In a world where memories can be stolen, 18-year-old Lyra Sterling works as a "memory courier," delivering fragments of stolen moments to desperate buyers in the shadowy alleys of Lumina City. Lyra has one rule: never get attached to the memories she carries. But when she accidentally retrieves a memory that reveals a shocking conspiracy involving her estranged mother, Lyra's quiet, solitary life spirals out of control.
In unraveling the truth, Lyra must join forces with Cassian, a charismatic rebel and enigmatic musician whose memories have been stolen and hold the key to exposing a powerful corporation's darkest secrets. Jointly, they have to travel through a hazardous underworld of memory traders, shadowy operatives, and taboo love, learning in the process that recollections are much more than instants-they define who we are.
But in a world where memories are currency, can Lyra and Cassian afford to remember what they're fighting for?
When Chef Margot loses her beloved restaurant to her cheating ex-fiance, her best friend, single dad Nathan, steps in with an unexpected offer to help her start over. As they collaborate, sparks fly-but can they overcome their complicated pasts for a chance at real love?
