Crescent

In this heated, action-packed debut, an eighteen-year-old soldier discovers her inner strength with the help of her combat instructors. As she navigates this dangerous, post-apocalyptic world, she realizes she has been lied to her entire life.

Crescent Harlowe has only one thing left to live for, and it's not herself.

Six years ago, the War took her parents, her home, and her life, leaving Crescent alone to protect her critically-ill brother, Soleil. Now, newly eighteen, she is forced to begin deadly training trials where getting eliminated means certain death. For a girl used to surviving in the shadows, her only options have become fight or die.

If Crescent wants to live, she needs to get stronger, and fast. But that means relying on her incredibly dangerous - and frustratingly intoxicating - instructors. Agent Alexander Lennox is the deadliest man in Area 2, and he seems to know more about Crescent than she does herself. Major Chancellor Paris is military royalty with countless secrets hiding behind his perfect smile. The worst part - getting too close to either of them could be more fatal than death itself.

War has already destroyed everything Crescent loves. Will it destroy her too?

Or will she tear down this web of love, lies, and danger, and make it out alive?
