When Rick Grimes and his group arrive at the Greene farm desperate for help after Carl is accidentally shot, Hope Greene—Hershel’s daughter and a former skilled surgeon—steps in to operate and save the boy’s life. Tough, sharp-tongued, and fiercely independent, she is the female mirror of Daryl Dixon. They clash constantly at first, too alike in their stubborn, guarded natures to get along, but as they spend time together, hunting, working, and surviving side by side, their rivalry shifts into a deep understanding and a powerful romance. Amidst the safety of the farm with the whole Greene family and Rick’s group, two hardened souls find the one person who truly understands them, proving that even in a dead world, hope and love can still grow.
