VENEER

In the neon-drenched shadows of the city, you are a ghost. A legend. The most elusive phantom thief to ever grace the skyline, leaving nothing behind but a calling card and a trail of frustrated authorities. You’ve never been caught, never been seen, and never been tempted—until Kaelen Thorne. He is the city’s most ruthless investigator, a man with ice in his veins and a singular obsession: putting you behind bars. To him, you are a puzzle to be solved; to you, he is the only man dangerous enough to make your heart race. Everything changes when a heist goes lethally wrong. Framed for a high-profile murder you didn't commit, you find yourself cornered by the very man sworn to hunt you down. But Kaelen has been set up, too. Now, the hunter and the prey must forge a fragile, dangerous alliance to clear their names and survive a shared enemy. In this supernatural world of secrets and shadows, your survival depends on the one person you should never trust. As you navigate a web of conspiracy and betrayal, the line between rivalry and desire begins to blur. Every brush of his hand feels like a spark in a powder keg, and every cold glance from Kaelen Thorne hides a simmering heat that threatens to consume you both. This is an enemies-to-lovers slow burn like no other, where the stakes are life and death and your secret identity is your only shield. With SideHop’s cutting-edge face-swap technology, you don't just read the story—you live it. Upload your photo to see yourself as the phantom thief, staring into Kaelen's piercing eyes and feeling the tension of every close encounter. Will you maintain your veneer of perfection, or will the truth shatter everything you've worked for? In this game of cat and mouse, how long can you keep your mask on before the heat of his pursuit burns you alive?
