Burn: Book 3 of the Apex Society Trilogy

Sgt. Troy Wilder thought he’d finally found peace—until Apex came for blood.

Troy has lived his entire life on the front lines—first as a soldier, then as the Wilder brother who keeps everyone else standing. Order, discipline, and control have always been his armor. But the moment a terrified young woman stumbles into his world, everything he knows about protection—and failure—shatters.

Fleeing a life of opulent brutality, Gia bolts toward an unknown she prays is safer than the hell she escaped. Shaking, desperate, and carrying a newborn that isn’t hers, she steadies the moment Troy finds her. His intensity disarms her, and his promise to protect her feels like the first truth she’s ever been given.

But Troy’s instincts are a razor’s edge, and one catastrophic miscalculation is all it takes to hand Gia back to the monster he swore to shield her from. Now, with his worst nightmare unfolding, he’s forced to do the one thing he’s always feared: letting go. The fallout detonates, hurling them toward a finale that reaches the highest echelons of political power.

Because Apex doesn’t require justice—it demands annihilation.
