Ayden’s world has been torn apart, leaving him with only one mission: to protect Mia and her young sons from the chaos consuming their homeland. As foreign invaders tighten their grip, Ayden’s group flees to Brooks Lake, a breathtaking sanctuary nestled high in the rugged Wyoming mountains. But survival in this unforgiving wilderness comes at a cost.

Battling an early snowstorm, Ayden’s group encounters a local resistance force determined to take back their country. Faced with an impossible choice—stay hidden to safeguard those he loves, or join the fight to reclaim their freedom. Ayden’s courage is put to the ultimate test as his focus on defense suddenly requires an offensive strategy more monstrous than he has ever faced. Failure on this new treacherous trajectory means certain death for not only himself but everyone he loves. The stakes are deadly, and every decision comes with a price.

Resistance is the fifth book in the fast-paced Conquer the Dark series.
