Penance

By: Eaton, Pam

Survive the prison. Protect your own. Guard your heart.

In the shattered remains of the United States, Missy Strongfield was raised to be battle-ready-trained by her rebel father to fight, defend, and protect. Still, even she wasn't prepared for life inside New Atlanta's most notorious prison, where she and other rebel teens are being held as retribution for their parents' crimes.

The plan was simple: stay quiet, stay alive. But after Missy's friend Mosiah is viciously attacked, she agrees to fight in the deadly prison pits to keep him safe. Laying low is no longer an option.

Now, the group's survival means that Missy must gain respect from the one prisoner who just might be able to protect them: the charismatic guy with a southern drawl, a brutal reputation, and a gaze that sets her heart racing.

With war looming and the cost of survival rising by the day, Missy will have to decide what she's willing to fight for...and who she's willing to become in the process.

Penance is a gripping dystopian with high-stakes action, found family, and slow burn romance.
