The Pulse Trilogy #3
The Thrust
In the gritty conclusion to the erotic dystopian Pulse Trilogy, one couple undertakes a desperate rescue mission in post-apocalyptic New York City.
Trent Taylor and the people of Letliv, a thriving fishing community on the Connecticut coast, must join forces with the survivors of the FEMA camp at Grand Central to save his sister Annie, who is living on the Tracks as part of the soldiers’ private harem.
Clarissa has spent the past year under control of the soldiers, but Trent’s passionate touch sparks her desire. She’s not entirely sure if she’ll be safe with the mysterious stranger, who still mourns his wife’s untimely death. But with her growing need for Trent, and the danger the women of the Tracks face—Clarissa will have to gather everyone together to fight the rule of the soldiers who keep them prisoner. Could their struggle for freedom—and love—mean an escape from this dystopian nightmare?

Although this book can stand alone as the last of a trilogy, I highly recommend that you read the first two books before reading this one because then the ending will be so much more meaningful and that much sweeter.
Set in a post-apocalyptic America, The Thrust mainly tracks one couple's growing interest in one another as their uncertain future unfolds in the face of overthrowing a tyrannical leadership abusing its authority in a FEMA camp. Able-bodied men, no matter the background, are recruited as soldiers while the females without families are paid with rations for sexual favors.
Clarissa is one of these women who was fortunate enough to escape in Book Two. Just as she dips a toe in the waters to overcome her crippled trust in men in the last book, her budding attachment to the male love interest dies along with him. Enters Trent, one of the spokesmen of a community rebuilding independent of the camps and any assistance from the UN one year late.
Upon hearing of the conditions of the deplorable FEMA camp and news that his sister Annie is among the women forced to sell their bodies, the community holds council and develops a plan to free the camp. Emily and Christopher from Book One re-enter. Jenna and Ken's story continues. We find out what happens to Evan and Annie as well.
Although not the usual BDSM-flavored read, this action-packed post-apocalyptic dystopian romance has some emotional love scenes coupled with the happy ending I've come to expect of Shoshanna's stories.
