When the World Went Quiet

The cities are gone.
The governments fell.
The lucky died fast.

Grace Selene has lost everything-the husband she loved, the child she couldn't save, the world she once understood. All that remains is the road, her healer's pack, and a promise to keep moving.

When a strange, luminous moss heals a wound that should have killed her, Grace begins to suspect the world isn't finished with her yet. Power hums beneath her skin-wild, ancient, and impossible. It could save what's left of humanity...or destroy her.

Across the ashes of the Midwest, rumors whisper of a place called Haven-a settlement where fires still burn through the night. Grace means to find it, or die trying.

On the same road walks Steve Rogers, a soldier burdened by ghosts of his own. Trained to protect and born to lead, he's searching for something worth defending again. When their paths cross, survival stops being a solitary act-and becomes a promise neither of them expected to make.

In a land where mercy is rarer than sunlight, When the World Went Quiet begins the story of what comes after the end-of healing, hope, and the kind of love that can survive the silence.

⚠️This is not a sunshine story. It is dark and gritty, while the characters will eventually get their happily ever after it is not a story for the faint of heart. There is mention of sexual assault, rape, abuse, forced pregnancy , abortions, murder and death. Read with caution ⚠️
