Gear up. Stay alive. Don’t fall for the guy who drags you out of the fire.
When the skies over Washington D.C. darken with an alien invasion, paramedic Blake Lewis barely has time to register the end of the world before he’s knee-deep in blood, smoke, and melted asphalt. Terrified but determined, he’s holding the line for survivors—until a private military group crash lands in the middle of the invasion.
Gabriel Lennox has spent his entire life fighting someone else’s battles. A hardened special forces operator, he’s focused on the mission. But when a sharp-tongued medic with a bruised face and a bleeding heart saves his life, Gabriel finds something more terrifying than extraterrestrials: hope.
Thrust together in a city burning from the inside out, Blake and Gabriel must navigate hostile streets, inhuman enemies, and a crumbling government—all while trying not to fall in love at the worst possible time.
“The ending isn’t as sweet if you don’t know what it took to get there.”
Call Her Filly
She thought revenge would be enough—until love dared her to hope for more.
Lee has spent years surviving the brutal underworld of the Akula crime syndicate. She’s earned her place with blood, grit, and a name that no longer feels like her own. Now, vengeance burns in her veins, and the end is in sight.
But when a soft-spoken history teacher named Benjamin stumbles into her path, everything changes.
Benjamin isn’t part of her plan. He’s a man who sees past the violence and the scars—to the woman buried beneath. And somehow, he makes her feel like she could have a future, even as she’s racing toward a past that demands blood.
As her war against the syndicate escalates and secrets threaten to destroy them both, Lee must choose: the mission that has defined her, or the man who just might redeem her.
