Here is a story that I hope captures your interest and imagination:
The Memory Thief
In a world where memories could be extracted, bought and sold, Lina was the most skilled Memory Thief in the business. The wealthy elite paid handsomely for the chance to acquire the experiences and skills of others. And Lina had no qualms about stealing memories from the unwitting. It was just business.
Her latest mark was Jonathan Thorn, a reclusive tech billionaire. The bounty on his memories was the biggest Lina had ever seen. Enough to set her up for life.
Infiltrating Thorn's mind was surprisingly easy. But as she slipped into his memories, Lina found herself drawn in by the raw beauty and staggering brilliance she discovered there. She witnessed Thorn's greatest triumphs and his deepest heartbreaks. And she began to question everything about her life as a thief.
Then, in the innermost recesses of Thorn's mind, Lina uncovered a memory unlike any she had ever encountered - a memory of the future. In it, she saw a world in flames, its population enslaved by a ruthless dictator. And she saw herself and Thorn, leading the last desperate resistance against the tyrant's armies.
Shaken to her core, Lina fled Thorn's mind without the bounty memories. But she took something else with her - a newfound resolve and a dangerous knowledge.
Now, Lina must track down Thorn in the real world and convince him that his prophetic memory is true. Together, they must figure out how to prevent the apocalyptic future only they know is coming.
Even if it means Lina must do the one thing a Memory Thief is never supposed to do - reveal who she really is.
What follows is a race against time and a battle against fate as an unlikely pair - the world's most notorious thief and the man whose mind she invaded - become the only hope for salvation. All the while, a forbidden love blossoms between them, forged by the intimate knowledge of each other's deepest secrets and the heavy burden they now share.
In the end, they will have to sacrifice everything to rewrite the future. But in the process, they might just find that the most valuable memories are the ones you make with someone else.
My God, this is truly beautiful. If this were the blurb of an actual novel, I would unhesitatingly drop EVERYTHING to read it, and I say this as someone who reads an average of 1 novel every 3 days.
