Synopsis:
After the Earth suffers a natural catastrophe that has brought
with it EMP-like devastation, Colton Rayner’s family must fight
to survive in an unfamiliar world. All modern means of
communication have been lost and times are hard; there’s no
electricity, stores have been looted and abandoned, gas pumps
don’t work, and there’s no way to buy food or call for medical
help. The family finds they must rely on horses, wagons, and
their own ingenuity and will to live.
The patriarch of this farm family, Harold Engquist, had tried to
prepare his loved ones in advance with the skills and the
provisions needed to endure hard times, but did he do enough?
Will his food stores attract desperate people who are in search
of food and clean water, or worse yet, the unwanted attention of
the degenerate Claggit family?
Meanwhile, Abby, a lovely stranded stranger, unloads her two
horses and leaves her truck and trailer on the highway to go in
search of help. She happens upon the family’s farm, which soon
pits Colt and his cousin Tyler against each other as they vie
for her attention.
This survival fiction / contemporary western / romance novel is
sure to pull you in when you join this family as they try to
adapt and look to the future.

Review samples:
“In a world full of Zombie and Vampire novels, it’s nice to read
a well-written post-apocalyptic novel that is so totally
believable. It was easy to get ‘into the world’ and stay there.
Superflare: The Fortunate Ones really makes you stop and think:
‘Am I prepared?’” — Nancy Carroll
“Superflare: The Fortunate Ones is a new generation of classic.
Every word, every detail is significant. The characters are so
well-developed and real, you feel as if you can reach through
the pages and touch them. This is worth your time.” — Patricia
L. Hoff
"This book and it's characters are so real I found myself
totally immersed in the story. I did not want it to end but I
was pleasantly surprised that the ending left me satisfied and
hopeful for a sequel!!! I will not only recommend this book to
my family & friends, I also plan to give it as a Christmas
present this year." — Rebecca Case
