I wake up in a stranger’s bed with no memory.

They tell me I’m married. My husband is Nikola Parrish, the visionary scientist whose work has changed history.

They say I can’t leave this place, and I must always be on guard. There are radicals who would kill me in order to hurt him.

I’m free to wander the estate, but I can’t leave the gates, and I must never, ever go into my husband’s lab. His research is dangerous.

His lab is where he hides from me.

Nikola hates me, but I am fascinated by him.

He thinks his coldness and cruelty will keep me away, but I see the devastation in his eyes.

I don’t remember my past, or what he’s done to make himself a target, but there is no gate, lock, or door that can keep me away from Nikola Parrish.

And if I don’t find a way to reach him, I feel in my bones that whatever he’s hiding is going to destroy us both.
