Torn Apart

Rate this book
Book 2 of the YA apocalyptic Wasteland trilogy.

What if the fight for survival isn’t worth the cost?

The collective isn’t the safe haven Alessandro had hoped it would be. Many of the members suspect he’d sell them out in an instant for his own benefit, and the threat of more assaults coupled with the dwindling food supply have left them with no other choice than to search for a more defensible location.

Valeria is doing her best to grapple with her losses and adjust to her new reality, but when the collective’s leaders reveal the location of a secret underground agricultural facility and announce plans to move there, she fears they’re putting too much stock in the hope that the facility will be their salvation. Yet if everyone is to survive, they’ll need the facility’s technology to grow their own food.

The perilous journey turns out to be the least of their worries. After a devastating betrayal, can the collective find the will to stay together or will they too dissolve, pitting member against member in a deadly battle for existence?

About the author

Nicole Ciacchella

Nicole has never met a genre she doesn't like. She dabbles in everything from science fiction to contemporary rom-coms to fantasy fiction.

Nicole has previously published under the pen names Elizabeth Darcy and Anne Wentworth, but is no longer using those names.

Nicole has had a lifelong passion for the written word. As a child, one of her most treasured Christmas gifts was an electric typewriter, which enabled her to crank out her stories even more quickly than she could with a pen. Naturally, the personal computer is one of her favorite inventions. When she isn't writing, Nicole can usually be found curled up in a chair, whiling away the hours with a good book.

One of Nicole's other great passions is travel, and she has visited Europe, as well as traveling to many of the fifty states. Her favorite trips include visits to Paris, Maui, and various parts of Belgium. She feels fortunate that she is married to a native Belgian, as it gives her plenty of reasons to visit Europe as often as possible. Also, it gives her an excuse to eat Belgian waffles regularly.

Born and raised in Michigan, Nicole lives there still with her husband and two beautiful children. She thinks Michigan is the greatest state in the country, and Michigan State University is the greatest university in the world.
