Space Division spy Cody Greene lies for a living. That’s one reason he looks at every woman with skepticism. He’s single because of his dysfunctional relationship with his pampered, politician mother and the fact that he’s still in love with his high school sweetheart, who died mysteriously years ago.

That leaves Cody in a tight spot when he’s ordered to marry a naïve tech genius named Lisa Shim. She’s part of the elite class and has invented everything that makes Mars amazing. Restricted by his oath, he can’t tell her she’s in danger.

Is Lisa like his mother? Or is she the perfect match he’s been praying for?
