Afterglow Rising Trilogy

They came without warning, darkening our skies.
For months, we fought to survive as everything we knew and loved was torn away.
Then, as abruptly as they arrived, they vanished.
Though the invaders left, the war wasn’t over yet.
New terrors emerged from the destruction, threatening everything that remained.

In a world on the brink, alliances will be tested, love will be challenged, and the line between hope and despair will blur. Will we rise above the ashes and forge a new beginning? Or will we be reclaimed by the flames in the afterglow?

The end of the world was just the beginning…

Afterglow Rising is a character-driven, post-apocalyptic, light sci-fi trilogy. Set in Austin, TX, survivors fight to move past the aftermath of an alien invasion. Little do they know, their fight has only just begun. With vicious creatures, abduction victims returning, and other looming threats, our main characters must figure out how to put the fractured pieces of themselves back together—lest they be reclaimed by the flames in the afterglow.

Afterglow features a diverse ensemble cast that includes queer representation, BIPOC characters, and a range of generations. Readers can expect elements of found family, heart-pounding action, and moments of light humor to break up the tension. And of course, a slow-burn love story subplot. 

Please note that this is recommended for ages 18+ due to the use of strong language, depictions of violence, and adult situations.
