Who knows what you could get when you cross the smartest humans in the world and money, enabling them to work on their projects. Humane or not. Scarlett Reed is thrown in to this world when she's sent back to HEDSEC, a corporation that specializes in genetically modified humans, to undergo a series of tests. There she meets her father, his side of the family, and her predetermined mate.
The more time she spends at HEDSEC, the more she wants to know about her dad and what him and his colleagues are really doing in the locked of conference and documentation rooms. She's known what it's like to live as a human being all her life, but it's time for her to learn to live as a G-MO. It's here that she learns the true nature of who she is, why she was made, and how far someone will go to save themselves. But with her mother and best friend, Carson, at home, Scarlet feels divided.
When her and her new friends find out some of HEDSEC's darker secrets, they band together to put an end to the company. But when the fight gets dangerous and lives are lost, Scarlet must choose, her human family or the G-MOs.
