Their desire destroys her defenses.
Their love gives him a reason to live.
Three years of wandering the post-apocalyptic wasteland has stripped
Dr. Chris Welsh of humanity and hope. He’s a dangerous man now, full of
dark energy and yen for violence. A harrowing loss drove him from his
home, and he hasn’t stopped moving since. Grim and sardonic, he never
found anything worth sticking around for – until now.
Rosa Cortez runs Valle de Bravo, a haven of civilization amid the
chaos of the Change. Soldiers take their orders directly from her – the
iron hand within a velvet glove. The last thing she needs is a feral
loner upsetting the town’s tentative balance. However, for the good of
her people, she lets the sexy doctor stay. He evokes a delicious new
longing, but she won’t submit to any man.
Tension rises as bloodthirsty raiders strike again and again, bent on possessing Valle and its resources. Together Chris and Rosa battle
hellhounds and dust pirates while also fighting desperate attraction. To save them, love must overcome the pain of the past – and build a future
in this brutal Dark Age...
