CIRCUIT & CYCLONE
He can hear a fuse blow from a mile away, but he never saw her coming.
Huxley 'Current' Danton lives for the hum of high-voltage transformers and the safety of his soundproofed world. A man of precision and protocols, he avoids the chaos of human interaction until a split-second rescue during a substation explosion forces him into a fake engagement with the one woman he can't calculate: Lottie Prentiss.
Lottie is no bubbly PR rep; she's an investigative journalist hunting 'The Rust,' a saboteur bent on dismantling the power grid. When a cyclonic storm traps them together in Huxley’s Faraday-cage apartment, their fake relationship begins to arc into real intimacy. For Huxley, Lottie isn't just a distraction—she's the only current that can ground his sensory-overloaded world.
As corporate mercenaries close in and the Maine coast faces a catastrophic blackout, Huxley and Lottie must navigate a lethal web of sabotage and desire. In a world of high-voltage danger and hidden agendas, they'll discover that love is a live wire—dangerous, but the only thing that keeps the lights on.
