WARNING. LOVE AND DANGER AHEAD!
Discover the enigmatic world of Hannah Nguyen, a skilled assassin whose life is dictated by an unrelenting brain implant.
But debilitating aftereffects consume Hannah with each eliminated target; the price she pays for her deadly expertise. Trapped by her employer, known as The Compound, she struggles in a life devoid of escape, where freedom is a mere fantasy.
Desperation draws Hannah to the edge when her prescribed drugs increasingly fail to alleviate the aftereffects. Against the rules, she seeks help from Joan Yin, a psychiatrist unapproved by The Compound. As sparks fly between the assassin and her newfound healer, Hannah finds herself in uncharted waters. Though this romance offers a glimpse of normalcy, it also places Joan directly in the crosshairs of The Compound’s merciless grasp. Hannah and Joan’s love becomes both a sanctuary and a perilous gamble, as The Compound will stop at nothing to eliminate threats to their control of operatives.
“Lady Cold” presents a gripping story of intense passion, moral conflict, and the struggle for autonomy, as Hannah fights her inner demons and external foes, and Joan grapples with her desire for Hannah against her reluctance to engage in a lesbian relationship. Readers are taken on an electrifying journey where every choice could mean life, love, or possibly even death.
Can love’s power defy even the most sinister of forces when pitted against the icy confines of a controlled existence and depressive loneliness? Will Hannah and Joan’s bonding be their salvation or their undoing? The answers lie in an exciting narrative that will keep readers simultaneously on the edge of their seats and engulfed in the rapturous evolution of an unlikely pairing until the very last page.

Though I first thought of this as one of the stupidest things I had ever read, upon thinking about it, in a way it made sense. I can’t remember where I read it, but I never forgot it.
