Chicago's most tenacious investigative journalist is one Valentine's Day assignment away from escaping the fluff-piece trenches forever. One promotion. One last story about happy couples before she can chase real news. Then she discovers the pattern. The golden shimmer that appears when year-long relationships shatter.

Her investigation tears open a hidden world where ancient forces once controlled human hearts. Where love was never meant to be free. Where the system that kept humanity bound for millennia has collapsed—and something deadly has taken its place. Sage wanted the truth. She's about to discover that some mysteries come with a dangerously attractive source who knows answers to questions she hasn't asked. A man who might be part of the problem—or the solution she never expected to find. Will uncovering the story cost her everything, or will it reveal a love worth breaking all the rules? Grab your copy and dive into a world where love is dying—and only the truth can save it. less
