An Alien Invasion SciFi Romance
He's an idiot and he's going to get us killed.
Irritating, annoying and alien, if Mikey weren't Kane's brother, I'd slit his throat myself. We're supposed to be on the same team, but when we aren't trading blows and insults, he's knee-deep in a bottle of booze or obsessing over the smell of my blood.
I expect to be killed by scavengers or gangs or cannibals. I expect to be killed by Elise, a thousand years old, among the strongest of their kind and the one I'm hunting.
I don't expect to be killed by Mikey's addictions. But as I hunt, it becomes clear to me that I'm on my own, and that bigger, badder predators are hunting us too.
And they're gaining on us.
Continue Abel's journey across the post-apocalyptic Pacific Northwest in Saltlands, an action-packed, alien invasion SciFi romance with heat and feel. At 95k words, this is a full-length romance with a happily ever after. Future books continue the series from other characters' perspectives.
Readers should be warned that Population is a scary, dangerous place and Saltlands is even more gruesome. This is a bloody read!

This was an excellent conclusion to Kane and Abel’s story.

I will say that this one wasn’t to the same caliber of Population. For one, there was just not enough Kane. If you read the first book, you’ll know why he wasn’t in this one as much. But, it just felt a little lacking because of his absence.

The thing is, though, I absolutely love Abel. She is one of those tough, kick-ass heroines who you just wish you could be as cool as! But, Abel’s problem, was that she was dragged down by Mikey–who is, arguably, one of the worst characters ever.

But, all that aside, this story was wrapped up nicely. There was some romance–even if not quite enough–and the conclusion that I was hoping for!

This series does continue–and I think Kane and Abel are featured, but not the main characters. I haven’t really decided yet, if I want to read it.
