Wire - Synopsis
Ford Pierce was just an ordinary man until the night his heart shattered. After his longtime love, Louise, left him, Ford stormed into a violent, citywide thunderstorm, desperate to escape the pain. But when a powerful, otherworldly bolt of lightning struck him, it changed him forever. The strike transformed Ford into a being of pure electric energy-a phantom force that roamed the world without a heartbeat, without touch, and without the ability to experience human emotions.
For over three decades, Ford, now known as "Ray," drifted alone, an invisible entity trapped between life and death. Isolated and unseen, he became a silent observer, forgotten by time and the people he once knew.
That is, until Alessa Ali, a young, fearless reporter, stumbled upon his presence. Drawn to the mystery surrounding Ray's energy, she became the first human in years able to see and communicate with him. Curious and compassionate, Alessa nicknamed him "Ray" and sought to uncover the truth behind his spectral existence.
As Alessa and Ray spend time together, a deep bond forms between them-a connection unlike anything either has known. But their friendship, laced with bittersweet affection, comes with a cost. Ray is bound to the world by forces beyond his control, and Alessa's human life is as fragile as ever.
In a heart-wrenching finale, Wire explores the limits of connection, the cost of transformation, and the tragic beauty of love that exists beyond time.o

Brianna Acero and the Second One's Return
One hundred years ago, war threatened the existence of humanity. One man's actions might bring it back. During WWV, battles weren't won with bombs, but with science. Specifically, with DNA. Now, a person's place in society is determined by their genetic code. If your Gift is as mundane as knowing what time it is without needing a watch, you're probably a Norm, but if it's so extraordinary that it's considered a danger to the public, congratulations, you're an Elite. Seventeen-year-old Brianna Acero doesn't fall into either category. She is the only girl in the world who has no Gift at all. When life throws her a curveball and Brianna finds herself living among the Elites, she begins to uncover layers upon layers of secrets about her own past, but there is one secret that was not meant to be unlocked. Now, there is no way of putting it back in its cage. The Second One is back, and this time he won't be so forgiving. His actions could bring about a new world war, and the end of Gifted society along with it. Only Brianna is unique enough to stop him, but will she rise to the challenge? Revenge is a dangerous game, and not everyone is ready to play it.Complete
