Antonia Silva, a disaster survivor, flees the ruins of San Fransisco and the abusive husband who trapped her there. She finds refuge aboard a ship bound for Portland. But this is no ordinary voyage. Her rescuers are part of the Terra Colony Project, a daring mission to settle a pristine new world light-years away.
Here, in a remote corner of Oregon, colonists build a new society from scratch as a dress rehearsal for life on Terra Nova. For Antonia, the challenge isn't learning survival skills, It's learning to trust, heal, and open her heart again. As she forges new friendships and works to tie up the loose ends of the ruined life behind her, she finds a true friend in Brian, a quiet geologist with his own hidden scars. Though angry at him for his treatment of her on their voyage here, he had good reasons for avoiding her.
The shadows of the past are long, and the broken Earth they plan to leave behind is more dangerous than ever. With rover gangs growing bolder and the ship's berths filling fast, Antonia must make a final choice: stay in Portland and start a new life there, or stay with the friends she's grown to love and face an uncertain future in a new world. Can a woman who has lost everything dare to build a new life-and a new love-in a new world?
