In 2294, Cascade Andronica is attending the requisite final year of school in the once-so-vaunted Americas, now united under the governing hand of the Coalition. She plays the obedient daughter, keeping her assassin training secret, keeping her best friend safe, and fantasizing in secret about Lunar Davith Adurian, the scarred, smirky guy who's always nearby, pausing in a space of heat behind her, his breath near her hair while dusky blushes grace her skin.
Then the mutation comes.
It leaves them writhing on the classroom floor, no breath, no scream... until feathers of vivid hues unfold from their shoulders and whisper over their skin. Cascade staggers up along with the other students, dazed and disoriented, but then their professor's wings swarm with spiders and-
She leaves him dead on the sun-drenched floor.
Now on the run with Lunar, she needs to keep it together to wage an underground war against the Coalition, but inside, she's coming apart. Her father wants her to abandon her best friend. Lunar challenges her every step and antagonizes the rebellion she's supposed to control. She starts making mistakes as she struggles to hold everything in place: to hold her course, her beliefs, to hold herself-
To hold anything at all when her hands are slippery with blood.
A dystopian romance in which two superhumans from light and dark fall in love.

[BOOK IS COMPLETE BUT CURRENTLY BEING EDITED]
On August 21st, 2164, Mara Winters will discover she is not a normal human being. She will learn that she belongs to an elite race of humans called 'mutants'.
Which so happens to be the type of human that her government has killed off almost completely.
After a factory incident at her workplace, Mara will soon realize she isn't the only mutant remaining on Earth. She soon finds herself in a Rebel group training for one sole purpose; to take down their evil leaders.
But one night, Mara discovers that she has a mental bond between an oh-so-sexy mutant commander from their government. It allows them to telecommunicate, or even appear in each other's heads late at night.
The two find themselves slowly warming up to each other, despite the fact that the commander was an evil mutant-a sworn enemy against Mara's kind.
But as secrets of their past begin to unfold, they realize they had more in common than they could've ever known. They find it harder to trust those they once considered close.
Little did they know, a war was coming. And not just a physical war.
A war of love.
