In an alternate Mass Effect timeline, humanity's First Contact War takes an unexpected turn. When Asari Justicar Samara tracks a dangerous fugitive to the human colony of Shanxi, she finds herself face-to-face with young Alliance officer Hannah Shepard, recently promoted and fiercely devoted to her duty.
Amidst a battlefield of biotic powers, political tension, and a colony on the brink of chaos, two women from entirely different worlds must navigate trust, morality, and the spark of an undeniable attraction. As war rages around them, their connection grows-defying duty, species, and the rigid codes that have defined their lives.
Can love survive where first contact should have meant conflict? Or will duty tear them apart before their hearts have a chance to catch up?
