But when fate is manipulated by an unseen hand, can love ever truly be free?

Christopher Hawthorne has spent his life as a specimen under the cold, calculating gaze of the Countdown Control Agency. The CCA controls the lives of those born with a mysterious Countdown Mark - a timer that dictates when you'll meet your soulmate. Born with the first Mark ever recorded, Christopher has become the object of intense study and manipulation, his every step orchestrated by the Agency to serve their agenda.

When his Mark hits zero during a mandatory CCA presentation at a local high school, Christopher is thrust into the eye of the storm. His Mark binds him to Noa Mitchell, a senior girl who appears to lead an ordinary life-until you look closer. Beneath the surface, she carries the weight of a lifetime of silent battles that have shaped how she sees the world. As their lives collide, they quickly uncover dark secrets about the Agency and their shared fate-secrets that threaten to destroy everything they've ever known.

Together, they must navigate a treacherous path filled with deception, betrayal, and a powerful Agency determined to maintain control at any cost. In their fight for freedom and truth, Christopher and Noa must learn that sometimes, the fates we're bound to are the very ones we must break.
