Bones:A Novel

In a post-apocalyptic survivalist world, a young woman with a healing gift is forced to confront the horrors of her past—the first installment of a wildly addictive, heart-wrenching dystopian romantic series.

“I know you’re used to people wanting your power, but gods, Bones, all I want is you.”

Bones was born with the miraculous power to heal, but all her gift has brought is death. As a child, her older brother trained her to survive, and so survive she did. The blood on her hands will never wash off.

After finally escaping the ruthless raiders who imprisoned her for twelve long years, Bones is broken, scarred, and desperate for atonement. But rumors of her abilities catch up to her, and she’s soon dragged to a northwest mountain stronghold known as the Vault.

Involuntarily drawn to the tight-knit crew who captured her, Bones begins to develop feelings for Trey, a strong, kind-hearted man who breaks through her defenses. But Bones is carrying terrible secrets, and menacing forces are hunting for her. To let people in is to endanger them.

With a mounting rebellion and enemies closing in on her, Bones must confront both her past and questions around love, survival, and what’s worth fighting for when all else seems lost | K.L.
