The obscene, catastrophic force that took away the luscious beauty of earth, there is no green, no blue, no vibrant hues, all removed in the span of 24 days. All that is left is a black, grey and a sickly purple. It spread through the earth like a plague, in the roots and water, casting everything it touched to an eternal stand still. Only a few 4,000,000 people haven't been Stilled, and they look for a way to free the stilled from their bonds. Fortunately technology wasn't Stilled, and many medical professionals look for a way to get things to move.   While some are patiently waiting for a promised cure, others are not so patient, they know that there is no way in hell this is natural. One of these people is Lilian Ritter, a 18 year old, stubborn, sarcastic brunette teenager from New Orlando. Along with her merry band of renegades, and some renegades against the government she meets in her travels, and she narrowly avoids the extremely merciless and secretive government that wants to know the truth from the themselves.     Carrying the most stunning features of her parents doesn't help Lilian in her travels either. In the Still, she's catching the eyes of many here. The men include best friend, the renegade leader, and an eccentric doctor for the renegades that is looking for a cure, just to name a few.      But along the way to find out the truth, what will happen if the Still, aren't as still as before?

"You should really tell him soon," Austin said as he walked closer to me. "It's complicated," I sighed, avoiding eye contact with the greek god standing before me. "Try me," Austin took another step towards me and once again I moved away from him. My back hit the wall, preventing me from moving any further. "It's just that I didn't want to upset him if it turned out that this wasn't going anywhere," "So now what?" He asked. "Violet I like you a lot, this isn't just some fling," he took a final step toward me and placed both hands on the wall besides my head so I was trapped. I gulped at his words. "Do you really mean it? Because if I'm going to tell him and risk our friendship I need to know that I'm not going to catch you making out with some cheerleader next week," Austin leaned his head forward and nuzzled into my neck. "I want to try and make this work," he said huskily before trailing kisses up my neck and along my jaw. "Okay, I'll tell him," *** Like most of the female population at her school, Violet is completely and utterly head over heels in love with the sex god that is Austin Hendrix. Unlike most of the female population at her school, Violet just so happens to be best friends with Austin's brother, essentially meaning that Austin is off limits, not that that matters since Austin wouldn't even breathe in Violet's direction right? Wrong. After having Violet literally fall for him at a concert, Austin can't seem to get the girl with the sarcastic tongue and muddy converse out of his mind. Throw in Violet's over controlling dad, a phyco ex booty call and the fact that Austin has a knack for charming girls out of their dresses and things may get a little ... complicated. ** As much as I wish I took the picture of the sex god on my cover picture I didn't so credit to whoever that lucky person is**
