Introduction

For seven years, I was Sarah Miller, dating Senator Ethan Bailey, my life a meticulously crafted lie for a shadowy organization.

I was nearing my triumph, about to secure his loyalty.

Then, a shattered glass, scattered files. Ethan' s furious roar echoed: "A. God. Damn. Assignment?"

Our entire relationship, a carefully woven deception, was exposed.

My D.C. career turned to ash. Ostracized and radioactive, I thought hope arrived in Mark Thorne, but his 'devotion' was another twisted lie, a calculated tactic fueled by his obsession for Ethan' s new wife, Victoria.

Victoria unleashed a horrifying campaign of torment: public humiliations, framed corruption, a deepfake.

She called my murdered assistant, Izzy, a "loose end." Worst of all, Mark, cold and brutal, snapped the neck of my only solace, my dog Buster.

How could my life become a landscape of such profound betrayal and calculated cruelty? Every supposed kindness, every bond, revealed as a sickening deception.

Shattered and broken, I whispered one word to Aegis: "Extraction."

My past memories were wiped clean.

I awoke as Amy Peterson, free in a quiet Maine town.

But the man who destroyed me, Mark Thorne, was unknowingly given an Aegis "Redemption Mandate," sent to earn my love, unaware I' m finally truly protected from his lies.
