A Hero Rising by Aubrie Dionne
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Earth as we know it no longer exists. Everywhere you turn there’s death and destruction. The deadly Moonshiners wait in the shadows, ready to pounce on unsuspecting souls in order to curb the hunger that roils within them.

While the pain of never seeing her again does smart greatly, the fact that he was able to gain transport for a multitude of people lessens the hurt he feels inside. Read on »
