“The consolidation of power in the guise of public safety. It’s an age-old game that’s been played a thousand times throughout time on government stages large and small. The erosion of our rights is the slow death of freedom. We’re the frogs basking in the warm pan bath while the water boils us to death, and some of us don’t even realize it.”
Kyla Stone, Edge of Anarchy
“But she couldn’t save him. Just like he couldn’t save her. Not really. The hard work had to be done yourself. But that didn’t mean you had to make the journey alone.”
Kyla Stone, Edge of Anarchy
“Mix baking soda, water, and a few drops of lavender essential oil in an empty shampoo bottle and shake to make a paste, and there you go. Homemade shampoo.”
Kyla Stone, Edge of Anarchy
“She’d watched Quinn and Milo make a few dozen homemade handwarmers. Milo had shown her each step. He’d gestured at the Ziplock sandwich and snack-sized bags strewn across Molly’s kitchen table. “You just add a cup of ice melt salt, like what they use on roads and sidewalks. But make sure it has the calcium chloride stuff in it.” He poured the salt into the sandwich bag, then picked up the smaller baggie. “Add half a cup of water to this one and push out all the air bubbles, then seal it.” Milo had put the water bag inside the larger ice salt bag and sealed it. He’d handed it to Hannah, his face beaming. “Keep them in your coat pocket. When you go outside, squeeze it to puncture the water bag, then shake it to activate. Boom!” When she’d tried it, the heat had activated immediately and kept her hands warm for about thirty minutes.”
Kyla Stone, Edge of Anarchy
“It was a strange thing to step inside another person’s loneliness. It was like entering a darkened cave, feeling along the walls, bumping into sharp edges, learning the contours of a foreign yet familiar place.”
Kyla Stone, Edge of Anarchy
“Nothing that truly mattered in life came easily. That was as true before the collapse as after. Nothing was owed to you. Nothing. Not love. Not freedom. Not even family. Relationships weren’t a given. They weren’t a right. They were made. They were forged through blood, sweat, and tears. Through time, energy, and commitment. Through good times and bad, through hope and despair.”
Kyla Stone, Edge of Anarchy
“The sky was a dreary slate gray, heavy with clouds. The bright sun reflecting off the massive snowbanks hurt his eyes.”
Kyla Stone, Edge of Anarchy
“Someone’s pissed off,” Milo said.”

“Sheesh.”

“She had been naked in front of Liam before. He’d helped her give birth. He’d saved her life. He’d saved her daughter’s life. There was nothing untoward in this act. Nothing wrong. Not with her nakedness. Not with what she was about to do. There was no hesitation in her when she moved toward the mattress. No doubt in her mind. She lifted the blankets and slid beneath the covers. She wrapped the blankets around the two of them, tucking the ends beneath their feet. She fitted her soft body to his strong, muscled one, wrapping her thin arms around his, folding her legs over his thighs. She pressed herself against him, willed the warmth of her own body into his, her vitality, her life force. She willed him to live with every stubborn, ferocious beat of her heart. Liam’s eyelids fluttered open. He turned his head and looked at her. He said, “Hannah.”

“you. Nothing. Not love. Not freedom. Not even family. Relationships weren’t a given. They weren’t a right. They were made. They were forged through blood, sweat, and tears. Through time, energy, and commitment. Through good times and bad, through hope and despair. Love had to be earned. So did freedom. Sometimes it had to be earned again and again. If you weren’t careful, it slipped right through your fingers.”
Kyla Stone, Edge of Anarchy
“Who says they’re sleeping?”

“We honor civil authority wherever possible, to the point where such authority abuses the people it is set up to protect. Where the government threatens freedom and violates those God-given rights, we have a duty to resist.”
Kyla Stone, Edge of Anarchy
“It’s about control,” Bishop said. “The consolidation of power in the guise of public safety. It’s an age-old game that’s been played a thousand times throughout time on government stages large and small. The erosion of our rights is the slow death of freedom. We’re the frogs basking in the warm pan bath while the water boils us to death, and some of us don’t even realize it.”

“But it wasn’t. It had been naïve to believe it. Nothing that truly mattered in life came easily. That was as true before the collapse as after. Nothing was owed to you. Nothing. Not love. Not freedom. Not even family. Relationships weren’t a given. They weren’t a right. They were made. They were forged through blood, sweat, and tears. Through time, energy, and commitment. Through good times and bad, through hope and despair. Love had to be earned. So did freedom. Sometimes it had to be earned again and again. If you weren’t careful, it slipped right through your fingers.”
