Tagline: Can love survive in such dark times, or is it fated to die with them?
Book Description:
Thais Fenwick was eleven-years-old when civilization fell, devastated by a virus that killed off the majority of the world’s population. For seven years, Thais and her family lived in a community of survivors deep in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains. But when her town is attacked by raiders, she and her blind sister are taken away to the East-Central Territory where she is destined to live the cruel and unjust kind of life her late mother warned her about.
Atticus Hunt is a troubled soldier in Lexington City who has spent the past seven years trying to conform to the vicious nature of men in a post-apocalyptic society. He knows that in order to survive, he must abandon his morals and his conscience and become like those he is surrounded by. But when he meets Thais, morals and conscience win out over conformity, and he risks his rank and his life to help her. They escape the city and set out together on a long and perilous journey to find safety in Shreveport, Louisiana.
Struggling to survive in a world without electricity, food, shelter, and clean water, Atticus and Thais shed their fear of growing too close, and they fall hopelessly in love. But can love survive in such dark times, or is it fated to die with them?
Excerpt 5
“About
what?”
“Giving
the bread away to those people.”
He shook
his head against the quilt.
“No,
Thais, I’m not still angry.”
After a
moment, he said, “Thais?”
“Mmm-hmm?”
“Don’t
ask me to kiss you again.”
I
paused, tensed. “Why not?” I was afraid of the answer.
We
continued to look up at the stars. Behind us the horses whickered and their
tails swished about. A light breeze combed through the trees, carrying the
bitter and sweet scents of pine and honeysuckle with it.
Finally,
Atticus answered, “Because whatever you want from me, Thais, I’d rather you
just take it.”
I wanted
to cry.
I smiled
to myself instead.
