A few semesters into college, and Professor Becca Stevens is all Zach can see. When some crazy scientist says he could regress, it doesn't matter. Zach only cares about Becca. All he dreams of is becoming the one who can provide for her, and give her everything she needs.

When danger and secrets threaten Becca, he soon learns there's far more to a regression than just the urge to claim. Something worth billions to the government. Yet, not only will their tempting offer take Zach further from the only thing he's ever wanted, they're willing to keep him from claiming Becca altogether.

Not unless he's ready to stop playing by the world's rules, and write his own.
