The Reset Protocol

A black spear punches through Nora Chen’s chest—and the warlord standing over her screams a name she never gave him. Then she wakes up at the exact moment she arrived, alive, trapped in the same blood-soaked battlefield. Every death resets seventy-two hours, but each loop burns through one of her remaining chances. Kael Varden, the ruthless commander who hunts her as an enemy spy, forgets her every time—yet his touch awakens a bond neither of them can resist. As Nora’s strange bloodline begins to surface, she discovers she may be the origin of Aechelon’s war… and the only person who can end it. To save Kael and return to Earth, Nora must choose: break the loop and erase him forever—or stay long enough to become the reason the world burns.
