FOR THE FANS OF THE 100, YELLOWJACKETS, AND WELCOME TO EDEN

Callie: Two years ago, the elite “golden children” of the world fled to Zion Island. While the rest of us watched the world burn, they built a new society.

Now, Zion is a myth—a gilded paradise of luxury and dark secrets. With my family gone, a one-way ticket to the island is my only hope for a fresh start.

But when the boat I’m on crashes during a storm and I’m washed ashore the island, I find myself staring into the scorching, hateful eyes of my savior—the boy who destroyed my life four years ago.

Kai Droga. An outcast. A hardened survivor. I’m prepared to hate him, but my heart has other plans. I thought I escaped the war, but I’ve just walked into a much more personal one.

Kai: On Zion, there are no laws, no rescue, and nowhere to hide. It’s ruled by the Chancellor—my former best friend turned enemy.

When Callie washes ashore on my side of the island, my world is turned upside down. I know it’s no coincidence. I know she’s bait in the Chancellor’s twisted game.

I want to hate her for what she did four years ago, but it turns out she’s still my obsession.

She thinks I’m her enemy, but I’m the only one standing between her and the man who wants us both broken. What she doesn’t know is that she’s my only reason to keep fighting.

The only reason that I still believe in this world. She is the only one for me. And this time, I’m not letting her go.
