Torture me now with post apocalyptic zombies or something. On the plus side, we get to see what survival is like when there is nothing to do. Into the cabin, they go with John's hot brother and his teenaged sister. Not that there was a lot to being with, but whatever (again). Of course, they are rescued, because had they not been, there'd be no story. Well, sorta.Īrden and her best friend strike out for a family cabin somewhere in the woods only to be set upon by bad, bad mountain men. And we're immersed in a world of survival. What's up with that?, the electricity has gone. Synopsis: Apparently and for reasons unknown - and that stay unknown throughout the entire flipping book. I have no idea what happened here, but Jesus take the wheel, not this series. Plan on reading more by the author: So here's the thing: this author has some downright brilliant books.

How long can they expect to last in this terrifying new world, be it together or apart? No one knows when-or if-the lights will come back on and, in the midst of all that, Arden and Gabriel are finding that there's a fine line indeed between love and hate.

He saves Arden's life, so he can't be all bad…but he's also a controlling jerk who treats her like an idiot. When scavengers attack, it's John's ridiculously handsome brother, Gabriel, who comes to the rescue. It turns out isolation doesn't necessarily equal safety. His family's cabin near the Canadian border seemed like the safest choice. All she and her roommate, John, know for sure is that they have to get out, stat. No cell phones, no power, no running water-and no one knows why. Arden Highmore was living your average postgrad life in Rochester, New York, when someone flipped the 'off' switch on the world.
