Born to Break Barriers
In a world gripped by control and fear, women have vanished from power-silenced by a mysterious virus unleashed by a ruthless organization of men known only as The Order. But one girl refuses to be erased. She remembers a time before the rules changed. Before girls were forced into hiding, before hope was outlawed. She has no name to give-not anymore. But she has a mission. And it starts with a trail of red ivy, a safehouse cloaked in shadows, and a projection of a mother she hasn't seen in months. When a charming but suspicious boy named Luke crosses her path, everything shifts. He's too kind, too helpful-and he knows more than he should. As danger closes in and a deadly tracker follows their every move, the girl must decide if she can trust the one person who might be lying to her... or if she's walking straight into a trap. Secrets will be exposed. Bonds will be broken. And in a world built to destroy her, she will uncover what she was born to do. She wasn't made to obey. She was born to break barriers.Complete
