Synopsis

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!"

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Autumn (also known as Weifarer and Autumn Raven) is a travel and fiction writer currently based in Maine where she lives in a small cottage lost in the woods, which she built with her husband and with the supervision (and approval) of two Cairn terriers.
With a Bachelor of Arts degree from Bucknell University in Studio Arts and English, Autumn once considered a career in illustration. However, an ecology course at Virginia Tech led to a Master of Science degree in Ecology and Environmental Sciences from the University of Maine in Orono. After graduation with her M.S., Autumn has worked for the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service. This was a great job that not only let her help the environment and protect local agriculture, but also gave her a paycheck big enough to support her writing habit until finally ... at long last she is now a full time writer and on-line educator!
