About This Book
Some loves never fade. Some break you open. Some build you into something that cannot be erased.Before she was a war hero. Before the Artemis War. Before the Terran Federation.Kendra Foster-Briggs was a sensie star, a survivor, and a woman falling in love with someone she wasn't supposed to keep.Rose Emmons was everything Kendra didn't know she needed-brilliant, brave, and burning with a fire that refused to be controlled. Their connection was electric, dangerous, and real in a way nothing else ever had been. But in a world built on control, contracts, and debts with teeth, that kind of love comes at a cost.When Kendra signs with OutLook-a shadowy organization that promises salvation but demands obedience-everything changes. Thrown into a brutal world of surveillance, secrets, and survival, she's forced to adapt, to fight, and to learn what it means to belong to something bigger... and how to take it apart from the inside.Shades of Rose: The Complete Duology collects Becoming and Breaking, the unflinching story of a love that shaped a legend, and the fire that came before the Federation. Told in Kendra's raw, uncompromising voice, this is a journey through power, loss, identity, and the kind of love that defies rules-and redefines what's possible.It's not a romance. It's a love story. And there's a difference.Perfect for fans of The Power, Kushiel's Dart, and Gideon the Ninth, this duology blends near-future science fiction with psychological intrigue, explicit heat, and fierce emotional stakes.
