Eruption
I’m in the middle of the perfect college semester, hundreds of miles from Mom, with an awesome roomie and my freshman crush finally becoming a sophomore reality—Hotness! I’m figuring out calculus, I’ve got both hands on the handlebars and the wind of freedom in my hair. What on earth could slow my roll?
How about if the Yellowstone volcano erupts for the first time in 630,000 years, spewing a continuous load of ash (crap) all over North America? Think that’ll put a kink in my bicycle chain?
Make that kinks, plural, because here’s a scientific fact I’ll bet you didn’t know. Nothing ruins the perfect semester like a super caldera. Now that I’ve made you smarter today, maybe you can tell me how to keep my life cruising in the right direction—no to Mom, yes to roomie, double yes to Hotness!—during a global disaster?
My lame name is Violet and, in the interest of full disclosure, I’m not hanging from the side of a cinder cone on the last page of this trauma, but there’s definitely more to come. Unless, of course, humans become extinct and then there’s not. Duh.
Eruption is book one in the Yellowblown™ Series.

“Eruption” is the first book in the series. It is the type of story that is very believable and frightening, knowing a natural disaster like this could really happen.

Eruption, book 1, is off to a nice start in the Yellowblown series. The story immediately introduces us to Violet, a girl going to college and leading what seems a normal life until disaster hits, a devastating eruption that leaves what felt like a virtual wasteland behind.
Once the volcano erupts, Violet is forced to see the devastating impact the eruption left in its wake. Reality check number one coming in the form of her school getting shut down and forcing her back to her parent’s ranch.
I loved the way the author clearly pulled from her knowledge of what effects an eruption would have across the land and her imagination in pulling together a romance during a catastrophic natural disaster such as this.
I enjoyed reading about Boone and Violet. Boone was detailed wonderfully and it was a pleasure to read about Violet’s feelings. The end was satisfying and while there were no OMG Cliffhanger moments, I would love to pick up the next book to see where the author takes this.
