Part of: Hearts Under Fire (10 books)
The world ended not with a bang—but with silence, fire, and the slow unraveling of everything civilization once promised.
Elara thought she’d lost everything. But when a forgotten bunker deep in the mountains offers her a second chance, she walks through its gates not as a refugee—but as a force of change.
Inside Stronghold 7 are three men bound by rules, secrets, and the shared burden of survival.
Jax, the architect who built the walls high enough to keep people out—and his heart locked tighter.
Wren, the tactician who never sleeps without a backup plan, even when the world sleeps no more.
Brennan, the scout with quiet eyes and a silence sharp enough to cut through lies.
They didn’t expect her. She wasn’t part of their protocol. She came without weapons, without allies, without permission—but with the one thing they’ve forgotten how to fight for: hope.
But this stronghold isn’t just hiding survivors. It’s hiding truths buried deep in steel, blood, and code—secrets tied to Elara’s past, and to the war that never truly ended. As danger presses in from the frozen wastelands and ghosts from their broken world stir, Elara must decide if she’s just here to survive…
Or to lead.
In this gripping post-apocalyptic reverse harem romance, loyalty is tested, trust is earned, and love is as dangerous as the war they escaped. Perfect for fans of found family, slow-burn tension, and fierce heroines who take back their power one heartbeat at a time.
