  Valentine’s Day has always been associated with love and romance. I don’t consider myself a romance writer, but every novel has a budding relationship. I write adult and young adult dystopian, suspense, and crime fiction, and there is no stronger catalyst to encourage characters to take risks than to protect the ones they love. So, if you’re looking for a Valentine’s read that has lots of adventure, suspense and just enough romance, check out one of my novels. For teens or anyone who loves dystopian fiction, check out The Beartooth Chronicles (series complete with five novels) or Deadly Exodus. Happy Valentine’s Day.

During the death hunt, my heart pounded for Caleb and his friends, and when danger rained down on the community, I simply couldn’t stop reading. Ms. McMahill has delivered a gripping, well‑written story.” If you’ve read Win...
