Escalation: (The Island II)
About this eBook
Giving my heart to the rebellion was easy. Giving it to Connor—the brooding, reckless leader I can’t seem to resist—was the real danger.
Our love isn’t just forbidden; it’s a target painted on our backs. With tensions boiling between those clinging to control and the ones ready to tear it all down, every move we make could spark the collapse of everything we’ve built.
And then the betrayal hits.
When allies turn into enemies and the rebellion falls into chaos, Connor and I are forced to confront the cracks in our trust. With an unstoppable force closing in and the island on the verge of collapse, we have to make an impossible choice—stay together and risk losing the war, or sacrifice what we have for a shot at freedom.
But surviving might not be enough. The only way to win is to start a revolution that sets Halcyon ablaze, even if it means losing each other in the process.
In a world where hope is hard to find, love may be the spark that lights the way.

About the author
C.B. Stone is sometimes called author, writer, or purveyor of stories. One might even dub her a yarn spinner if you will. It's very possible she might be considered just a little left of normal by most, but she's cool with that. Really, she's too busy avoiding normal to care. On any given day, you might find Stone pounding away at a keyboard in sunny FL, contemplating waves, contemplating life and dreaming up more exciting stories to share with readers.
Except Sundays, of course. Sundays are God's day, so you'll often find her making her best "joyful noise" with her local church praise team. When not pounding poor fingers to bloody nuggets and reinventing the definition of eye strain, C.B. Stone enjoys living it up, doing the family thing, the kid thing, and the friend thing. And in her downtime, reading the minds of fans.
Also being invisible. Being invisible is fun.
