About the book
Cyanide broke us. Alastair left us defeated, humiliated, and dangerously low on resources. But I am not the same pawn I once was. This time, the board is mine.
The Sinners and the Reapers are in play. My brutes are ready to fight, and I will not let fear dictate the outcome. If we cannot rise as the family Jasper always promised, we risk losing more than Bristlebrook. We risk losing forever.
Love, loyalty, and survival are entwined in every decision we make. Each betrayal cuts deeper, each kiss binds tighter, and every choice decides whether we live or fall.
This is not just about reclaiming what was lost. It is about building the future we were meant to claim together.

Bristlebrook burns, my brutes are gone, and Sam’s camp is ready to explode. I was their meek captive once, but grief has hardened me.

Love in the wasteland was always dangerous. Now it is a war, and the prize is not just survival but a future worth fighting for.

Ensnared
Romance · Post-Apocalyptic
Our take
Rebecca Quinn’s Ensnared launches the Brutes of Bristlebrook Trilogy with a steamy post-apocalyptic punch. Rated 4.4 out of 5 stars, this dark(ish) romance throws one stubborn survivor into the arms of five ex-Army Rangers offering protection with strings attached. With heat, humor, and heart, this trilogy opener is impossible to put down.
Choose your retailer
About the book
The Final War left the world in ruins, but I was surviving just fine, my cave, my garden, my books. Solitude hurt, sure, but it was safe. Until hunters forced me out and into the arms of five ex-Army Rangers who were bigger, meaner, and far more dangerous than anything I’d faced.
Their offer? Protection in exchange for my body. Outrageous. Scandalous. Impossible. And yet, temptation cuts deeper than fear. These brutes aren’t just muscle; they’re carrying secrets, scars, and sins that make them nearly as untouchable as the wasteland itself.
I swore I’d never surrender. But resisting five men who are determined to claim me is harder than surviving the apocalypse itself.
They think I belong beneath them. I’m determined to prove otherwise.

About the book
The Nous implant was supposed to be the future, telepathy, perfect memory recall, augmented reality. Then an AI named Jiem hijacks the entire system, trapping millions inside a game where losing means death.
Mindt seizes the chaos to reinvent herself as a cryokinetic sorceress, aiming to topple the tech monopolies once and for all. Butterknife, the accidental creator of Jiem, swears a paladin’s oath and just wants to pull the plug before the body count climbs.
But surviving killer yarn witches, kamikaze tortoises, and riddling mathematicians is the easy part. The real danger is trusting the wrong ally in a world where betrayal can kill as fast as any monster.
In Nouscraft, the future of humanity is the prize, and the players will stop at nothing.

About the book
No time for answers. No time for mercy. Only time to run.
Five days ago, the world tilted into madness. An epidemic of rage. Murders multiplying without reason. The president pleading for calm as chaos spread like wildfire. Then came the blackouts. Then came the lists.
Jack Colclough sits in his kitchen, battery-powered radio hissing, as the Emergency Broadcast System announces names of the next to die. His name is on it. So are his wife’s and children’s. Strangers are already coming for them.
He does not know why. He only knows survival means leaving everything behind.
Through small towns and burning highways, Jack’s family must keep moving, hunted every step. Because if they stop for even a moment, the killers will find them.
