Touch of Ruin

But her silent cage is shattered when she is abruptly moved to the luxurious upper sectors under the watch of Commander Warner, a calculating leader who sees her not as a hazard, but as a potential biological weapon. When Juliette reunites with Adam—an elite guard who possesses a unique immunity to her touch—the two execute a high-stakes escape into the toxic outer ruins. Seeking refuge in a hidden underground community known as the Sanctuary, Juliette is faced with a critical choice: flee into the quiet dead zones to hide forever, or confront her fear and learn to control her volatile power to defend the only family she has left.
