In a glittering city where heroes and villains have spilled blood for generations, one rule rules them all:
Never trust anyone in spandex-especially if they've got a cape, a secret identity, and an obsession with superhero comics.
Ariella refuses to be just another shadow of her father, the legendary Red Bolt. She's fought, bled, and trained to become her own hero-fierce, unstoppable, and done bending to anyone's legacy. But freedom comes at a price, and the city's chaos is closing in.
Lucas is her rock: the son of Arrow Strike, with arrows that never miss and a calm that steadies her storm. He's loyal, strategic, always there-until the secret he's buried deeper than any wound threatens to explode and take everything they've built with it.
Dominic should be the enemy. Teenage heir to Cybercode's dark empire, he juggles school hallways and midnight heists while dodging heroes who'd kill to stop him. The villain path is easy. Seductive. Expected. But something-someone-is making him question if he can break free before the darkness claims him for good.
When their worlds crash together in a tangle of rooftops, betrayals, and stolen moments, the lines between hero, sidekick, and villain blur. Sparks ignite where they shouldn't. Loyalties fracture. Hearts race toward the one forbidden thing that could save them-or destroy the entire city.
In a world built on codes and capes, love might be the deadliest weapon of all.
Will they shatter every rule for a chance at something real... or let the legacies they were born into tear them-and everything they love-apart?
