Description
What happens when you make a promise to love someone forever?
What happens when all you have is each other?
No laws
No contracts
No one else to turn to
And then
What happens when everything about that person changes?
Outlander meets Station Eleven in a frontier planet colonization saga full of romance, homesteading, action & adventure, medical drama, and folklore. "An absolute gut-stab of a novel, compulsively readable, beautiful in its darkness and complexity."
Anna Woods has joined a jump colony to build a settlement on an alternate Earth, one that has never known human settlement--or so they're told. As the team's ecologist she has brought her reference books, her machete, and a good pair of boots, but she tells herself she doesn't need a man; she can and has saved her own damn self. But when her colony's metalworker, a gentle giant of a man named Alex, charms her heart out from under her she learns that people can be good company. Certain people, anyway.
Unfortunately their frontier planet is a challenging place for new love: there is an old-growth forest to tame, resources to find, unfriendly settlements nearby, and Alex's sociopathic brother to worry about. The more challenges they face, the clearer it becomes that the challenges are best faced together.
When Alex is grievously injured, though, Anna must save not only herself but him. Frontier medicine, human branding, and headhunting await, but the darkest and deepest dangers lie within.
