Burning Quest
She never imagined her world would crumble. He believed his past was behind him.
When the country fractures, who will you become?
When war sparks across near‑future America, college student Taylor Rhoades flees a city under siege with one goal: get home to the Colorado Rockies. The last person she expected to trust is Ian—the ex‑boyfriend with a past that won’t stay buried.
Roadblocks. Raids. Vanishing safe zones. Every mile forces choices Taylor isn’t ready to make. Survival is only the beginning as old wounds surface and new loyalties are tested. Comfort offers a quick escape. Conviction asks for courage. Fear demands retreat. Faith whispers forward. Together they face more than a collapsing nation—they face the trials of the heart.
Burning Quest is a clean, faith‑forward near‑future thriller about resilience, redemptive love, and holding to what’s true when the world demands surrender.
Perfect for readers who enjoy near‑future survival with a redemptive arc, character‑driven suspense with hope at the center, second‑chance connections forged under pressure
