Love Deserted: a tense YA Disaster Distyopian - Paperback

by L. B. Carter (Author)

In the arid wasteland of distrust, only the strong survive. After a genetic trade, Valerie Acton is able to convince even her own brother that she is actually superhuman creator Jennifer Tate. Having achieved her goal, she can head back to her role as Natural Disaster Management Director, unless the man who dated the real Jennifer Tate blows her cover. When he offered to remain behind in an arid wasteland to give his brother a chance to escape, Reed Stanley, didn't expect to enjoy his sentence. But retaining his training as a bodyguard to keep her alive is hard once he knows her secret... and the role she played in Jen's death. Trapped with what feels like the last man on Earth in the midst of a drought, Val must table her independent streak and reevaluate her plans to save her people. Reed, stuck protecting a gorgeous woman, must guard his damaged heart to focus on getting home. Not the type to sit on their rears, they edge toward murder as heating tempers turn flirtatious banter into dangerous games. That is if nature doesn't hunt them down before their rescue team does. Can they escape destruction and unite the world against the real enemy or will the Earth - and their tension - fry them first? ---------------------Fans of the Maze Runner, the Hunger Games, and the movies The Day After Tomorrow and 2012 will get sucked into the gripping trilogy reviewers call unique and refreshing with dynamic characters, a smattering of romance, and twists and turns of edge-of-your-seat action, mystery and danger Grab the highly anticipated final book in the internationally bestselling, award-winning disaster dystopian trilogy, called "refreshing" and "unique" (An upper YA/NA with some sexual references and swearing.)
