    Summary

    Three years ago, Juliet escaped her father's religious survivor camp, ending up in the Boston QZ. Juliet created a life for herself in Boston, desperate to forget the trauma of her upbringing. One day, Juliet arrives home to find a mysterious letter which forces her to return to her home town.

    Juliet can't travel the harsh post-apocalyptic landscape alone, so she enlists the help of the grumpy and, at times, frightening man she works alongside: Joel Miller.

    Summary

    You handed Joel your heart, watched him cradle it in the palm of his hand, and then crush it.

    Ten years later, the world has ended, but he reappears like a perfect storm in the last place you'd ever expect him to be. The girl he knew might be heartbroken when she sees him again. Might still harbor some sore feelings, but she'd welcome him and his brother as old friends and survivors. That girl was too young, and too sweet. Too pliable, too giving.

    Unfortunately for Joel, that girl is dead.

    Summary

    “Ellie, damnit,” Joel says, as he spots her. Her face darkens at the rebuke. He puts his hand on her shoulder.

    “Ma’am, I apologise, I hope she wasn’t too much trouble-” She wrenches her shoulder out from under his hand and stalks away, not looking back.

    “Ellie!”

    “Cool it, mate,” you say. “Everything’s fine. Let her go. She was no trouble at all.”

    Joel rubs the back of his neck, looking behind him where Ellie stomped her way from the stable. He faces you again, and you see his strong cheekbones, arrogant nose and the full bottom lip, a little crease at its centre.

     

    Hello, handsome.

     

    ----------------------

    Finally arriving in Jackson from Utah with Ellie, meeting someone was the last thing on Joel's mind.

    Summary

    A large rifle was slung on their back, they carried a blaster in their hand. Even in the dying light you could make out the redness of their armour, so stark against the white snow. The sight of their helmet make your heart ache. Your owners had sent a Mandalorian after you, they weren't just going to make an example out of you, they would make it a spectacle.
