THE ORDER: Obsession: A steamy dystopian romance with action

Lieutenant Daniel Hoyer is a pillar of The Order, the last true military force in a broken world. He’s a man of discipline, tactical genius, and deep-seated trust issues—until he falls hard for a new recruit. Now, he’s in a tailspin he can’t control.

Despite the professional risk, he wants her close. The closer, the better—even if her mysterious origins threaten his mission and the safety of the fort. But be warned: the Lieutenant has a dangerously addictive effect on women. He might just trap you, too.

As Hoyer battles his own paranoia and a crippling fear of rejection, he’s forced to contend with a surge of jealousy and a lurking shadow government. They’re coming to reclaim their rogue “assets,” and they don’t care who gets caught in the crossfire. In the lawless ruins of the Outside, peace is a fragile illusion, especially as the local Sanctum unleashes its “freaks” to infiltrate the syndicates and raider gangs that prowl the borders.

Set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland where The Order fights to maintain a sliver of command, this is a character-driven dystopian romance. Hoyer was sent to the Ridgelands to secure old-world weapons of mass destruction—but the one thing he can’t command is the girl who might finally break him.
