Twenty-one-year-old Dante would kill for a good cup of coffee, literally. An untouchable assassin with bulletproof skin, Dante works for philanthropic billionaire, Owen Maxwell. Dante’s mission is make the world a better place, one dead bad guy at a time. His only family is his partner and "twin" brother, John. His work is all that has ever mattered and this life is the only life he's ever known . . . until he meets Emma.

College sophomore Emma is writing her seminar paper on the Blackout, the mysterious catastrophe that claimed the lives of millions across the globe, including her older sister. When Emma stumbles onto a mugging, Dante surprises himself by swooping in to save her. More surprising, though, is that the encounter leaves Dante with memories of a family that died protecting him from none other than Owen. When his world gets turned upside down, Dante goes on the run to find the truth about his past, leading him right back to Emma. 

What begins as a chance encounter evolves into an unbreakable connection, as Dante and Emma race to recover Dante's stolen memories before Owen can weaponize every superhuman on the planet.
