In the post-apocalyptic Midwest, now a ravaged dust bowl, former guardsman Derek Covington must find help for a sick boy. With nothing but memories of all he lost, Derek crosses the desert alone in search of the doctor who saved his own life ten years ago. Drifter gangs who loot and pillage don't dare come near, for Derek has a formidable weapon: a prosthetic arm with a deadly blade. For a decade, Dr. Lidia Sullivan has fantasized about the handsome guardsman who'd been in her care. And now she can't deny his dangerous request. But as they make the treacherous journey back to Old St. Louis, they must contend with much more than fierce desert winds and their unthinkable attraction. A fearless gang has spotted Lidia--a rare woman--and will fight Derek to the death to get her. And though he risks his life to save her for the sake of the child who needs her, she fears there's one thing Derek will never risk: his heart. 27,000 words Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

I wished this was a much longer story it felt choppy and vague at times and the short length emphathise this. I wished more was expanded on the world-building because the setting and concept was great with mutated vines and fungus on the loose and causing world-wide hunger and riots. The ten year jump which showed a harder edged hero and a closed off heroine was interesting but there wasn't much of a connection between the hero and heroine even if they previously spent 2 weeks together - I just couldn't believe they would hold a flame for such a long period of time especially since they both appeared to be two different people. I did enjoy the author's voice and overall the story was an action packed read but it did leave me wanting more especially since I felt it held so much more promise. ( )
