Apocalypse Days: I Rule with Foresight and a Powerful Son

Synopsis
You’d think seeing the future would give me a head start on surviving the apocalypse. I had it all planned—until everything I knew shattered when my husband sacrificed himself to save me and our son. Now it’s just me, my three-year-old son Leo, and my cursed gift of foresight that only seems to kick in when it’s nearly too late.
I’m doing my best to keep us safe, to find food, to make some kind of plan—
“Mommy?”
I glance down, trying to ignore the tug on my pant leg as I focus on our supplies. “Not now, Leo. Mommy’s thinking.”
“Mommy!”
I sigh and finally look down. My three-year-old is standing there, clutching… I blink. “Leo, where did you get a knife?”
He shrugs, grinning like it’s the most natural thing in the world.
My heart stutters. “No, really. Where did you find that?”
I try not to laugh. I mean, he’s three. Maybe he just—found it somewhere? But the next day, it’s a water bottle. Then, a tiny flashlight, somehow with batteries still inside.
I don’t even know what else; he’s pulling things out one by one with the pleased grin of a kid who’s just figured out his favorite game.
Well, we may just survive this mess after all.
Now, if only the universe could have spared me from him. I don’t even know his name, but I know his type: tall, broad, and annoyingly handsome, with an air of calm control that’s out of place in this chaos. Ex-military, if I had to guess, with a voice that’s just as infuriating as his smirk. The man has a habit of showing up at the worst—or best—possible times, with a gun at the ready and secrets buried as deep as those bright green eyes.
I mean, he’s probably useful, but I’m trying to keep my eyes on the prize here: survival.
For Leo and me.
Because, foresight or no foresight, nothing is guaranteed in this new world—except the fact that people like him are trouble.

only love 5 chapters in and I have to say I can see this being a really good book. very well written, grammar and it's easy to understand. easy to imagine and the author describes the scenes well. so much has happened already and you get sucked in fast, it's dark and I have already gone through so many emotions (good and bad) in this little amount. if you like these kinds of stories or even if you don't, like me, give it a try. I see a lot of potential for this story. I was worried it wouldn't be as easy to get into an apocalypse story as a comic but I got sucked in pretty quickly.
It's good. The characters are fairly three dimensional. I enjoy that the three year old acts like a normalish three year old and not like a super genius, or you know Detective Conan. I'm looking forward to how the characters develop.

I wish I could have read more. This is very interesting and fast pace. Im very eager to read more.
even though I haven't read the whole story but I can't feel it's interesting 😊
I really like it so far. not usually into these genre books, but I am already hooked after a few chapters!
Just beginning to read this book due to the event but it's interesting and I'm enjoying it
giving it 5 stars because Little Leo is such a good boy and helping Mommy going through this 'adventure' well~
Parece bem interessante mesmo! Uma mãe lutando para salvar o filho no apocalipse
honestly, first i add this to my library because the event, second is well.. that book cover! really like story that include child/children, third curious because imo the synopsis is well written. i don't have many apocalypse story in my library, this one is the third if i'm not mistaken, because the high tension when i immerse in the story itself, but.. this one really got me hooked! my heart's beating really fast from chapter 3 till 7 ଘ(੭'ˊ-ˋ)੭ fiuh～ finally it stop when i've nothing to read. surely i will stay with this story till the author updating new chapter. stay healthy and happy dear author ᰔᩚᰔᩚ
