    Summary

    Summary

    “I was right. You are a monster.”

    “You didn’t think so when you hand-delivered yourself to me on the Supremacy. To what end—to turn me to the Light? To save my soul?” He speaks derisively and his lips press together, as if recalling a distasteful memory. Rey senses the embers of his own anger rising to meet hers through their bond’s echo.

    She draws herself to her full height and stares him directly in the eyes. “You’re beyond saving.”

    “That is what you and others don’t understand. I never wanted it in the first place.”

    Ten months after the Battle of Crait, the Last Jedi and the Supreme Leader of the First Order have kept their bond tightly shut, allowing the seeds of their mutual rejection to blossom into hurt and anger. When the location of the Resistance base is revealed, Rey must make the ultimate sacrifice: the lives of her allies and friends, in exchange for yielding her freedom to the First Order, indefinitely.

    But new threats soon lead to the discovery that Rey cannot draw lines between the Dark and the Light as easily as she once thought, and blur the boundaries between hatred, lust, and—eventually—a deeper bond than neither she nor Kylo Ren could have ever conceived of.

    Summary

    Ben is Rey's soulmate. Her dyad in the Force. He’s a brave fighter, a good listener, he’s smart and funny and devoted and generous and good in bed – and he’s also, despite his genuine best efforts, still kind of an asshole. His mood is volatile on a good day. He has a hopelessly low threshold for frustration and tends to lash out at whoever’s nearby when it gets exceeded.

    Sometimes the only way he can handle his anger is by walking away. And sometimes the only way Rey can keep loving him despite his temper tantrums is to go love someone else for a while.

    Summary

    Rey is bonded with Ben on a soul-deep level, but they’ve never actually spent much time together – unforced, both in the same physical location, with nothing in their immediate vicinity on fire.

    Now that’s changing. And the truth is, Rey is in over her head with this new phase of their relationship. Because knowing Ben as an embodied redemption fantasy turns out to be very different from knowing him as a person.

    Her friends aren’t making things any easier.
