Wraith is a ghost, sort of, who cannot feel touch without pain. She has no memory of her life before, but she knows she is running out of time: she is showing signs that wraiths demonstrate before they die for good. An associate in the Para-Ops team, a team created for the benefit of the planet, Caleb O'Flare wants to breach Wraith's shields. However, time is growing short: for the team, for their missions, for their romance, for her to discover any way to prolong her life, perhaps for the world itself.

An excellent story with interesting backstory and fascinating characters. The second book of the Para-Ops series, CHOSEN BY FATE is a must-read.
