Except Prenna didn’t come from a different country. She came from a different time in which the world has been left in ruins.
Prenna and the others who escaped to the present day must follow a strict set of rules, and she does as she’s told, believing she can help prevent the plague that will one day ravage the earth and stop humanity’s destruction. But everything changes when Prenna falls for Ethan Jarves.
