De: Emma Castle

Narrado por: Jeremy York

Lincoln Atwood survived the contagion that wiped out nine-tenths of humanity. As the last survivor in a secret government bunker, he knows that the other survivors are scared, angry, and dangerous, just like him. After weeks alone with the mummified bodies of his colleagues, he escapes the bunker. But the world outside has changed. Among the crumbling ruins of civilization, he loses himself to the wilderness in his soul. When he sees Caroline, a fellow survivor, she is vision of light in a world gone dark. He wants to help her, but she won't trust him when there's danger around every corner. How can he convince her that fate has brought them together?

Caroline Kelly survived hell when she escaped quarantined Chicago in search of her family after the outbreak. But it's not as easy to travel from Illinois to Missouri with the world gone dark in the space of three months. The last thing she needs is to get captured by a muscled, bearded mountain man who looks and acts like a damn super soldier. When it's clear she can't escape him, she finds herself becoming fascinated with the brooding, intense man. He makes her heart race. When tragedy strikes, Caroline realizes she might have a plan to save the world, but she'll need Lincoln's help. Can she trust Lincoln not only with humanity's future, but also her heart?

Contains mature themes.

A little predictable but still good

I did find the story a little predictable but over all it was good. Steamy adult moments and some tears.

Amazing Story

Between the story from the author and the performance of the narrator, this VERY current event driven book is amazing. Had to read/listen in one sitting and will listen to it again!

Hope and love wins!

Must listen to this book. Emma Castle has a winner. Jeremy York, as always, kills the narration. Jeremy's voice is always perfect. What you waiting on get the book. Do hope we get more of Ms. Castle's book. By the way, please, have Jeremy York for the narrator.

Interesting Soin on Dystopian America

I enjoyed the story and the coming together of Lincoln and Caroline. A lot of truthful and touching moments without excess violence and devastation. It was nice to go back to the basics of a HEA with a string female lead.

An excellent post-apocalyptic romance!

I’d read this book twice before listening to the audiobook, and I’m still blown away by the quality of the writing and research that went into this story. The narration is excellent, too!

It's a story about hope for humanity when all seems lost. And it was very dark times.

Love & hope. The best of humanity band together. It's beautiful. Best book I've read in a long time.

Much tears and rewinds to hear the situations.

Disliked the lazy ending. I need book two at least. Everything about this story was soft/hard, well done. Ending had Marine Me kinda pissed. Off to find another…so close to perfection…

Tear jerker

Definitely a great dystopian read. I look forward to finding more books by this author.

Great story! The first Chapter is Eerie, but very good.

After COVID, this book will have some Erie reminders of what quarantine in the beginning of the pandemic. The character development folds beautifully into the plot. And make sure you listen to the epilogue it ties the book up nicely. I did listen to midnight with the devil and loved that book as well.
