ABOUT

Mortal danger.

Intimate, tender romance.

A cycle of abuse to end.

A paramilitary cult to escape. 

    Secret lovers Emmalee and Niko dream of a quiet life, but they’re born into a paramilitary cult—a violent patriarchy that breeds children as weapons-for-hire—and they hate it. If they dissent, they die, and their parents are brainwashed leadership.

    Expectations are high for Niko, the son of cult executioners, and his dissociative PTSD sells his emotionless killer image. But Emmalee’s empathic sixth sense knows Niko’s truth; he’s actually a crybaby who hates violence. Similarly, the cult deems Emmalee useless due to her chronic illness, but Niko knows she’s the lion-hearted leader the world needs.

    To prove her worth to the ableist world, Emmalee sabotages a cult superior’s deadly drug trial. Except Emmalee doesn’t know Niko’s darkest secret; the cult superior is also Niko’s sexual abuser.

    When Niko’s abuser threatens not only them, but the entire nation with a dimension-altering experiment, Emmalee and Niko have to end the abuse cycle that imprisons the US without losing their lives—or each other.

    With edge-of-your-seat suspense and prevailing love, Soul Survivors is Book 1 of a psychological thriller series following two survivors' journeys to escape a paramilitary nightmare.

         Emmalee holds terrifying power, born with a sixth sense of others’ intentions. Emmalee’s connection with Niko – the cult executioners’ “Wolf” son – makes them prime combat assets, so their parents separate them.

         But Emmalee is sick of complacency.

         She refuses to accept what society has told her to be - a useless failure, due to her disabilities. She hates the life she's required to live - a subservient killing machine, according to her parents' cult. She never understood her parents' ideas of safety - distancing her from the one she has always loved, Nikolai Blackwood. 

          Rebelling her way to freedom is central to Emmalee's vocabulary, even when it digs her into deep trouble.
