In the year 3000, young citizens are being captured and turned into robots to aid the city. Many people are against this, especially the parents of the kidnapped teens. But once they're programmed, they're gone forever... Juniper Rowell thinks that she will be gone forever, too, when she gets stolen and taken to the laboratory. She wakes up days later and finds that she's been transformed into a mindless machine. Except she's not mindless. She hadn't been programmed yet. Seeing this as her only chance to stay partially human, Juniper escapes from the facility and goes into hiding with the rather handsome (and obnoxious) Steven Sterling, who just so happens to be one of the scientists who turned her into a robot. While learning how to except and control her new robotic body, Juniper also learns how to trust the dashing young man that fights for their lives along side her.
