After a soul-crushing betrayal, a young woman slips into a spiral of silence, starvation, and numbness. When she reaches the edge, both figuratively and literally, she makes a desperate wish by the lake: to never feel love again. Far beyond the human world, a powerful being hears her. A god-like entity, incapable of love but desperate to understand it, offers her a contract to surrender her ability to love in exchange for wealth and emotional freedom. She accepts. Years later, she lives a quiet, reclusive life; wealthy, untouched, and emotionally unreachable. But fate has a strange way of stirring what we try to bury. What happens when someone begins to awaken something she thought she gave away forever?

~ AVAILABLE ON AMAZON: https://www.amazon.com/dp/164434193X ~ She hated riding the subway. It was cramped, smelled, and the seats were extremely uncomfortable to sit on for hours on end. Now add a group of crazy mask-wearing, weapon-wielding, maniacs to the ever growing list of reasons why Gemma hated riding the subway. Gemma Conners is your average eighteen year old and for the past two years she's been riding the subway to and from school with no problem. She always expected the same ol' same ol'. Cramped spaces, hard seats, and perverts staring her up and down and "accidentally" bumping into her and blaming it on the train as it jostled people into one another. Never did she expect a group of masked men to rush in and hold everyone onboard hostage, demanding that they all play along with their sick and twisted idea of a "game". It was either that or die. To add on to her ever growing list of problems, one of the passengers onboard just so happens to be Archer Daniels, your typical high school "heartthrob" and Gemma's classmate. Her day just kept getting better and better. With Gemma's luck, she'd be lucky if she lasted five minutes. Yep. She really hated the subway. *Book Cover Credit: Irah Marie* Thanks again for making such an AMAZING cover!❤️
