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.

The Jakarta Pandemic:The People's Republic of China announces strict travel restrictions... Indonesia goes dark... Cases of an uncategorized influenza virus appear in major cities around the globe... Department of Health and Human Services officials claim that measures have been taken to safeguard the American public... Most ignore the warnings... Few prepare...Alex Fletcher, Iraq War veteran, has read the signs for years. A seasoned sales representative for Biosphere Pharmaceuticals, he understands the unique dangers of a pandemic flu and has taken the necessary steps to prepare. With his family and home mobilized to endure an extended period of seclusion, Alex thinks he's ready for the pandemic. He's not even close. The lethal H16N1 virus rapidly spreads across the nation, stretching the fragile bonds of society to the breaking point. Schools close, grocery stores empty, fuel deliveries stop, hospitals start turning away the sick...riots engulf the cities. As hostility and mistrust engulfs his idyllic Maine neighborhood, Alex quickly realizes that the H16N1 virus will be the least of his problems. The Jakarta Pandemic is a prepper themed, cautionary tale that explores the depths of human desperation, and its unremitting influence on our decisions."It delivers a vicious punch of violence and heroism for the reader to endure and admire. I could hardly put The Jakarta Pandemic down until I finished it." - Amazon Reviewer (2012) "The tension builds as difficult choices are made, when no good options seem to be available. I found certain segments to be uncomfortably realistic, at times creepy in the way you could feel things closing in around the family." - Amazon Reviewer (2013) "It makes you think just how prepared you really are for any kind of emergency. It makes you question your resolve in a potential crisis. How far are you willing to go to protect your loved ones? Every day that goes by, these characters have to question what is right and what is wrong. Take the trip thru this book. You won't be disappointed." - Amazon Reviewer (2013) "Pay attention as you may learn a few things in this book that could help you make the best of an emergency situation. For that matter some of the info in this book may very well save your life." - Amazon Reviewer (2013) "Anyone who has relished running to the hardware store before a big storm to stock up on essentials will be drawn to Steve Konkoly's intricately-researched and drawn breakdown of our supply systems, and transfixed by his description of what it takes to survive six months of enforced isolation behind the locked(booby-trapped, draped and shuttered) doors of one's own home." - Amazon Reviewer (2011) "I found the setting to be a refreshing change from other PA novels. Stories in this genre tend to focus on the world at large or center on a group of people traveling on a journey to find safe harbor. This novel centers on one family hunkered down in their home and how they interact with their neighbors on their street. I was quite impressed with the level of research put into this novel, the author clearly did his homework." - Richard Stephenson, author of the critically acclaimed New America series.

When Paul enters university in early 1970s Pittsburgh, it’s with the hope of moving past the recent death of his father. Sensitive, insecure, and incomprehensible to his grieving family, Paul feels isolated and alone. When he meets the worldly Julian in his freshman ethics class, Paul is immediately drawn to his classmate’s effortless charm. Paul sees Julian as his sole intellectual equal—an ally against the conventional world he finds so suffocating. Paul will stop at nothing to prove himself worthy of their friendship, because with Julian life is more invigorating than Paul could ever have imagined. But as charismatic as he can choose to be, Julian is also volatile and capriciously cruel, and Paul becomes increasingly afraid that he can never live up to what Julian expects of him. As their friendship spirals into all-consuming intimacy, they each learn the lengths to which the other will go in order to stay together, their obsession ultimately hurtling them toward an act of irrevocable violence. Unfolding with a propulsive ferocity, These Violent Delights is an exquisitely plotted excavation of the depths of human desire and the darkness it can bring forth in us.
