In a Deviant Future, the world has been reshaped. Humanity has been changed. Yet despite it all, one thing does survive-love. The world outside the domes is a scary place, but nothing compared to the marauder who captures her. With one dark look, Axel promises violence, yet his touch is gentle. He shows her a different way of living. A new set of truths. How the ancients used to do things. Makes her want a forbidden thing called love. But can she leave her past and beliefs behind? The woman is trouble with a capital T. Yet the moment Axel sees her, rational thought disappears, and when she ends up in grave danger, he can't stop himself from going to her rescue. Will he be in time to save her?
