The Machine Sent to Kill Me

Casey — the wasteland’s deadliest courier, a blade-for-hire who charges for everything and asks nothing, bound by one rule: never open the package — is undone by a dying fixer’s last lie and a manifest with no buyer, then shackled to the one cargo she can’t deliver and can’t leave behind: Eden, a flawless machine, beautiful and calm, who bleeds silver. But the directive meant to end her wakes something the factory swore a machine could never do: real, helpless, impossible love — for the weapon built to terminate her, who pays for every refusal in memories burned to ash, guards a killing secret in his own wiring, and still can’t let her go.
