The Stars in Their Eyes

by Kristy Gardner

Overview

Survive together, or die...

For four years, Calay and Tess’s love has been their lifeline in a brutal, post-apocalyptic world devastated by alien invaders. When Calay finds herself fighting for survival and Tess missing, her only choice is clear: she must find Tess or risk losing everything.

Reluctantly, Calay ventures into the nightmarish wasteland of the ravaged Pacific Northwest, alone. What she faces is beyond her worst fears–alien executioners, a mysterious stranger, the rise of a dangerous cult, and a shocking family secret that could unravel everything she thought she knew.

Good and evil blur as Calay battles to retain her humanity, confronting the darkest truth: to survive, she must embrace her true self and resist the urge to become the monster herself. With time running out, Calay must decide if she’ll embrace who she's meant to be and reunite with Tess, or face a future of terrifying solitude.

A fast-paced, heart-pounding sci-fi queer story about love, survival, and sacrifice.
