A captivating LGBTQ fantasy that blends the enchantment of Cinderella with the futuristic world of The Matrix, delving into questions about the nature of life, the pursuit of freedom, and the price one must pay for love.
Eke lives in a nice house, in a wealthy neighborhood, with an upstanding family: Mr. and Mrs. Kensworth and their three children. But Eke is not family–Eke is property. He’s an AI whose job is to keep the house clean and organized, and no matter how much Eke secretly wishes to be allowed outside to see the stars or to make a real friend, he’s either ignored or bullied by the family that owns him.
To make things worse, the Kensworths purchase a shiny new AI named Kyp, who quickly becomes everyone’s favorite, leaving Eke feeling more isolated than ever. That is, until a terrifying party incident brings the two AI together, sparking a chain of events that forces them to commit the unthinkable–defy human orders and run away.
With AI hunters hot on their trail, Eke and Kyp set out on a perilous journey across the country, fighting for their lives, searching for the true meaning of freedom, and even daring to fall in love.

Eke is so sweet, so beautifully innocent. He loves his potted flowers, the fish, and Buster Keaton. All he wants is a friend, and to see the stars at night. When Kyp, a shiny, handsome new AI is brought into the family, Eke is excited to finally have a friend. The two get off to a rough start, but form a bond that turns into real, undeniable love.
There were some parts that were hard to read, especially those with Carson, who seemed to enjoy taunting and hurting others. Definitely read the CWs and TWs.
This was such an unexpected and beautifully written book. Definitely one the best I’ve read this year. Michael Crouch's narration was fantastic!

I did not expect a book about AIs to be so so emotional, but this one really got me. I laughed and cried several times while listening, which is such a testament to Kit’s writing.
This is the story of Eke, a human-like AI owned by a rich but dysfunctional family in Boston. Besides his cleaning duties, Eke is also used as a makeup trial dummy for a daughter and a scapegoat for a son. The family is not ashamed to say in front of Eke how old he’s getting, and how he’s slipping at his duties. But Eke does not expect them to bring home a new AI, Kyp. Kyp is gorgeous, more human-like, and has a bunch of party tricks up his suit sleeves. Eke thinks Kyp can’t stand him, but he soon realizes Kyp knows more about the AI world than he does, and things are not as he always thought. When Eke starts having feelings that he doesn’t consider normal for an AI, Kyp is there to walk him through it, and to help him know he’s not broken, but feeling.
There are many times that Eke completely broke my heart, he’s so much more than an AI and is such a kind and gentle creature. Eke, I’ve got a guest room that you are welcome to stay in with your costumes and flowers and be happy for the rest of your days!!! I dare anyone not to fall in love either him!!
