Summary
Raised among doomsday preppers, Becca Aldaine's life has centered on planning for the worst, but when her escape plan is jeopardized, she turns to the boy she is expected to marry and hopes for the best.
"Becca Aldaine's family is part of a community of doomsday preppers, a neighborhood that prioritizes survivalist training over class trips or senior prom. They are even arranging Becca's marriage with Roy Kang, the only eligible boy in their community. Roy is a nice guy, but he is so enthusiastic about prepping that Becca doesn't have the heart to tell him she is planning to leave as soon as she can earn a full ride to a college far, far away. When a devastating accident pushes the entire community deeper into the doomsday ideology, Roy reveals that he is not nearly as clueless as he has been pretending to be"--adapted from jacket.
