End of the Beginning

​A Post-Apocalypse Survival Journey

 
     In a world without war, peace abides everywhere. There’s no crime, hunger, or homelessness. Yet, catastrophic events have changed America’s terrain. Now, divided in half by an earthquake separating the east from the west, the population has dwindled to a mere one hundred and fifty million, all living on the eastern coast, governed by the WGO (World Government Order).
​
     As a government employee, Dr. Rylee Cooper follows their rules and regulations. Content with her life as an archeologist and a professor at the Institute, going about her daily life has never been a worry. Not until an unexplained homeless man warns her about the end and a danger coming. In less than a day, her peaceful, content life is hurled into a world of chaotic confusion, disbelief, and fear.

​Brave Enough to Run
 END OF THE BEGINNING
BOOK 2
Hannah needs her friend, Rylee, who disappeared months ago. What would she tell her to do, run or conform? The government's mandate goes against all her beliefs. If she stays, she will have to sacrifice her freedom. Her only choice is to run. How will she survive the wilderness alone, hunted like a criminal, starving, and desperately searching for her friend? Is this how Rylee felt when she escaped into the wilderness and disappeared from the hands of the government? Running for her life.

Ripton (Rip) Maxwell pushes aside his anger and the need for revenge to help a dark-haired beauty lost in the wilderness. Why is she running? No one comes to the wilderness unless they are escaping a fate worse than death. He knows the wilderness will not let her survive without his help.
​
He admires her gutsy determination, but she doesn't trust him enough to tell him her reasons for wandering in the wilderness. He doesn't blame her, after all, he has his own secrets.
