Ash has survived the poisoned Ashlands by needing no one. She scavenges ruined cities, sleeps where she can, and plants seeds in dead soil she knows will never grow. Then an enhanced soldier collapses at her feet—and somehow, her touch stops the burnout killing him. Unit Seven has spent years dying by degrees. Now four dangerous men need Ash closer than she ever intended to let anyone get. Their commander offers protection she refuses to trust. Their medic looks at her like he already knows her. Their reckless charmer owes her his life. And their most volatile soldier hates that her touch is the only thing that stills his shaking hands. The longer Ash stays, the harder it becomes to keep any of them at a distance. Suspicion turns into trust, desire, and something dangerously close to home. But there is a reason the poisoned world cannot touch her. The answers lead back to Project Halcyon—the program that made Unit Seven what they are, and may hold the truth about Ash as well. To save the four men she can no longer simply walk away from, Ash must uncover what Halcyon did to them all—and decide whether being wanted is worth the risk of being owned again.
