Eloise always keeps seven knives on her body, one for each year since her younger sister's violent death. As the only person in the world with nanites in her blood, her mission is to save the life of her sister's best friend, a teen boy suffering from a fatal brain disease. Until she can't. Until the man from her past returns, just as broken as she is.
Dragging Eloise away from death - twice - isn't how Bannack saw his life going. He only wanted what was owed to him for his eight-year service as the villain's High Commander. Instead, to live a life of peace, Bannack must protect Eloise. She wants nothing to do with him. That's fine. But when feelings for her grow, he wonders if the love he worked so hard to forget, could be what heals his frozen heart.
Hunted by a powerful woman who connects them both, Eloise and Bannack must make the bravest decision they've ever made.
They must live.
Perfect for fans of the Divergent and Under the Never Sky series, and the genre-blending, full-of-heart style of Kerry Lonsdale, this cozy post-apocalyptic romance weaves an emotional tale of resilience, self-acceptance and forgiveness, and explores what it means to fight for everything you thought you lost. Metallic Heart is what happens when you take contemporary romance, give it a knife, and blow up the world.
