Marked

A genetic anomaly should have been a career-defining discovery.

For Cheyenne Bryant, it may become a death sentence.

As a brilliant genetics researcher, Chey has spent years studying an isolated Tennessee population. What begins as a statistical curiosity soon reveals something impossible: generations of deliberate genetic selection hidden beneath a century of carefully buried records. The deeper she digs, the clearer the truth becomes.

Someone has been engineering bloodlines.

Someone has been watching.

And someone knows exactly what she has discovered.

When a mysterious researcher named Stone Anderson appears at her symposium, Chey finds herself drawn into a world that exists beyond science, beyond reason, and beyond anything she thought possible. Stone knows more about her research than he should. More about her family than he admits. And more about her than she knows herself.

As secrets unravel and hidden archives expose a conspiracy spanning generations, Chey realizes she isn’t simply investigating the mystery.

She’s part of it.

Now caught between obsession and fear, attraction and betrayal, Chey must decide how much of the truth she’s willing to uncover before the people protecting it decide she knows too much.

Because some bloodlines aren’t born.

They’re created.

And Cheyenne Bryant was marked long before she ever knew her name.
