Rylei Willlows is a complicated girl. She is smart, loud mouthed, clever, stubborn, and witty 31 year old with a lot on her mind and not a lot of time to think. Ever since the world went to shit she has been in Tennessee, with her only family that she has all ways had, her older brother Mais and her niece Carly Rae. After almost a year in this hell ridden world she has become immune to the one thing that used to control her; Feelings. She has locked all feeling and emotion away. As the world keeps going will she be able to? All she ever has in her mind anymore is one word in her head and tattooed on her wrist. Survive. Living isn't even questioned anymore when all you can do is survive off of what you can day by day. As she keeps surviving new people come and go, day by day. The only people out of all people she trusts is herself. She does whatever she does to keep and tries to have her group moving. But what happens when things head south and she meets a certain man in the woods?
