Book Description
Looking for a good post-apocalyptic romance to sink your teeth into? Then don’t miss out on this complete gripping action-adventure series from Jami Gray that runs the gamut from heart-breaking betrayal to redeeming second-chance love. The world as we know it is long gone and in its place is the ravaged, post-apocalyptic landscape known as The Collapse. From the ashes rises a new breed of mercenary warriors called Fate’s Vultures, four enigmatic protectors who hold to their code even as loyalties shift with the winds of this chaotic reality, testing their bonds to each other and their found families. Steel yourself and get ready for a consuming ride through a riveting romantic suspense series. Vengeance can leave you blind… After escaping a brutal betrayal that left his world of secrets soaked in blood, Math leads a handful of survivors on a mission of revenge. He has spent years stalking his enemy’s trail, his focus crystal clear—until his nemesis changes the rules. When one of his own is used to bait an inevitable trap, Math must seek an alliance with Fate’s Vultures, an enigmatic crew guaranteed to screw with his long-held rule to never rely on anyone. Not even a woman as intriguing and perplexing as her… Outside her twin and the other two Vultures, Vex doesn’t trust anyone at her back, especially now that someone close to them is intent on betraying them to the highest bidder. To add insult to injury, when a lethally attractive assassin drops on her doorstep and demands the Vultures’ help, she seems to be the only one worried about the potential fallout. To protect those she calls her own, Vex agrees to ride out with Math, only to face a bigger problem than the passion simmering between them, one guaranteed to test the bonds of blood and loyalty deeply embedded in her heart. In a treacherous game where one wrong move could cost them everything, will two scarred souls survive vengeance’s aftermath? For fans of Kyla Stone, E.A. Chance, and Evie Mitchell, CAUGHT IN THE AFTERMATH is the third novel in The Collapse: Fate’s Vultures, a complete post-apocalyptic romantic suspense that should be read in order but can be read as standalones. This rivals to lovers romantic suspense follows the third of four evocative couples that will let no one and nothing stop them from claiming their happily ever afters, even as the world burns. *This is a heavily revised edition of previously released title

Book Description
ONE OF THE YEAR'S BEST BOOKS The Wall Street Journal • Slate • Kansas City Star • Flavorwire • Policy Mic • Buzzfeed “Necessary Errors is a very good novel, an enviably good one, and to read it is to relive all the anxieties and illusions and grand projects of one’s own youth.”—James Wood, The New Yorker The exquisite debut novel by the author of Overthrow that brilliantly captures the lives and romances of young expatriates in newly democratic Prague It’s October 1990. Jacob Putnam is young and full of ideas. He’s arrived a year too late to witness Czechoslovakia’s revolution, but he still hopes to find its spirit, somehow. He discovers a country at a crossroads between communism and capitalism, and a picturesque city overflowing with a vibrant, searching sense of possibility. As the men and women Jacob meets begin to fall in love with one another, no one turns out to be quite the same as the idea Jacob has of them—including Jacob himself. Necessary Errors is the long-awaited first novel from literary critic and journalist Caleb Crain. Shimmering and expansive, Crain’s prose richly captures the turbulent feelings and discoveries of youth as it stretches toward adulthood—the chance encounters that grow into lasting, unforgettable experiences and the surprises of our first ventures into a foreign world—and the treasure of living in Prague during an era of historic change.
