. But Kael can’t leave her behind. As danger closes in, their bond deepens. She has secrets of her own—secrets that could shatter everything Kael thought he knew about the world, and himself. Together, they must survive a world built on lies… and uncover a truth worth fighting for.
