The Future of Love is a captivating journey into a world where humanity and technology collide in unexpected ways.
Sloane has spent nearly a decade living in seclusion on a beautiful island in the Philippines, surrounded by serenity and comfort with Aurilius, her humanoid companion. A protector created to meet her every need, Aurilius is the perfect lover-ageless, flawless, and unwavering. But as Sloane's body begins to age, her once-vibrant libido begins to fade, leaving her questioning what her future holds in a world where technology has transcended the limitations of human life.
When a sudden and mysterious illness starts to affect Sloane, she's forced to confront her own mortality and the frailties of her humanity. In desperation, Sloane makes a pact with Aurilius-a promise that when the end comes, they will face it together.
But just as they begin to settle into their new life, the shadows of the past return. An attack from an old enemy shatters the peace they've worked so hard to build, and Sloane is torn from Aurilius in an instant.
As Aurilius seeks revenge on those who have wronged them, Sloane's dying wish is fulfilled-one last time, she and Aurilius will be together, forever. But what happens when love and life collide with the ultimate question: what does it truly mean to be human?
In The Future of Love, Marlow Stevens blends futuristic technology with timeless emotions in a story that explores the boundaries of love, loyalty, and the intersection between humanity and machines. A must-read for fans of Black Mirror, Ex Machina, and thought-provoking science fiction romance.
