Behind Amber Sails (The Worthington Collection Book 1)

Evie Jane lived on the outskirts of the last vestiges of civilization huddled in the scant remains of the United States of America all her life. Though they struggled to maintain their home, she and her parents enjoyed relative comfort and security. That home now teeters on the edge of inevitable collapse. Implacable forces tear against its foundations. Evie's parents sacrificed the last of their savings and influence to secure her passage on the only chance for escape, the Lifeboat Program's flagship, the Pilgrim's Progress.

On board the massive ship, and en route to an unestablished colony on an unknown planet, Evie must fight to discover new purpose and direction. She struggles against a rigidly defined and violently defended class system designed to maintain a strict social order. Determined to recreate her own identity within her new confines, she pushes through the excruciating pain of the shipboard security to establish one place on the "escape" ship where she can find peace and solace. When a powerful, strange, and undeniably alluring young man invades her sanctuary, Evie catapults into a series of perilous adventures, striving to save the ship and the future of mankind. Along the way she forges unbreakable bonds with her shipmates and develops an even deeper connection with the man who propelled her into this new life.

Behind Amber Sails: The Worthington Collection Book 1 is the first story in the set.
