*2nd place in the Autumn Leaves Writing Contest (hosted by @sapphire_pages_ )

Katie and Ben fell in love over the course of a year. But what if all their memories were built on lies?

Ben loves Katie but he isn't supposed to. The UIRC assigned him to gain her trust and kidnap her, not to give her his heart. But it's too late now.
As the UIRC riffles through Katie's memories, searching desperately for the information they need, Ben must decide if he should stand back and let Katie be exploited or do something about it. Because, in the end, only one thing can remain: love or fear.
