Survival of the Unfit

It's a simple concept: kill someone ages 14 to 20, gain their best trait. Anyone before, you're pretty messed up. Anyone after and you're a simple murderer on Rushwood Isles, an island off the coast of South Carolina with a dark secret and a violent nature.

April Swanson is the new girl at Rushwood: a quiet, reserved cake decorator that works at the local bakery on weekends. After a tragedy snaps April, she embarks on a mission in for vengeance, closure, and explanation by fighting, in hopes of bringing justice to a wrongful murder.

Infamous Levi Wolfe, named the "hero of the North" had been around the block already. With an incredibly fighting ability and a dark past, he's been the protector of the island for more than a year now. Murders and crime has never been so low since he's been kicking ass. That is, until the new girl interferes with his regimen and gives every ounce of strength they have a run for its money.

Told in a dual perspective, a riveting story of fierce fights, witty comebacks, and romantic conflict is laid over a disturbing, simple premise: kill someone ages 14 to 20, and gain their best trait.

It's simple, right?
