From Goodreads:
I was born more than a thousand years ago.
Put into a cryogenic tube at age seventeen, forgotten during a holocaust that decimated the world, I’ve finally been awakened to a more serene and peaceful future.
But things at the hospital are new and strange. And it’s starting to scare me.
Everyone is young. Everyone is banded and tracked. And everyone is keeping secrets.
The cute geneticist Michael Bennett might be the only good thing in this crazy new world where “life is precious” but no one seems free to live it. The problem is, I don’t think he’s being totally honest with me, either.
When I’m told only I can save the human race from extinction, it’s clear my freeze didn’t avoid a dreadful fate. It only delayed the horror…
Doesn’t it sound incredible?
Now I have an exclusive Excerpt for you from the woman herself, Karri Thompson.
Check it out!

After
Ella left, I was a naked, semi-invalid with Standup, a giant Gumby, on my back.
I drew my arm across my breasts and rounded my shoulders as the shower’s
lights, set on “tranquility mode,” exploded and sparkled against the glass
walls like the inside of a geode. A melody echoed from the floor like a distant
tribal song, its vibrations invigorating the soles of my feet.

As
the blood-warm water pulsed down my back, all I could think about was Michael.
There was just something especially alluring about a guy who had the power to
wake up a girl from the dead. Did he lie to me? Yes. Did he keep me from the
truth? Yes. But I couldn’t hold it against him. He had to. It was his job. And
due to his job, we couldn’t be together.

When
I left the shower, the mirror above the bathroom sink bore the refection of a
girl. The image grimaced at the hollows under its eyes and the paleness of its
cheeks, but then it smiled, pleased its lips were still plump and red, and that
its irises glistened like sapphires. Its brows were thin and perfectly arched
and its eye lashes long and full despite a one thousand year sleep of death. It
was hard to believe that reflection was me.
