Publisher's Synopsis
From a very young age, Samantha Poulsen knew she was different from other girls - the unrequited crush on her best friend, Andrea, was just the tip of the iceberg. But when the earth's temperature plummets and you and your family are just looking to survive, things like finding a girlfriend and being in love become trivial fantasies.
Scientists first spotted the asteroid in the year 2004. They named it 99942 Apophis after the deification of darkness. When the asteroid struck the planet, it set off a chain of events that few expected - the first Ice Age in nearly 12,500 years. The flowers were the first things to die. Beautiful things of little practical value had no place in the new world that emerged because of the Frost. Now, two years after Apophis's impact, survival is all that matters. But when Sam's family rescues a man and his daughter - a beautiful woman who reignites within Sam all those previously banished, trivial emotions - she might be convinced that there's still a place for beauty in this new world.
