Nyx Pierce. A girl with a heart of gold but a mind of steel. The apocalypse took everything from her, but she'll fight to get it back, no matter the cost. Her father broke her, but like a phoenix rises from the ashes, she will put the pieces of her mind back together. Ryan Emerson. A man who had seen too much, thrown into an unknown world too fast. He never truly got along with anyone. He was a recluse, some would say. He was quiet. Daunting. It helped him survive physically, but mentally? Was there really saving someone who was too far gone? Maybe Ryan was Nyx's savior, or maybe he was her downfall. Maybe Nyx came into Ryan's life at the perfect time, or maybe he lost himself in the process of learning how to love again. After all, can two broken souls truly fix what they didn't break?
