Cassie Sullivan is a teenage girl who has suffered traumatic events...such as aliens invading her world and turning it upside down. After finding her brother and taking refuge in a hotel, Cassie begins to realize that Evan Walker, the man who took care of her in her darkest hours, isn't all he's cracked up to be. Can her and her friends beat the odds and survive this alien invasion? Can she find love in the process?
