The Unity Program? It's, well, supposed to be this ground initiative by The Order, handpicking 'promising' individuals from each sector. They say it's for unity, preparing us to bridge the divides between our sectors, to work together for the 'greater good'. But really, it's shrouded in secrecy. Nobody truly knows why they're chosen or what they're in for. Some say it's just a propaganda exercise. Others think it's a death sentence with fancy branding. Rumor has it they're sending these recruits out beyond the megacities, to do what exactly... no one's sure. But if you ask me, it's less about unity and more about survival. The Order's survival, not ours.

In a world where humanity clings to survival within towering megacities, divided into sectors that dictate every aspect of life, The Order has initiated a mysterious new project: the Unity Program. Sold as a chance to bridge the sectors, the Program promises to shape a generation of leaders prepared to take on the future's most daunting challenges. But for a group of outcasts and criminals chosen from the lowest levels of society, this invitation is anything but an honor. Their true mission lies beyond the safety of the cities, in a barren and hostile wasteland, where the air is toxic and secrets are deadly.
Tasked with salvaging lost technology and facing unknown dangers, the recruits must rely on each other's strengths-or fall prey to their weaknesses. They're about to learn that The Order's promise of unity is little more than a mask for its survival plan. In this world, some lines should never be crossed... but for the Unity Program, every boundary is fair game.

Weeks before Valentine's, seventeen-year-old Kate Lapuz goes through her first ever breakup, but soon she stumbles upon a mysterious new app called My Dream Boyfriend, an AI chatbot that has the ability to understand human feelings.

In a society both connected and alienated by technology, Kate suspects an actual secret admirer is behind Ecto. Could it be the work of the techie student council president Dion or has Kate really found her soulmate in bits of computer code? She decides to get to the bottom of the cutting-edge app. Her search for Ecto's real identity leads Kate to prom, where absolute knowledge comes with a very steep price.
