IN A WORLD WITHOUT MONEY, THE FIGHT TO SURVIVE BEGINS . . .
The economy crashed, the country is floundering, and Carrie Ashworth struggles to keep her siblings alive. She has two jobs in her newly-formed, newly-outlawed clan: grow crops to feed thirty-six people and maintain contact with Oliver Simmons, their local patrolman. Carrie's life is almost content when Greg Pierce shows up.
A man with the ambition to help them survive. A man determined to hate her.
Greg sets to work devising systems to protect the clan but it doesn't take long to realize the true reason behind their safety. Patrolman Simmons has fallen for Carrie.
When a government raid nearly wipes out their clan, Greg takes it upon himself to give the socially-awkward patrolman what he wants. Only Carrie doesn't like Greg throwing her in Simmons' path, especially when Greg's brusque exterior melts and she catches a glimpse of the real man underneath. Carrie is forced to choose: follow her heart or save her clan.
Life won't let her choose both.

Life is the first novel in a dystopian trilogy that follows one family's fight to survive in a financially collapsed America. Within the confines of their small neighborhood, the people of Logan Pond must pull together to hide from the oppressive government. This clean romance has heart-pounding, page-turning suspense that is "all too real."

This book series grew out of one simple question: What if the end of civilized society isn't because of some huge war or catastrophe, but instead comes from the loss of one small thing: the dollar?
I've loved delving into the world of Logan Pond, asking myself what if, what if, what if? Some of the answers are chilling, but some are also encouraging. I believe as Carrie does: The human spirit is resilient. People come through hard times better and stronger. And most importantly, love on every level can endure all.
