▬ 𝐒𝐘𝐍𝐎𝐏𝐒𝐈𝐒

THE CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS holds many dangerous secrets and mysteries both within its walls and beneath the streets. Raiya Carter lives in Manhattan with her older sister, Olivia. The two have been inseparable ever since their father was thrown in jail and their mother was lost to leukemia. They really couldn't be happier living there — far from their family and their past. The only thing Raiya misses almost as much as her mother is seeing the stars.

One year after moving to the Big Apple, Raiya manages to get herself into some trouble. A mysterious man appears and saves her, only to vanish without any evidence of being there. Of course, nobody believes this story, so she decides to track him down herself. And after three years, she's at last successful.

But her success doesn't come without a price.

From the moment Raiya stumbles across her saviour on a rooftop, she's unknowingly in danger. Because an evil thriving within the city will stop at nothing to capture the mutants if knowledge of their existence were to get out. Raiya must keep their secret from everyone, including her sister. And what's worse is that one of the mutants is a huge jerk that she actually — somehow — begins to develop feelings for. But as she grows ever closer to him, she realizes that Raphael isn't quite who he makes himself out to be.
