Perish (Jack Harper Trilogy #2) by L. C. Barlow
Having read the first book in this Trilogy, I was interested to see how the author continued Jack’s story. I must say she stepped it up a notch for this reader.

Regen by Cassie Greutman
Urban Fantasy has become a favorite of mine, so when I saw this book, I could not resist.
