Dr. Scarlett Kane never set out to start a revolution.
As a no-nonsense biomedical engineering professor at Ember Falls University, she has spent years trying to protect her direct reports from a system she has learned refuses to protect them.
But after the university turns a blind eye one time too many, Scarlett’s passion for justice ignites into something far more intense.
She’s not just angry, she’s ready to fight.
Warrick “War” Redmond is the university’s controlled HR director, a man who thrives on order, diplomacy, and staying ten steps ahead to protect EFU’s brand.
To Scarlett, he’s the polished face of a corrupt institution, too calm, too careful, and too complicit.
But beneath his composed exterior lies a man with secrets of his own, and a plan that could change everything.
Thrown together by circumstance and driven by a shared desire to expose the truth, Scarlett and War find themselves walking a tightrope between strategy and emotion, trust and betrayal.
The more they clash, the more they connect, and the more fiery their exchanges become.
In a world where power is king and silence is survival, can two bold people trust each other enough to forge an alliance and begin to heal the broken parts of themselves?
