What if you were bound for a new world, about to pledge your life to someone you'd been promised to since birth, and one unexpected violent attack made survival-not love-the issue? A ship heading for New Earth is halfway through its incredible journey across the galaxy. On board, 16-year-old Waverly and Kieran are part of the first generation born in space. They are in love. They believe their future is written in the stars. They have never seen a stranger before...until the day they are wrenched apart and suddenly find themselves fighting for their lives.
