Cindy Dunaway - 2018
Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear."After a political protest is hijacked by anarchists, mob mentality takes over and violent riots start breaking out in many of our major cities.At the same time, part of the west coast is trying to recover from a series of devastating earthquakes, severe drought, and widespread wildfires.These, nearly simultaneous events, cause a record drop in our modern-day stock market, and due to a national debt of over $28 trillion, the value of the dollar is on the edge of collapsing causing massive layoffs to start taking place across the country. Our enemies see our weakness and know it's time to try and take their place as world leaders, but they know they must find a way to neutralize our military strength. Two countries have come up with a way to do just that and have set everything into motion. Vince and Kim Johnson live on a farm 40 miles to the southeast of Kansas City, Missouri.After serving 17 years in the Army, due to an injury, Vince had to take early medical retirement. Now, the most he thinks he must fight is his ongoing pain. Little does he know that a chain of events is about to take place that will test all his training and leadership skills.They are reunited with family, inexperienced friends, plus four of the men Vince served with while in the Army, to prepare and try to survive what might be the start of the actual apocalypse.*ADVISORY: Our three-book series isn't for everyone as it's intentionally written to be a bit provocative, and contains some adult language.

C. Kuiper - 2019
At least that's what I think the pamphlet should say for my brand new school. Well, my second brand new school. But I guess if I were to get technical, it's still the same one, just a different scenery when I look out my window. Logan told me I would be safe here, away from topside. The only problem is, I don't feel safe, not anywhere. I'm not sure if I ever will again. Not after Drake. But I will press forward and try to forget my past, or at least that's what I'm hoping for. And to possibly make a friend or two along the way. Warning: This book is intended for ages 18+ It contains several violent scenes and many sensitive subjects as well as trigger words. Please read at your own discretion. This is a slow burn, reverse harem. So, don't expect to get the nitty gritty quite yet. I saved that for the third book.
