Swearing off sex is anything but easy for bad girl Shelley Daniels. Especially after she bumps into super sexy Gavin Hart, who’s running for his life.
All Gavin wanted was fast money and a chance to start fresh. Now this jewelry thief is the target of professional assassins, ones he witnessed murder a woman in cold blood.
Gavin drags Shelley into the world she was desperate to escape, full of secret agents, assassin plots, and a frantic plan to stop a terrorist group from perfecting a new weapon. Gavin also attempts to steal what’s left of her jaded heart while they hide from the murderers.
The killers strike again, drawing the pair back to the city. When a child’s life hangs in the balance, Shelley and Gavin have a chance to make up for prior sins, but finding redemption means risking everything—including their chance for true love.

Sent to Sayle on a mission to infiltrate a suspected terrorist organization, Nick finds himself attracted to Carlie, an alleged key player of the group. Despite her misgivings, Carlie develops feelings for the handsome stranger, believing he is there to help her. But when Nick finds evidence of her guilt, he’s given orders to do the unthinkable—eliminate the target, one he's fallen hopelessly in love with. Will he follow orders...or become hunted himself?

WISH FOR IT WEDNESDAY ~ 2103 (Act 1) by Drew Avera


From the Author ~


Have you ever been overwhelmed with the amount of political rants on social media? Have you ever noticed the disconnect between “Facebook friends” as they belittle one another because their beliefs don’t line up just right? Well, that’s exactly what inspired me to write my new dystopian novella 2103.

The story begins with 2103 (Act 1), the first book in the series, and it takes place fifty-three years after a second civil war has torn America apart. It’s the year 2103 and the American Union has declared martial law and has essentially incited a war with its own citizens. Times are rough economically and some people will do anything to get ahead.


This book follows several different characters and captures small glimpses in their lives. Each scene is like an act of a play, and the bigger story is told through multiple view points as society disintegrates. Take the journey into a future that I hope we will never see. America has fallen, but that's only the beginning.
2103 (Act 1)
