Local cop Kaeden Pike is the perfect choice to help her but letting him-or anyone-into her life and heart is the most difficult challenge she's ever faced. Kaeden has never found the one person who fit him, until now. But how can he convince Liz that they make the perfect pair, especially when the end of the world is coming? Someone has to gather the forces of good to win this fight, but when Liz accepts the role, she finds that being alone isn't a choice she has to make.
