SHE THOUGHT THEY'D FINALLY MADE IT TO SAFETY. THEN THE RADIO BROUGHT NEWS THAT DESTROYED EVERYTHING.

Some roads end in safety. Others end in choices that burn everything down.

They've survived longer than anyone thought possible.

Annie and Caleb Morgan are finally within reach of their father's fortified homestead—the promised land they've bled and sacrificed to reach. But surviving the collapse has carved pieces from their souls, and the people they've become barely recognize the family they used to be.

Annie is harder now. Shaped by choices that would have broken the girl she was. She trusts Dax—the quiet protector who never promises more than he can deliver. He's steady when everything else shifts like smoke. And that terrifies her more than any militia ever could.

Because trusting someone means they can destroy you.

Caleb has finally found peace with Evie—the woman who stayed when everything else fell apart. For the first time since the world ended, he can imagine a future. Something real. Something worth all the blood and loss.

Then the radio crackles with a name.

A survivor list from the northern camps.

His dead fiancée is alive.

The woman he thought he'd buried with the old world. The woman he'd grieved for, moved past, let go. She's out there, waiting, believing he's coming for her.

Now Caleb faces an impossible choice:

The love he lost vs. the love he found

The man he was vs. the man he's become

Honor vs. survival, duty vs. desire

And Annie must decide if the killer she's become is someone she can live with.

When every choice leaves scars and every path leads through fire, some burns go so deep they never heal.

THE BURN LINE—where love becomes a weapon, hope becomes a burden, and the only way forward is through the flames of who you used to be.

The devastating fourth installment that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about love, loyalty, and survival.

For readers who crave heart with their heartbreak and aren't afraid of stories that leave permanent scars.

WARNING: This book will destroy you. In the best possible way.
