Before the black out, before the war, before the invasions in other countries. The world was normal and in the United States there was Nicholas. Nicholas was the most loyal and rebellious Chicano soldier that America had. He did what needed to be done when he was pushed against the wall. He always pushed himself to the edges of his limits to save who he could at whatever the cost. Nicholas has always felt cursed as far back as he can remember. Everyone that was closest to him always passed on. But when his daughter's lives are on the line, he does the impossible and asks his cousin and his best friends if they can help him when he goes to war with the Biggest Drug Cartel that Mexico has ever seen. But in the middle of trying to save his daughters, his loved ones are killed and now he feels like he can never recover from his loss, that is until he meets Evelyn. Evelyn and Nicholas see in each other something that they have been yearning for. Love and peace. Will Evelyn be able to help him through his time of need or will she leave him because he is too far gone psychologically?
