Her mission is always the same: face death, save the world, and then start anew with no memories of the people or places left behind.Dropped into a new world where elemental forces rule ninja society, she thinks—for once—she’s landed somewhere without war. Stranded in a hidden village of fire wielders with Kazuma, an infuriatingly sharp-tongued shinobi hiding more secrets than he’ll admit, she’s forced into a reluctant alliance. Proximity becomes connection, and against her better judgment, Aimee begins to believe she might finally be capable of love after thousands of lifetimes of only loss.But just as she lets herself fall, the Pattern tears her away—erasing every trace of the bond they forged, leaving him behind without so much as a goodbye.When she returns fifty years later, believing this to be a new world, she hides her dark past behind a foul-mouthed, detached exterior. But despite her efforts to stay distant from her new Wolf Squad, she can’t avoid forming bonds with the young shinobi. Or with Kiba, her silver-haired Squad Leader, with whom she shares a simmering tension after a forbidden encounter.With her past and present on a collision course, Aimee must confront the darkest parts of her soul—before the looming war erupts and the world collapses. less
