    <book_description><![CDATA[<i>They tell the story of our mating as a warning…</i><br /><br /><b>Izzy</b><br />In my pack, I’m a cautionary tale, the female who made her mate wait too long and drove him into rut.<br /><br />After that terrible night, Trevor was exiled, and I became a lesson to others that Fate always wins. Fight, and you’ll lose.<br /><br />But maybe I don’t want my life to be a lesson to others.

    <book_description><![CDATA[Riley Thomas has made some mistakes in life. She took a few wrong turns and has no idea what to do next. There's a blizzard baring down on the island and Riley is alone with two kids under the age of four. She's out of options, exhausted, and overwhelmed.<br /><br />An omega on her own always has to be on guard, but with her two girls counting on her to keep them safe, there's no time for a pity party. Seeing no other choice, Riley accepts an invitation to ride out the storm with one of the locals.<br /><br />Little does Riley know, everything is about to change.<br /><br />This book is set in the same world as the Ruined Records duet. However, Riley's story takes place four years in the future. There are a few things that will likely make more sense if you read Left in Ruins and Madness first, but it was designed so you can jump in here if you prefer. There are a few crossovers, but this is an entirely new cast of characters.]]></book_description>

He decides to call on the Devil for further knowledge and magic powers with which to indulge all the pleasure and knowledge of the world. In response, the Devil's representative, Mephistopheles, appears.

    <book_description><![CDATA[Vale Reed is doing the best she can.<br /><br />After a one-night stand gone wrong, she's pregnant and completely on her own. Cam shows and working full-time serving drinks helps stash away money for when she gives birth, but they also put her in the line of sight of a creep who wants her for his own. When he takes things too far, Vale has no choice but to run.<br /><br />Luckily, she ends up with the one person she really trusts.<br /><br />Bishop and his packmates, Holt and Mercer, run Assurance Private Security. They're up for the task of keeping the very pregnant omega safe. She's even able to repay their kindness when Mercer needs a fake wife to claim his inheritance.<br /><br />But Vale’s stalker isn't giving up without a fight, and it turns out he's more connected than any of them could have guessed.<br /><br />Will they be able to keep Vale safe? Is there really a chance for love to bloom under such dire circumstances?This is part one of a duet and will end on a cliffhanger. You'll find no cheating, no choosing, and a pack of morally gray men who fall first. The focus is on the FMC. Full content info will be listed in the Author's Note.]]></book_description>

She nearly became collateral damage in a war once before, but she ran, making a new life for herself in the seedy underbelly of Las Vegas.<br /><br />The High Roller Club offers someone with her skill set the chance to make her own way, and she’s mostly managed to keep her head down.

Severing the ties to her old life.<br /><br />Can Annika’s new allies keep her safe? Or will she have to cut and run again, losing everything she's built for herself in the process?<br /><br /><br />This is a standalone set in the High Roller Omegas shared world.

    <book_description><![CDATA[Arbor<br /><br /><i>I have to get out before it's too late</i>.<br /><br />Biding my time until I can make a clean escape is the safest option, especially because my ex grows more volatile with every passing day. Unfortunately, by the time I find a window to put my plans in motion, I'm already thirty-eight weeks pregnant.<br /><br />It doesn't matter if it's an inconvenient time for a move across the country. I take the chance, knowing I won't get another. Maine is like a whole different world when I'm used to Arizona, but I make the best of it. Only my little one decides to make her arrival early and during a snowstorm, no less.<br /><br />Morris and his twin packmates, Hayes and Hael, come to the rescue, but the baby won't wait. They may help deliver my daughter, but I fully expect them to leave once we make it to the hospital.<br /><br />It looks like we're all in for some surprises.<br /><br />After all, my ex isn't going to allow me to just disappear. And more than that, what alphas would want to take on all my baggage?<br /><br />Unexpected Delivery is a complete standalone with no cliffhanger. It's set in the same world as When She Needs Them Most and Whatever it Takes, but they can be read independently of one another. As with all my books, you'll find no cheating, no choosing, and the men fall first.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[<br /><br /><b>All my life, I was told an omega had to be three things—docile, dependable, and demure. <br /><br />Three qualities I am most definitely not. </b><br /><br /><br />Darling Academy is designed to teach adult omegas how to please their alphas, but I’ve never fit in with the other girls. I don’t know the difference between a salad fork and a regular one, and I certainly don’t care where people sit at a dinner party. <br /><br />My entire life is turned upside down when my dying twin brother is conscripted to attend Eros Academy, a brutal war school designed for the strongest of alphas. <br /><br />The decision is easy—I’ll pretend to be him and go in his stead. It shouldn’t be too hard to balance two lives, right? All I’ll need is a scent blocker, a body suit, and a penis. Easy. <br /><br />But Eros is not like Darling. Instead of dance classes, we learn how to shoot guns. Instead of politics, we discuss war tactics. Instead of planning dinner parties, we organize assault missions. <br /><br />I also didn’t plan on Alpha Team X. <br /><br />They’re huge, vicious, psychotic, and the newest instructors. All four of them are capable of instilling fear in anyone who looks directly at them. <br /><br />Quickly, I find myself balancing two lives, both of which center around Alpha Team X. <br /><br />I’m the “alpha” they torment on a daily basis…<br /><br />And the omega they obsess over. <br /><br />Either way, I have a feeling if they discover the truth, I’m dead. <br /><br />That is, if the school doesn’t kill me first.<br /><br /><br /><b><i>Knot What She Seems</i> is a non-shifting, contemporary omegaverse that takes place in a world different from our own, where all of the countries are ruled by monarchies. In this book, you can expect knotting, nesting, heat, ruts, and possessive alphas who worship the ground their omega walks on. There are minor bully elements. This books contains no MM, no FF, and no OW drama. It is part one of a duet. </b><br /><br />]]></book_description>

As a princess, my only duty is to wear the crown and obey the king.<br /><br />I was never meant to rule. Never meant to fight. And I was never supposed to be the daughter who sealed an ancient treaty with her own blood.<br /><br />But that changed the fateful day I stepped into my father’s throne room. The day a legendary monster hunter sailed to our shores. The day a prince ruined my life.<br /><br />Now I’m crossing treacherous lands beside a warrior who despises me as much as I despise him—bound to a future I didn’t choose and a husband I barely know.<br /><br />Everyone wants me to be something I’m not—a queen, a spy, a sacrifice.<br /><br />But what if I refused the role chosen for me? What if I made my own rules? What if there’s power in being underestimated?<br /><br />And what if—for the first time—I reached for it?<br /><br />The Shield of Sparrows series is best enjoyed in order.<br />Reading <br />Book #1 Shield of Sparrows<br />Book #2 Rites of the Starling]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College—Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s wondering how she’ll get through it. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is—unless she betrays the man she loves.<br /><br />Although Violet’s body is weaker and frailer than everyone else’s, she has her wits—and a will of iron. Leadership forgets the most important lesson Basgiath taught her: Dragon riders make their own rules. But determination to survive won’t be enough this year, because Violet knows the secret hidden for centuries at Basgiath War College—and nothing, not even dragon fire, may be enough to save them in the end.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[<b>The third book in Robert Kirkman's <i>New York Times</i> bestselling series:<i> The Walking Dead: The Fall of the Governor – Part One!<br /><br /></i></b>The Walking Dead original novel series, set in the universe of Robert Kirkman's iconic comic book, continues with <i>The Fall of the Governor – Part One</i>. From co-authors Kirkman, creator of the Eisner Award-winning comic as well as executive producer of AMC's blockbuster TV series, and Jay Bonansinga, Stoker Award-finalist and internationally acclaimed author, comes the gripping third novel in this richly woven, page-turning literary saga, which began with <i>The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor</i>.<br /><br />In <i>Rise of the Governor</i>, uber-villain Philip Blake journeyed from his humble beginnings directly into the dark heart of the zombie apocalypse, and became the self-proclaimed leader of a small town called Woodbury. In <i>The Road to Woodbury</i>, an innocent traveler named Lilly Caul wound up in the terrifying thrall of Phillip Blake’s twisted, violent dictatorship within Woodbury’s ever tightening barricades.<br /><br />And now, in <i>The Fall of the Governor – Part One</i>, the Governor’s descent into madness finally erupts in a tour de force of action and horror. Beloved characters from the comic book, including Rick, Michonne and Glenn, finally make their entrance onto this nightmarish stage, and fans of The Walking Dead will see these characters in a whole new light. Simmering grudges boil over into unthinkable confrontations, battle lines are drawn, and unexpected twists seal the fates of the innocent and guilty alike.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[He had his chance. He blew it, and I’m out of here.<br /><br />Flora<br />I’m at the bottom of the pack. I’m female, I have no family left, and everywhere a shifter is supposed to be hard, I’m soft and round. There’s one bright spot in my days—Alec Cameron.<br /><br />He’s hard in every way—so distant that he’s ice cold—but once in a while, he gives me a nod, and we sneak off to the woods. He’s not cold then. Not at all.<br /><br />I used to dream that Fate would make it official, but after so many years, I’ve given up hope. Then, at a pack run, heat strikes. Alec Cameron is my mate.<br /><br />In front of everyone, he turns his back on me.<br /><br />I didn’t know how cold he could be, but I do now, and I’ve got a choice to make. Do I hang around and deal with this messed up pack like I always do? Or do I take my new wolf, break free, and forge a new path of our own?<br /><br />Alec<br />This pack is falling apart. Literally. I spend my days patching together buildings that are inches from sliding down the mountain. In my free time, I have to compete with the other two males vying for Salt Mountain alpha, the world’s worst job.<br /><br />I’m constantly holding everything together, and until the night of the last full moon run, there was at least one bright spot in my days.<br /><br />Then Flora Ritchie goes into heat at the worst possible time and place, and in all the chaos and revelations, I lose my grip. And my temper.<br /><br />In the blink of an eye, my mate is gone.<br /><br />I know how to fix things, not feelings, but if I don’t figure it out, and quickly, I’m going to lose it all.<br /><br />His Curvy Rejected Mate is the fourth novel in The Five Packs series, but it can be read as a standalone. No cheating. HEA guaranteed. Intended for adult readers only.<br /><br /><br />Alternative cover for ASIN B0BZF1JXKJ: <a href="https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/247635732-his-curvy-rejected-mate" rel="nofollow noopener">here</a>]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[<b>You can only trust yourself.</b><br /><br />They say it’s more dangerous being a lone wolf. I say having friends isn’t worth the pain. Everyone I’ve ever known has betrayed me. You’d think by now, I’d learn not to trust anyone.<br /><br />My old pack wants me dead. My true mate wants to complete the bond. My inner wolf is a no-show. The decks are stacked against me and if I survive this, I have no idea where to go next.<br /><br />I’m out of tricks and out of allies but there’s one path I haven’t tried: finding out about my father. My mom warned me against him but at this point, how can my life get any worse?<br /><br /><i>Wolf Untamed is the second book in a trilogy. It is intended for readers 17+ due to steamy situations and dark themes. This book ends on a cliffhanger and is not a standalone.</i>]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[<b>They tried to break me. Now I’m going to break them.</b><br /><br />Cursed to never shift, the only thing I was looking forward to about the First Moon Ceremony was that the magic sealing me into Wolf Creek would break, and I could finally leave.<br /><br />Instead, the ceremony reveals my true mate: Tyler Grant, future leader of my pack and the man responsible for my most recent concussion and black eye. He’s as brutal as he is handsome and fate is a bitch to put us together.<br /><br />There’s a rumor that a mating bond could break my curse and just as I’m getting my hopes up, Tyler destroys them all.<br /><br />Instead of bonding with my mate, I’m beaten and left for dead.<br /><br />A hot-as-sin feral shifter finds me and helps me back on my feet. But his help comes with a cost and I’m not sure I’m willing to pay the price.<br /><br />With my former pack hunting me down, even an enemy might be a better ally than trying to stay alive on my own.<br /><br /><i>This is book one in steamy rejected mate series. This is not a reverse harem series. 17+ for steam, language, and darker themes.</i>]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[<b>My true mate has fallen—but I will find a way to save him.</b><br /><br />I've been kidnapped again, but this time it's by people who claim to be my allies. They're training me to use my powers so I can defeat my enemies and rescue everyone I love. Including my alpha.<br /><br />Kaden is my true mate, and I won't rest until I get him back—and break the mate bond tying me to the wrong man.<br /><br />But the secrets surrounding the Zodiac Wolves are even darker than I imagined, and somehow I'm going to have to convince the other packs that everything they believe is a lie.<br /><br />I'm a Moon Witch. I'm an alpha female. And I'll do whatever it takes to save my pack, my family, my mate.]]></book_description>

My fated mate is their new alpha, and he says he has big plans for me.

My new pack.<br /><br />Kaden thinks I went willingly with my mate and turned my back on him. I don't know if he's coming for me, but I'm not giving up 'til I find my way back to him—and to my new family.<br /><br />I'm an Ophiuchus. I'm Moon Touched. And my enemies have underestimated me for far too long.<br /><br /><i>Star Cursed is the second book in a scorching hot wolf shifter trilogy, perfect for fans of Jaymin Eve, Laura Thalassa, and Amelia Hutchins.</i>]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[<b>My fated mate rejected me—and now I've been captured by someone even worse.</b><br /><br />As the half-human outcast of the Cancer pack, I've been beaten and bullied my whole life. Gaining my wolf form and my fated mate is my only chance to change packs and hope for a better life.<br /><br />Except when my fated mate is revealed, he's the future alpha of the Leo pack—our worst enemies. He rejects me in front of everyone, just before the Leos slaughter my entire pack and murder my family.<br /><br />I manage to escape, but then I'm kidnapped by a far greater threat: the alpha of the mysterious lost pack. The 13th sign was banished from the Zodiac Wolves years ago, and I thought they were just a myth.<br /><br />They're real. They're holding me captive. And the dark, dangerous alpha is offering me something I can't refuse—revenge.<br /><br /><i>Moon Touched is the first book in the scorching hot Zodiac Wolves series.</i>]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[<b>They say lightning doesn’t strike the same place twice. They are damn liars because I’m losing count of the impossibilities in my life.</b><br /><br />It turns out my presence in The Buried Knolls could mean the death of everyone around me. If the cold reactions of Wild and the quad are anything to go by, then the coven can never discover what I am.<br /><br />Even though I’ve uncovered the demon king’s sinister plans and the truth about the supernatural game this coven plays, I must leave the knolls. Bizarrely, the place I came to for answers has become home. Hope. Community. I nearly fell in love here. Now the mating ritual with Wild feels like another excellent reason to leave.<br /><br />Yet when so many impossible things have already happened, I have to wonder about the size of the storm ahead... and whether lightning will strike for a third time.<br /><br /><b>If you can’t get enough of books by Elise Kova, Raven Kennedy, and Leia Stone, or the paranormal romance genre, then enter this supernatural game where the prize is love, friendship, and survival, and failure means death.</b>]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[I’m Tempest Corentine—twenty-one, single, and already dreading the next twenty-one years. Except one month ago, the impossible happened. I formed a magical bond with someone I’ve never met. The link appeared in my darkest moment, and finding this person is my sole purpose.<br /><br />Two issues:<br />The magus probably lives in The Buried Knolls.<br />The coven there might have murdered my family.<br /><br />My plan? Kiss the hot guy at the bar in case I die tonight. Knock on the coven’s door. See if the council kills me at the next full moon. Foolproof.<br /><br />Whether it’s fake relationships, a supernatural game, or unfathomable matching runes showing up on me and a gorgeous male grimoire, I’ll do whatever it takes to find the person on the other end of this bond.<br /><br />Just try to stop me.]]></book_description>

Now, I’m facing the damning consequences.<br /><br />The walls are closing in as I balance duty to grandmother’s memory with my impossible feelings for Kyros. Then there’s the freakin’ human-vampire hybrid thing to deal with.<br /><br />The problem is, I’m no longer willing to lose the person I’ve gambled against from the start.<br /><br />Our fates hinge on a single roll of the dice, and one wrong move could collapse the tower of cards I’ve painstakingly built.<br /><br />If that happens, I’ll lose more than I ever bargained for.]]></book_description>

My grandmother deserves justice. And, uhm, the third blood exchange did something to me.<br /><br />It's official. I'm done playing by paranormal rules. I'm making my own--and playing to win. Because if I enter Ingenium on my terms, there's no turning back.<br /><br />Winning is the only option.]]></book_description>

But now they are faced with a new horror neither could have imagined. Stretched to the very limits of their physical and mental endurance, the clock is ticking. They thought they knew what terror was. They were wrong. They thought they knew what pain was. They were wrong. This is a foe like no other. This is a fight like no other. This is a fear like no other. This is the end of everything.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[Before the worst day of their lives, wild horses could not pull them together. Now, nothing can tear them apart...or so they thought. A chance meeting, a bad decision, a stormy night; and the fuse is lit to their most explosive 24 hours yet. When the dead roam the streets; when enemies prowl in the shadows, and when strangers are not all they seem, the only people Wren and Robyn can rely on are each other. They have fought through hell together, but now, for one of these sisters, today could be the end of everything.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[For sisters Robyn and Wren, nothing will ever be the same. The cities are burning, the world is in chaos. The dead are rising...and they're hungry. Safety? Security? These words are meaningless now. They fight, they hide, they run. No rest. No respite. All they can cling to is hope. Hope they can find others. Hope they can learn the skills needed to survive. Hope they can stay together. Their situation seems desperate, and the only thing they can depend on is each other. But is that enough?]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[Seventeen-year-old Mireya is the youngest person on Earth in 2055. Well, one of them. She and her classmates on the military base where she lives are survivors of a global catastrophe that took out a quarter of the world’s population fifteen years earlier and rendered the remaining humans infertile.<br /><br />Formerly banned research into cloning, genetic engineering, and artificial intelligence is green-lighted by a government desperate to prevent looming human extinction. In fact, it was experimental nanotechnology that saved the lives of Mireya and her friends.<br /><br />She’s always been told this makes her special. She certainly doesn’t feel special. As hard as she tries, she can never seem to please her indifferent parents, and her periodic memory lapses threaten to sink her already-shameful class rank to dead last. <br /><br />Mireya’s never left the base, never wanted to, and never questioned why she’s been content to stay there her whole life—until she runs into Heath. Actually, he bumped into her with his Gideon Corp delivery van. She’s not hurt, but she is baffled.<br /><br />Why did the alluring young guy look at her like he knows her? And why did he seem shocked at her very average eye color?<br /><br />When one-by-one her friends visit the physician and come back acting like strangers, Mireya decides to venture beyond the gates of the base to the nearby city of Atlanta to search for answers. And for Heath.<br /><br />What she’ll find is the imposing walls surrounding Gideon Corp, the world’s largest corporation, hide many secrets about the cataclysmic global event and perhaps even Mireya herself. <br /><br />DESIGNED is perfect for readers who loved Hunger Games, Divergent, Uglies, and the Selection series.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[Thrown into the Wishing Well, Clio must find three keys while fighting to stay alive in a nine-square grid of fear. Whether she wins or loses the round, her wish will be read aloud. Clio knows that when King Ergondy learns what she wished for, if she holds three keys, her wish will have to be granted. But she also knows that if she loses, a swift execution will be the most merciful outcome she could receive. And King Ergondy is not known for his mercy.]]></book_description>

When a peacekeeper attacks me in a mine shaft, I fight back and win.<br /><br />Sort of. Because I made a mistake. I let him live.<br /><br />He knows my name.

There was only one way out that would protect us both: enter the Queen Trials and become a star.<br /><br />Now, I’m plunged into a competition with dozens of gorgeous women from all over the kingdom. My fame shelters my brother. My beauty protects me. Or is it my luck? Every woman in the arena wants to capture King Ergondy’s attention, but he only has eyes for me. How long will it be before my luck runs out?<br /><br />I never wanted to join The Queen Trials.<br /><br />Now, I must win them.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[A war for Immunity has been waged<br /><br />A formula has been created. One that will ensure immunity for all. But it’s been stolen as a hidden enemy undermines every step to save the Vulnerables. Echo is doing everything she can to hunt the saboteur. River is about to discover he’s more connected to this than he ever thought possible.<br /><br />As they both learn they can’t escape their roots, the people of the Dead Zone make it clear they’re no longer willing to be cast aside. Immunity should be granted to all, not just the selected few. An uprising is inevitable. And the wealthy inhabitants of the Green Zone are determined to end it before it begins.<br /><br />Echo and River will have to choose between love and loyalty. Because the race to find the formula has begun. And the fate of humanity depends on their success.]]></book_description>

The Sovereign needs to be protected before the Green Zone can claim her for themselves.

Soon, Echo and River find themselves in danger on both sides of the giant net that’s supposed to keep them safe.<br /><br />Where do you run when you have no place to call home?

    <book_description><![CDATA[<b>Humans saved bees from extinction...</b><br /><b>and created the deadliest threat we've seen yet</b><br /><br />The loss of bees was heralded as the sixth wave of extinction. Economies crashed. Ecosystems collapsed. Wars were waged as countless starved. Luckily, humans were able to alter bees' genetic code to deal with the hazards of pesticides and disease.<br /><br />Inadvertently making their venom fatal to humans.<br /><br />River grew up in the Green Zone, a haven for those who are Immune. Bees are free to fly, pollinating their prolific crops. Echo was raised in the Dead Zone where bees are exterminated so vulnerable humans like her can live. Stealing from the heavily guarded Green Zone is a necessary part of survival.<br /><br />River and Echo are both in their seventeenth year. They're both about to have their immunity tested. And they're both about to have their futures forever altered.<br /><br />Ultimately, they're about to become part of the final fight for human survival. Are bees really the enemy they need to defeat? Or is mankind a far greater threat...]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[Paradise must be preserved. No matter the cost.<br /><br />Long after the collapse, what remains of civilization survives in lawless wastelands, abandoned cities, and secret factions.<br />One of them is Eden.<br /><br />Behind its walls, children are taught what to fear. Men exist only in cautionary tales.<br /><br />The outside isn’t called dangerous.<br />It’s said to be unlivable.<br /><br />But when something impossible slips through the cracks, the illusion fractures. Whispers replace worship. Control tightens.<br /><br />Because paradise isn’t destroyed from the outside.<br /><br />It cracks from within.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[After barely escaping with her life, Ashen finds her way home to the Arc, thanks to the help of an old friend. After a long absence, Ash isn’t sure what she’s about to find. The Bishop’s deception and cruelty have turned her world upside down, leaving her reeling as a wedge is driven between her and Finn, forcing them to live separate lives. Worse still, when she arrives, she is faced with the challenge of proving to the Arc’s leaders that she’s telling the truth about all that has happened since she left home. As she fights an impossible uphill battle, she must confront betrayal, lies, and heartbreaking loss that will either lead to her vindication or her ultimate downfall. With enemies vanquished, alliances solidified, and old friendships renewed, the end seems near for Ash in her final battle against tyranny… Or is it? Reign is the fifth and final book in The Cure Chronicles Series.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[When Ashen heads east to New York City to find Finn's brother, she finds herself confronted by an entirely new set of problems.<br /><br />The city is a war zone overshadowed by the Behemoth, the largest Arcology in existence. Few are allowed entry, and those who go in never leave. At first, Ashen assumes the power structure is one she knows well: Directorate vs. Dregs, Wealthy vs. Poor.<br /><br />She's seen this fight before, and she knows how to win it.<br /><br />She soon discovers that the power in New York is held entirely by one young man. Known only as the Bishop, he's mysterious, unnervingly handsome, and smooth-voiced. His allure is undeniable, despite his tendency toward cruelty.<br /><br />But as Ashen gets to know him, she begins to question how he managed to gain so much power at such a young age. Who is the Bishop, really? And where did he come from?<br /><br />The even more mysterious question is....<br /><br />What exactly goes on inside the Behemoth?]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[Before the Blight, becoming an adult was something teenagers looked forward to.<br />But now, turning eighteen means certain death.<br /><br />Unless you prove yourself worthy of the Cure.<br /><br />On her seventeenth birthday, Ashen Spencer is blindfolded and escorted to the massive, mysterious building known as the Arc to begin her year of training and testing in hopes that she can earn the Cure—a powerful drug given only to those deemed worthy to survive beyond their eighteenth birthday.<br />Ashen has a chance to rise up from her former life of squalor and be granted a place in society, if the Panel—the mysterious group of powerful men and women in charge of the Arc—deems her year a success.<br /><br />She’s assigned to work for twelve months as a servant for a wealthy family whose son is the most alluring young man she’s ever met. At first, Ashen is grateful for the opportunity to earn her place in a society she’s always dreamed of inhabiting.<br />But as time passes and she begins to learn the truth about the people she admires so much and the home she left behind, she realizes she has a choice:<br /><br />Be part of the disease…<br />Or be part of the Cure.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[A bastard hybrid of War of the Worlds and Night of the Living Dead, Autumn chronicles the struggle of a small group of survivors forced to contend with a world torn apart by a deadly disease. After 99% of the population of the planet is killed in less than 24 hours, for the very few who have managed to stay alive, things are about to get much worse. Animated by "phase two" of some unknown contagion, the dead begin to rise. At first slow, blind, dumb and lumbering, quickly the bodies regain their most basic senses and abilities... sight, hearing, locomotion... As well as the instinct toward aggression and violence. Held back only by the restraints of their rapidly decomposing flesh, the dead seem to have only one single goal - to lumber forth and destroy the sole remaining attraction in the silent, lifeless those who have survived the plague, who now find themselves outnumbered 1,000,000 to 1...Without ever using the 'Z' word, Autumn offers a new perspective on the traditional zombie story. There's no flesh eating, no fast-moving corpses, no gore for gore's sake. Combining the atmosphere and tone of George Romero's classic living dead films with the attitude and awareness of 28 Days (and Weeks) later, this horrifying and suspenseful novel is filled with relentless cold, dark fear.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[Welcome to Wayward Pines, population 461. Nestled amidst picture-perfect mountains, the idyllic town is a modern-day Eden...except for the electrified fence and razor wire, snipers scoping everything 24/7, and the relentless surveillance tracking each word and gesture.<br /><br />None of the residents know how they got here. They are told where to work, how to live, and who to marry. Some believe they are dead. Others think they’re trapped in an unfathomable experiment. Everyone secretly dreams of leaving, but those who dare face a terrifying surprise.<br /><br />Ethan Burke has seen the world beyond. He’s sheriff, and one of the few who knows the truth—Wayward Pines isn’t just a town. And what lies on the other side of the fence is a nightmare beyond anyone’s imagining.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[The Undead Day Sixteen The UK's best-selling zombie horror series Now a best-selling audio book series on Audible A new landscape was formed after the storm and with it the promise of a new beginning. One race to dominate this land. One race to survive. Words were uttered beneath the Saxon while Howie fought the undead. Words that brought a whole new pressure. To be relentless and unceasing. To charge forward and never give up. To do what it takes to survive. That pressure was building and it became too much. Howie faltered, losing his mind as they ran through the fog and sought the doctors so desperately needed at the fort. The final act was a simple one. A stubborn man spoke through an intercom at the munitions factory and his words sparked such a reaction in Howie that he fell apart in front of those who love him the most. The Undead continues with Day Sixteen]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[Dying has never been so easy.<br /><br />Welcome to Book 4 of the Exploited Blood series!<br /><br />Chris and his crew continue to traverse an East Coast that's packed full of terror. Every step they take seems to be blocked by something that wants to kill them. That something isn't limited to the undead either. Chris and Lynn aren't your average immortals though. Rather than spending their time avoiding the sun and torturing mortals they choose to stand tall and make a difference. The big picture is the only one they're interested in. It may be the one that gets them killed.<br /><br />Other Books By RS Merritt<br /><br />Crawlerz - Epic tale of powerfully psychic zombies sweeping the earth ( 7 Book Series)<br /><br />Zombies! - A second honey moon leads to a race across a zombie infested country to save their children ( 7 Book Series)<br /><br />Son of the Keeper - A tale of witches and wizardry set in the modern day world (3 Book Series)<br /><br />The Zournal - Follow the hilarious adventures of Steve and his band of misfits as they battle their way across the country in search of the source of the apocalypse.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[It comes in waves.<br /><br />It's already too late for most of us. Walking around with bio-bombs ticking away in our bloodstreams. Bombs that are synchronized to go off together. Before you know it you're diving into the deep end of depravity. A pool of insanity you're never coming back from. Surfacing once or twice to witness the horrors you've caused before your soul takes a deep breath and disappears forever.<br /><br />It's not natural.<br /><br />The infections occurring simultaneously across the globe prove it's not a freak phenomena. Someone is behind the pandemic that's turning people into insane cannibals. Who'd benefit from so much death and chaos though? The humanity of whatever group pulled the trigger on this madness is seriously up for debate.<br /><br />There's No Vaccine<br /><br />Chris watches as the world around him falls apart. Bitten by a loved one he hovers in a feverish state for weeks. His recovery carefully observed by a group that considers itself above humanity. A group that sees people as prey. Chris becomes a pawn in the war to determine the future of mankind. Follow him as he evolves from being a frazzled twenty something college educated mama's boy into something more. Hopefully it's enough.<br /><br />Other Books By RS Merritt<br /><br />Crawlerz - Epic tale of powerfully psychic zombies sweeping the earth ( 7 Book Series)<br /><br />Zombies! - A second honey moon leads to a race across a zombie infested country to save their children ( 7 Book Series)<br /><br />Son of the Keeper - A tale of witches and wizardry set in the modern day world (3 Book Series)<br /><br />The Zournal - Follow the hilarious adventures of Steve and his band of misfits as they battle their way across the country in search of the source of the apocalypse.]]></book_description>

Dragging himself out of bed he sleepily wanders over to the window with a warm bottled water and a handful of Advil. Looking out of his apartment window he sees people running around crazily and a bunch of burning shrubbery. He decides to go back to sleep and see if it all goes away. When he wakes up the next time it turns out the view from his fourth floor apartment wasn't a nightmare. Armed with a blunt samurai sword and some stolen steak knives he ventures out into the fray.<br /><br />These aren't your standard Zombies but Steve isn't your standard Zombie fighter either. Join him in book 1 as he heads out to check on his parents and try to survive in a world that's gone crazy...<br /><br />*** Updated Edition With Updated Cover and Content Updates ***]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[The finale to the Zombies! series brings all the players together for one epic final battle. It's a fast paced slug fest to see if a new world will be born out of the ashes of the old or if the old ways will finally destroy mankind for good. A messy, bloody, dirty battle that has to be fought. Kyler struggles through the final stages of a second mission where his leadership once again seeks to leverage his survivor instincts as well as the brand seared into the flesh on his back. Randy and Kelly roll the dice to see if they can win their daughters a new life in a new world. Krantz sinks further and further into a hell of his own manufacture. <br /><br />This is the final book in a 7 book series.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[Welcome to Book 4 of the Zombies! series. This series is meant to be read in order, so if you haven't read or listened to Books 1- 3 yet you're in for a treat! <br /> <br />In this addition to the series the world becomes a more complicated place for Kyler as he's asked to do things that are gradually eating away at his sense of right and wrong. The people closest to him start to question his loyalty as he fights to maintain his self-respect on an increasingly slippery moral slope. A state away Kelly and Randy have no problem breaking rules and would gladly take a running leap onto a slippery slope if needed to save their girls form the clutches of the Brotherhood. For reasons they have a hard time understanding that group of thugs just keeps throwing resources at trying to capture them. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[If the zombie apocalypse happens tomorrow—how would you spend your last day? <br /> <br />All Dr. Brianna Lewis wants is a cup of coffee. <br />Coffee, to make slaving away in her cell culture lab at Green Fields Biotech a little more bearable on a Friday afternoon when everyone is home already. <br />What she doesn’t count on is a group of terrorists blowing up all the entrances to the building and taking her and a select few others hostage. Bree soon finds herself conflicted. Not only does she know their charismatic leader. She also starts to suspect that there is a lot more to this than the hunt for an illegal bioweapon—a virus that could potentially kill millions in just a few days—particularly as there is currently a flu epidemic raging across the country, and reports about violent behavior among the afflicted are getting more and more alarming.]]></book_description>

    <book_description><![CDATA[<b>Humanity retreats as the infected continue to mutate into nightmare wielding super psychopaths.</b> <br /><br />There's only so much that can be accomplished with bullets and bombs against an enemy that just keeps coming. Culling the herd doesn't eliminate all of the strong ones. The truly evil malicious beings that are shepherding their infected flocks to seek and destroy the last remnants of sanity on the continent. <br /><br />Against this backdrop of universal despair Yue, Drew, and LeBron struggle to navigate the currents of pandemic politics while still doing their best to help humanity survive. Assisted by the remnants of the US Military as well as the infamous Suicide Squad they do their best to fight the good fight. Guided by a strong sense of right and wrong instilled in the three of them by their late parents they're unable to just walk away. <br /><br />Join them as they once again step up to the plate. It's the bottom of the ninth and bases are loaded with two outs already. The odds are stupid at this point. This trio still has to come up with the courage to swing for the fences though.]]></book_description>
