Detective James "Bucky" Barnes is one of the NYPD's best organized crime investigators. He believes in the law because he has seen what happens when powerful men decide rules do not apply to them. Then a new figure starts tearing through New York's underworld. The streets call him The Captain. He targets traffickers, corrupt cops, dirty politicians, and mafia lieutenants who always seem to slip out of handcuffs. He never kills civilians. He never touches children. But criminals end up beaten, exposed, ruined, or dead before Bucky can get them to trial. Bucky is assigned to bring him down. The problem is, every clue feels familiar. The fighting style. The mercy shown in certain moments. The old Brooklyn phrases left behind like ghosts. Then Bucky sees The Captain unmasked. And it is Steve Rogers, his former best friend, the man Bucky thought he had lost years ago. Now Bucky has to choose between the badge on his chest and the boy he once swore he would follow anywhere.

She was born to burn his city. He was born to stop her. But when fire meets fate, love might be the spark that changes everything. Ibalon, the Frozen Philippines, 2000 Years From Now: After the New Ice Age, wealthy Filipinos survive in a walled city near a volcano, ruling through fire and fear. Outside, the rebel Bulislis tribes freeze and starve. Alunsina, daughter of a dying tribe, has survived ten brutal winters. She knows three things: the soldiers of the City of Oro killed her mother, the city hoards fire her people need, and she will never trust anyone from behind its walls-not even Dimas, a wounded soldier caught in her trap. But as sparks fly between enemies, a prophecy awakens: a hero with demon's blood will reclaim the stolen fire. When Alunsina's buried powers rise, Dimas must choose-his city, or the girl fated to destroy it. In a world where fire means survival, love could burn it all down. AUTHOR'S NOTE: Recommended for fans of The Hunger Games and Divergent, "THE FIRE THIEF OF IBALON" is a MULTI-POV on-going story wrapped in dystopian politics, action, and forbidden romance that will leave you questioning who the real heroes are.
