Azrail Morris has lived a life of isolation, haunted by a curse that makes him deadly to the touch. Adopted and then abandoned, his only sanctuary is the careful distance he maintains from others. The trauma of his early years has shaped him into someone who avoids contact-both physical and emotional. His days are spent quietly in the shadows, unnoticed and untouched.
Aisha Wyatt has the opposite problem. Born with congenital insensitivity to pain, she cannot feel even the most severe injuries. While this condition makes her appear invincible, it's a double-edged sword. Behind her lively exterior lies a deep loneliness, magnified by the emotional absence of her father. Aisha longs for connection but hides behind her independence and resilience.
Their worlds collide when they are paired for a senior-year project. Initially reluctant partners, Azrail and Aisha are forced to spend time together, leading to an unexpected discovery: Aisha is immune to Azrail's curse. For the first time, Azrail can touch someone without fear of harming them. This revelation opens the door to a tentative friendship that evolves into something deeper.
Together, they begin to challenge each other's perceptions of life, love, and vulnerability. As they delve into the origins of Azrail's curse and Aisha's condition, they uncover surprising truths about themselves and each other.
