Surviving was the easy part. This is worse.
Alien invaders. Forced marriage. Human survival. One woman refuses to surrender her freedom.
Mikaela Walker survived the end of the world by trusting no one.
After the Vusod slaughter her family, Mikaela fights to stay alive in a shattered world ruled by alien invaders. Every day is survival. Every decision could mean death. Hardened by grief and driven by instinct, she follows one rule above all else: never depend on anyone.
Then the Assembly changes everything.
Humanity's last governing force has a plan to rebuild civilization, and Mikaela is ordered into a political marriage with a man she's never met. A dangerous warrior chosen for strategy, not love. A future forced upon her when freedom is the only thing she has left.
But as deadly enemies close in and buried secrets rise to the surface, Mikaela discovers survival is far more dangerous when trust, attraction, and loyalty enter the equation. Because the greatest threat in this broken world may not be the Vusod...but the terrifying possibility of losing her heart.
Perfect for readers who love post apocalyptic survival romance, alien invasion romance books for adults, forced marriage dystopian romance, survival romantasy with aliens, strong heroine survival story romance, dystopian fiction romance with spice, and slow burn enemies to lovers sci fi romance.
