Some of us got to survive with the help of the government which built an entire city that would protect everyone from the virus that appeared right after the radiation went away. The city was like a fortress, no one could enter and no one could leave...except the people executed who defied the government rules. But who thought that...together they might witness the end of their world?

But can she forgive them, or will she let them face the nightmare they never saw coming? Things get even more complicated when she's forced to team up with the most infuriating guy she's ever met. Will he break through her walls, or will she push him away like she's done with everyone else? In a world where trust can be a matter of life or death, Stacy has to decide if she's willing to let anyone get close-or if she'll go it alone, no matter the cost.
