While she’s feared meeting the man she’s destined for, he’s spent years craving her.
When can wishing on a fallen star become fatal? When you're hunted for it.
Centuries after the Dominion Wars, the Order was created, crafting a meticulous gilded cage and promising its people luxury in exchange for obedience. Poppy has lived her life since girlhood, adhering to most of its laws and unaware she's the center of a cosmic design. Marked by an ancient power she never asked for, she's now hunted by something dark and sinister that lies in wait until her power is ripe for harvesting, because it's believed her existence is a weapon.
When Poppy's curiosity accidentally uncovers a centuries-old secret, she is forced to trust the one man she's been warned against. Bound by forces older than memory, she and Bash are thrust into a conflict that blurs the line between fate and destiny. Old habits tell her to stay silent, but something inside her warns her that everything she knows is a lie. Can she ignore her instincts long enough to survive the challenges ahead, or will she risk mass destruction to save the people she loves?
