Two lovers awaken one thousand years into the future amid what remains of the world they once knew.
As they seek out each other, and other remnants of their old lives, they discover strange and often hostile kingdoms spawned from the last breath of what had once been the United States of America.
Justin’s thousand-year sleep ends with an awakening into a society utterly devoid of men.
All positions that men might have held, socially, emotionally or physically, have been replaced by women as far as physicality would allow. The existence of any genuine male, who they have no emotional or physical resistance against, sends powerful waves that shake the society to its core and threatens to unravel it from the very root of itself.
Almost instantly, Justin finds himself deeply entangled into their lives. He is more valued than any individual could, or should, ever be and he soon finds himself the centerpiece of every hope, the catalyst of every scheme and the source of generations of untapped desire. As the one thing everyone needs, but by no means available to all, he understands that he is a ticking time bomb. One misinterpreted act as seduction too many, or to the wrong person, and the entire society might very explode into an extraordinary level of violence that could leave most, if not all, dead.
