Would you save someone you didn't even know? Would you risk your life just to help that person?That's the question Amber Colburn asked herself three days after the bomb that hit her hometown. Luckily, she survived, but many people didn't. Some were even taken. Nicholas Barringer is one of few taken hostage. He has no clue where he is or how to escape. All he knows is that he has a phone, giving him the chance to call anyone. By chance, Nick and Amber meet, but not face to face. Over a series of calls, the two untimely couple plan an escape. What will Amber do to get her new friend safe and sound? What will Nick go through to meet this girl?- - -Heat burst through Amber's body. An ear-splitting sound vibrated her ears and bones. Her father had described the same sound once to her before. He said that if you ever heard it, then you had heard the sound of death. Of men and women's screams as they were swallowed by flames. Of precious lives lost and families ruined. Most of all, it was the sound of destruction.The night he had told her that, Amber had forgotten what dreams felt like.- - -Do not reproduce any work in this book under any circumstances.°cover by me°°#688 9/12/16 ;; first°#450 10/6/16 ;; highest°°rewritten 1/10/17°…
