"Hope" has received recognition from Wattpad in being added to their reading list "Black and White" - The Art of Contrast! My name is Jerry Brookes. 20 years ago is when it all started. For four years I survived in the world. I killed, scavenged and stole, all to survive. Then I came across a sanctuary called "The Village". I lived there for 16 years, watching over Ash, the girl I swore to protect after her father passed away. We had running water, food, drinks, a pool, a tennis court, a church... We had a community, a place without infection. We had a sanctuary that made us forget about the outside world. Had. We've been driving for about three hours now. The Village far behind us. The threat we thought was gone, is more powerful than before. Our fantasy is over, we are faced with the real world now... I just hope we can survive. An intense thriller set in a post-apocalyptic world, Hope follows the journey of a group of survivors on their quest to find a safe haven in a world run by infected creatures that feed on humans.

When Thomas wakes up in the throws of transitioning into one of them, Spencer is assigned to train the newly sired vampire. He thinks it'll be fun, but it could turn the afterlife upside down for everyone, even the people Spencer didn't know existed. Spencer is about to learn that the rules he has been abiding by since his death are all lies. And he must help Thomas adjust to his new life before they are turned from predator to prey. TEETH: THE FIRST BITE is the first book in the TEETH series.

SPOILER ALERT: If you haven't read the first book in The Magdeburg Trilogy, THE NIGHT HAS TEETH, information is revealed in the blurb below that contains spoilers. NOTE: I WILL BE POSTING ONE CHAPTER PER WEEK ON FRIDAY DECEMBER 5, 12 & 19 ONLY. What happens when you’re the thing that goes bump in the night? Connor Lewis and Arden LaTène are experiencing a reversal of fortunes. Arden, once a prominent werewolf, has been cured against his will. As a result, he’s now considered dead by his former pack and has lost his longtime girlfriend in the mix. Connor, a newly created werewolf whose DNA has inadvertently led to the creation of the cure, now has to make some important decisions about his future and is not sure who to trust. Should he join a pack or try to go it alone? When Connor is summoned by the Hounds of God to testify against the human scientist who developed the cure, he’s forced to choose sides. Comprised of humans bitten by werewolves, the Hounds have been the lawmakers and enforcers for hundreds of years, ensuring werewolves don’t endanger the lives of humans and exacting justice upon those who do. On the other hand, the pack werewolves have been persecuted for centuries and are seeking to tip the balance of power. Adding to his confusion is Madison Dallaire, the girl Connor has complicated feelings for, who has embarked on a path of corporate espionage. In the second book of The Magdeburg Trilogy, Connor’s loyalties are pushed to the limits as he faces the challenges of being a modern werewolf caught in the grip of an ancient feud.
