First Winter


Nathan Jones - 2017
    Having fled their home, they're now struggling to rebuild their town in a new location and make the preparations they need before the onset of nuclear winter. Trev Smith has assumed command of the town's defenders, and is struggling to be a good leader while trying to help his friend Deb Rutledge get over her traumatic past as a prisoner of Gold Bloc soldiers. His cousin Lewis Halsson believes he has preparations for the winter well in hand, and is now looking to the future for ways to bring prosperity for his family and hopefully the whole town. And their friend Matt Larson has taken over as Mayor, facing the daunting task of leading the town just as it faces its greatest challenge. On top of that Matt also worries for his wife Sam, who'll soon be giving birth to their first child without the aid of modern medical equipment or doctors trained in obstetrics. None of them can truly predict how bad their first nuclear winter will be, but they know how bad last winter was even though it was relatively mild. For a town cut off from outside aid and forced to provide everything for itself, conditions had been brutal. This winter would be unimaginably worse, not only much colder and with more snowfall but also lasting far longer. They'd have to work every moment to prepare, rely on friends and loved ones for support, look for help wherever they could find it, and hope for good fortune. The Nuclear Winter series continues the story of the five book Best Laid Plans series, with First Winter beginning soon after the end of the fifth book, Determination.

I am the taboo. *****************Liminal Academy is a three -book reverse harem series that will chronicle the story of Lilith and Chiron, originally seen in The Afflicted Zodiac, but also will introduce new, sexy characters.  It is not required to read The Afflicted Zodiac to read those in this series.  Evanescent (Liminal Academy 1) is RH, fast-burn, and contains language and scenes for readers 18+.  It will end with ‘to be continued’, but consequent books are quick to follow.
