They&’re even arranging Becca&’s marriage with Roy Kang, the only eligible boy in their community. Roy is a nice guy, but he&’s so enthusiastic about prepping that Becca doesn&’t have the heart to tell him she&’s planning to leave as soon as she can earn a full ride to a college far, far away. Then a devastating accident rocks Becca&’s family and pushes the entire community, including Becca&’s usually cynical little sister, deeper into the doomsday ideology. With her getaway plans thrown into jeopardy, the only person Becca can turn to is Roy, who reveals that he&’s not nearly as clueless as he&’s been pretending to be. When Roy proposes they run away together, Becca will have to risk everything—including her heart—for a chance to hope for the best instead of planning for the worst.
Prescelta: Brink of Dawn
by Jeff Altabef Erynn AltabefIl mio nome è Juliet Wildfire Stone, e sono a malapena fuggita viva dalla mia sonnacchiosa cittadina dell'Arizona - un Cercatore mi ha quasi assassinata. Camminano in mezzo a noi come dei. Solo noi sappiamo cosa sono. Solo noi sappiamo che dobbiamo temerli. Solo noi possiamo sconfiggerli. Per mia fortuna, l'ho ucciso per prima. Pensavo fosse la mia prova - quello era il mio destino - ma pare che il fato non abbia ancora finito con me. Sono una Prescelta, un ibrido umano-alieno. Ce ne sono altri tre come me, ognuno con abilità differenti. Devo trovarli, ma non ho altro con cui partire che uno strano simbolo e una destinazione - New York City. Con un po' di fortuna io e il mio migliore amico Troy capiremo cosa fare una volta arrivati. Una razza aliena sta progettando di schiavizzare la Terra, e solo i Prescelti possono fermarli. Dobbiamo uccidere il loro leader prima che lui uccida noi. Saremo tutti messi alla prova, i nostri difetti portati alla luce. Ognuno di noi dovrà capire a cosa, o a chi, tiene davvero, e dovremo decidere se adempiere al nostro destino o... fuggire. Quelli che ci stanno aiutando mi hanno detto che sono l'Alfa e solo io posso giudare gli altri, ma come fidarmi di persone che non ho mai incontrato? Non so molto delle mie abilità o del mio potenziale, ma una cosa la so - farò qualunque cosa per fermare questi alieni. Non mi arrenderò. Anche se dovessi morire nel tentativo.
