The Mountain Tribe series
“Something went wrong with the stasis pods. I’m in the future, as planned, but I’ve somehow jumped forward much farther than I meant to. There are no visible landmarks, and the forest could stretch on across the entire country for all I know. And I’m stuck in said forest with a man who’s convinced that I’m going to be the incubator for humanity.”

Following the River
Book 1
In the distant future, humanity is dying, there are no women left, and all hope is lost, until…
Grace Miller is one of eight women placed in stasis underground before a nuclear blast. But when she comes up to the surface, she is all alone. Now two hundred years into the future, she finds civilization gone, and in its place is a never-ending forest with a mysterious hunter who knows nothing about her world.
She needs to find the other women from her bunker, which means that she has to follow the stranger through the forest. His expectation that she’ll mother future generations of humans infuriates her, but she can’t deny the way her body responds to his.
River is a hunter in the Mountain Tribe. He knows nothing outside of the primitive lifestyle of his people, and even that holds little interest for him. Humanity is dying out, there are only men left, and those who remain are slowly starving.
When he finds Grace stumbling through the forest, he knows two things for certain. The first is that she can save the human race by mating with his tribe. The second is that he wants her all to himself.
Finding the Raven
Book 2
Leah wakes up two hundred years after being put into stasis. But rather than the other women who entered the nuclear bunker with her, she finds herself held hostage by a huge, terrifying, deadly hunter.
Leah needs to find the other women and explore this primitive future with them, but the stranger refuses to let her go. He insists that she belongs with him, and him only. She hates him; his orders, his expectations, his unexpected tenderness, and the longing that he inspires in her.
After years of loneliness, and despair over the future, Raven decides to leave the Mountain Tribe without looking back. When he finds a female dying on her own, he decides that she must be what he’s been looking for.
Yet instead of understanding, the female meets his calm with anger, his patience with rebellion, and his desire with utter denial. Raven expected to find quiet happiness with his woman, but Leah makes sure that nothing will come easy, including winning her heart.
Baring the Thorn
Book 3
As the only nurse of the growing Mountain Tribe, Samara is running herself into the ground. After the latest close call, she knows that she needs to reach a secret cache of medical supplies out in the wild or any future disaster could end in death.
Her plan is simple: obtain a willing guide through the post-apocalyptic forest, find the cache, bring it back to camp, and, under no circumstances, fall in love with the tribe’s brooding leader.
When Samara asks the tribe hunters for help on a critical mission, Thorn can think of no better guide than himself. He’s capable, he’s efficient, he’s a strong leader, and he can’t stand the thought of her disappearing into the wilderness with another man.
Thorn has always considered himself reserved, yet everything about Samara brings his guard down. Telling her how he really feels for her could be dangerous. But telling her the truth about the world could destroy everything…
