They’re building a home—someone wants to destroy it.

Eyrian and Trudi are settling into their new roles as partners, parents, and the reluctant heart of their community. But Trudi’s past keeps her at a careful distance from the life she wants, while Eyrian can’t shake the feeling that his brother’s gift came with a price—a price yet to be paid.

In the dead of night, a voice on the radio shatters their peace. Yana—his brother’s brilliant and dangerous ex—is alive. And she’s looking for Eyrian. Knowing the danger, he resists.

But Trudi’s fear runs deeper—this woman takes what she wants.

And what she wants is Eyrian.

When Nico, their newest member, falls gravely ill, they have no choice but to invite Yana into their home. But her arrival is worse than they feared.

Yana didn’t just come with medicine. She comes with a plan. A plan that will use their own insecurities against them.

Because Eyrian’s brother left a secret in his blood.

And she will destroy them to get it.

A post-apocalyptic survival romance set in the Appalachian foothills of Virginia about trust, sacrifice, and a hard-won happily ever after.

Includes the bonus short story “The Brownie Offensive”—told from Nico’s perspective as he finds his place in the community.
