The Story Behind This Book

I used to wonder if the fountain of youth ever were found, how would it be marketed and would people believe in it enough to buy it. I knew I wanted the book to be a love story, but I also knew that based on my characters it would be an unconventional one, especially given the world where New Life takes place.

Praise and Reviews

Not Run of the Mill
All in all a good story with the classic good vs evil without having the run of the mill plot. The reader will be treated to phrases and characters that will stick with them long after the last page has been turned.

-J. Grove

Sci-Fi and Romance--A Great Read!
The warmth and humanity of Maria Hooley's characters shine against the dark, cold Dal-Worth city and the evil Lifers. I, too, am a Resister.

What An Interesting World
This novel is quite different from the others I've read by Hooley. It's darker, grittier, and starker, yet despite this harsh setting so divided by Lifers and Resisters, there is a sense of humanity and an exploration of what it means to be human and alive.
