Blanket of Snow
​(After the Storm, #1)

​Four months have passed since the night of the fatal storm, and "peace on earth" has never felt so good despite the pack's sorrow at the loss of family and dear friends; sorrow that cut deeply over Christmas, and during last week’s wedding.

Mated to three, and now married into the Gunvald lineage, Lydia has taken comfort and security in her she-wolf, the animal's strength and wisdom taking her deep into the still-uncharted territory of Lawrence's wooded home – now her wooded home.

But storms come in many guises, and as the January snow clouds gather overhead, Lydia's finally forced to confront the secret she's been keeping from everyone, including herself.

Twisted Roots
​(AFTER THE STORM, #2)

Five months after the storm, Taylor is the most comfortable he's ever been in his skin. Despite the guilt that occasionally creeps up on him over Sarah's death, he counts his blessings every day, especially for the love and care he receives and shares with his three mates - his pack. No wolf is as 'wolf' as Taylor's become, and the most joyful day of his life is literally just around the corner.

But something's pressing against the edges of his memory - a scent; a voice - there was something he missed in the delirious state he was in when he was bitten almost a year and a half ago.

Why it's emerging now, he has no idea, but it won't leave him be. It's grasped him like a need for air and he finds himself following the promise of something near, yet intangible; a truth he senses; something 'his' he needs to find... 

Right back at the start.

Sins of the Father
​(AFTER THE STORM, #3)

Ryan is the only one who fully remembers the series of events that took place five months ago, the night of Himet and Yemet's storm. Having experienced the death of two of his mates, having fought to keep his third alive, and having to overcome the realisation he unwittingly sent Hendrickson and Amelia into what would become their tomb, he finds himself battling flashbacks of murdering Nikolai and in doing so, forcing torturous pain - and perhaps death - upon Nikolai's mate, Carrie.

As Lydia goes into labour, the imminent arrival of their first three children - innocent of every dark thing in the world - has him questioning all his choices, and the need to find Carrie, whether alive or dead, becomes a thirst he cannot quench.

Jewels of the Crown
​(AFTER THE STORM, #4)

Emotionally unrecognisable to all who knew him before, Lawrence Gunvald is more than the king of wolves: he's a mate, a husband, a father, a dancer, and more than all of that, he is whole.

For five years, the Gunvald Estate has been filled with happiness and laughter – his and his family's. Mated life is the best it can be. His six children colour their home with their innocent exuberance, and Adam and Tiegan's two – soon to be three – are as close as extended family.

So when old friends in need come knocking, it brings the bittersweet past to the fore as well as a truth that remains hidden – one Lawrence had all but forgotten he knew.

Is Taylor compassionate enough to forgive him the crucial secret he kept, or does his compassion have limits after all?

And is his young and still-growing family strong enough to welcome a new arrival? One who will change the dynamic of their unit in intricate ways while paving a path into a future that looks far darker than the past five years.
​
This is the final installment of the After the Storm novelette series.

Apart from the Blood Never Lies duet, which offers a needed bridge between old and new series, I had no intention at all of writing additional stories for Eye of the Storm, but the idea for Blanket of Snow came to me in a very vivid dream, and it felt suddenly necessary to talk our main characters through some important healing from their traumatic finale, so here we are. If you choose to read these little treats, I hope you enjoy them.
