Book Description
In a world reborn from ashes, love ignites amidst the ruins. In the year 2068, Europe is a land reborn from the ashes of a devastating war, where society has reverted to the elegance and moral ideals of a bygone Regency era. Amid this tumultuous yet refined world, Lady Arinna Grey is torn between duty and desire. Known as the Lady Grey, Arinna's leadership won the apocalyptic war that ravaged Europe. But now, three years into the official peace, the alliance she's maintained with the seven ministers who rule Europe falters under the lack of an external threat. They want back the power she claimed to protect the continent during the conflict, an authority they never authorized. With no war or terrorism, she is no longer needed, even if she safeguards the borders from a threat that is hiding more than is dead. How do you plot the downfall of a popular wartime heroine—a woman who controls the armed forces? One dent at a time... Adding to the intrigue is Baron Byran Vasquez, Arinna's long-lost love who has returned with secrets that could shatter her carefully constructed world. And then there's the stoic and enigmatic Earl of Kesmere, Derrick Eldridge, both an adversary and a reluctant ally. Their fierce clashes mask a simmering attraction that neither can deny, creating a perilous love triangle. As old flames reignite and rivalries intensify, Arinna finds herself ensnared in a web of emotions and politics. Loyalties are tested, and passions run high as she navigates the treacherous waters of love and duty. In a society where the lights flicker and danger lurks around every corner, can Arinna find her way to happiness? Or will the ghosts of the past and the shadows of the future tear her apart? Set in Europe, this near-future fiction series unfolds through the intersecting lives of a small handful of people and explores adult themes—both dark and hopeful—of friendship, romance, family, lust, and power. Because not all influence is good, and not all decisions can be made in time. Readers are calling After the War "a superb novel" and "Jane Austen meets World War III!"
