Ashley Keller was prepared for the end of the world.  She wasn't prepared for Jake Parker to need her help surviving it.   Soon to be available complete on Amazon as an ebook and paperback!

Ashley Keller's life has been a series of worst-case scenarios... literally.  Her mother creates them to teach Ashley survival skills.  Shooting, foraging, cooking with whatever strange or spoiled food her mother has left in the kitchen as yet another test... The constant training leaves Ashley's social life as barren as the wasteland her mother is preparing her for, with an ex-girlfriend who doesn't talk to Ashley anymore and Jake Parker, Ashley's major crush, unaware she even exists.

Her only friend is her younger brother, Hunter, who believes the flickering power and emptying grocery stores prove their mother's version of the future is closer than people think.  Ashley would rather ignore the signs and just hide her freakish expertise, but when their high school shuts down and Jake shows up at Ashley's house begging for food, she is forced to confront a world where her embarrassing skills might not only keep her and Jake alive, but bring them together.
