Summary
In the harsh Northern Waste where human life is worth little, ice trucker Raina Bowen has learned to keep her eyes open and her knife close at hand. She's spent her life on the run, one step ahead of the megalomaniac who hunts her. All she wants is to stay out of trouble and haul her load of grain to Gladow Station—but trouble finds her in the form of a sexy stranger called Wizard. He has the trucking pass she needs, and she has to drag him out of a brawl with the very people she's trying to hide from in order to get it. She may have rescued him, but Raina's not foolish enough to see Wizard as anything close to helpless. He's hard and honed and full of secrets—secrets that may destroy them both.
As they race across the Waste, trying to outrun rival truckers, ice pirates, and the powerful man bent on their destruction, Raina's forced to admit that trouble's found her. And this time, there's nowhere left to run.
Critic reviews
"Edgy, steamy, action packed, and plotted with nail-biting tension." (Library Journal, starred review)
"Anyone looking for something different will find [Silver]'s steamy, sinewy universe great fun." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)
"Eve [Silver] expertly fuses nonstop action and adventure; a cutting-edge, exceptionally inventive setting; and a terrific, take-charge, no-nonsense heroine in Driven, a fresh, fabulously fun futuristic romance." (John Charles, The Chicago Tribune)

Loved the dual narration from Lillian Yves and Vincent Lee Grayson
When Raina and Wizard cross paths at first not realising they share this enemy but in the battle to just survive they realise they must work together so they can both reach their goals. They both very different people .
They is great chemistry between Raina and Wizard . We have action, adventure , romance Perfect

Wow
It’s a great listen and an engaging story. I was thoroughly enjoying both the fight for survival and the love story. I couldn’t listen fast enough. I’m in for more of this world.

original and entertaining!
the story was very interesting and engaging. the characters well written and likeable. the bad guy was really chilling. the narration was faultless and I must say, I cannot imagine other narrators in these roles. Lillian's acting is so realistic! and Vincent switched between parts so effortlessly! both absolutely brilliant!

Absolutely fantastic!
When I first started listening to this audiobook, I was concerned that I wouldn't like it. It had nothing to do with the plot. Lillian Yves was managing to narrate the story well but Vincent Lee Grayson sounded dull and a bit mechanical. I only mention this because I was tempted to stop but I didn't and it was so worth it. In fact, despite my initial impression, I think Vincent Lee Grayson did a fantastic job and I really enjoyed listening to this book.
Eve Silver has managed to fill this post-apocalyptic story with tons of action, fantastic characters and a fascinating backdrop. These were contrasted with dark characters and circumstances that are horrific in nature. Eve Silver even managed to weave science and technology into the plot in a meaningful way. I was riveted from almost the beginning!
The best part of this book is that it is the start of the series! I am absolutely going to read/listen to the rest!
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

Northern Waste Book One
Northern Waste Book One.
Raina Bowen is waiting to meet a contact at a truck stop before her route, but when he doesn't show she's about to abandon her post. The next thing she knows, she's throwing him on her bike to make sure he doesn't get killed before she gets her ticket from him. Wizard turns out to be nothing but trouble, but Raina is determined to finish her run which means she needs that pass. When Wizard shows her a different side, will she begin to trust?
If you're looking for a post-apocalyptic world that doesn't revolve around Zombies, this is the book for you!
Audio Review:
The two narrators meshed well together in this duet narration. I didn't get pulled out of the story because they blended everything very smoothly.

A really good book that kept my attention completely, fast paced with some surprising plot twists. I loved the dull narration.
