Paramour: The Two-Volume Edition

Everything you are is memory. What if someone could rewrite it?

March 10, 2033. Two bodies leave a Madison Avenue hotel under police lights, and a family of Manhattans elite is about to learn that the past never stays buried. It only waits to be remembered.

Blondie Simpson is the sharpest neuroscience student on campus, and she keeps a mnemonic encoder under her bed. With it, she can walk through another persons mind, live inside their memories, and plant new ones. She is convinced she can use it to remake herself. All she needs is someone willing to go under with her.

Moneta was seventeen in 2011, a brilliant, furious girl dragged into her fathers glittering new life on Fifth Avenue. Her stepmother runs New York society. Her step-siblings cant wait for her to leave. And a single night at prom will push her toward her mother and a very dangerous kind of knowledge.

Two girls, two decades apart, and one secret that runs through both their minds. As memory guards close in, corporate empires collide over stolen thoughts, and the lines between one mind and another begin to blur, Blondie discovers that the more she changes her memories, the less certain she is whose life she is living.

Paramour is a near-future psychological thriller about memory, identity, and the families that shape us. This two-volume edition collects both books in one story: Book I: Moneta and Book II: Blondie.
