Book 1:

Divided We Fall: A Post-Apocalyptic Novel of America’s Coming Civil War
____________________________________________

Ava’s had a hard life, and it’s about to get a whole lot tougher!

The deck is stacked against 29-year-old Ava. She’s a fighter, but she’s got trust issues and doesn’t always make the best decisions. Despite her natural beauty, she doesn’t score well in the self-esteem department. Her personal complications aren’t without merit, but America is on the verge of a second civil war, and Ava must pull it together if she wants to survive.

Ava has just lost her adoptive mother to cancer. Her fiancé broke off the engagement shortly after her mom got sick. She has no idea who her biological father is and her adoptive dad walked out on his family for the sweet young thing at the office 15 years ago. With such a long history of loss and abandonment, it’s understandable why she’s hesitant to put her faith in people, but now it’s affecting her relationship with God.

Meanwhile, the tentacles of the deep state have infiltrated every facet of American culture. The public education system, entertainment industry, and mainstream media have all been hijacked by a shadow government intent on fomenting a communist revolution in the United States. The antagonistic message of this agenda has poisoned the minds of America’s youth who are now convinced that capitalism and conservativism are responsible for all the ills of the world. Violent protest, widespread destruction, and politicians who insist on letting the disassociated vent their rage will bring America to her knees, threatening to decapitate the laws, principles, and values on which the country was founded.

Ava refuses to give into fear, but she simply cannot survive on her own. She must deal with her crisis of faith and learn to trust other people, or she’ll never make it through the bloodiest period of America’s history.

Book 2:

Embers Of Empire
____________________________________________

America has fallen, and Ava’s band of misfits is all that stands between freedom and absolute tyranny.

Political division in the US has reached the boiling point, and the second American Civil War is underfoot. Communist agitators have been successful in their efforts to intimidate voters from key states. The worst has happened. A far-left socialist candidate has stolen the reins of power, and his designs against the republic are absolute. With a sympathetic Congress, he will sign in sweeping bans on firearms, criminalize free speech, and institute a new government agency to root out dissenters.

Ava’s group pledges to launch an insurgency campaign against the occupying force in Texas, but will have to watch out for those who have been tasked with purging the patriots.

A handful of freedom-loving governors and congressmen take a stand against the tyrannical administration by seceding from the Union. They represent an America that wishes to live in peace and live free. But that idea flies in the face of everything the dictatorial regime holds dear.

Ava’s team cannot fail in its mission to liberate Texas. If Texas falls, America’s demise is all but certain.

Book 3:

United We Stand: A Post-Apocalyptic Novel of the Coming Civil War in America
____________________________________________

The worst has happened. Texas has fallen. It’s up to Ava to get it back.

Without the support of the Lone Star State, the Alliance has no hope against the powerful and corrupt regime which has hijacked the majority of the United States.

Still mourning her loss, Ava has seen more death and destruction than she ever bargained for. She’s finished with fighting, but she may hold the key to America’s survival.

An unexpected visitor implores her to take on one last impossible task. If she turns down the request, it could spell the end of freedom and the Alliance, but if she accepts the challenge, victory is by no means guaranteed.

Ava has endured as much heartache as she can handle, but if America dies, if the Alliance fails, things will only get worse. She has to make a choice, and she must act before the clock runs out.
