Deal With the Devil

A Mercenary Librarians Novel

Nina is an information broker with a mission – she and her team of mercenary librarians use their knowledge to save the hopeless in a crumbling America.

Knox is the bitter, battle-weary captain of the Silver Devils. His squad of supersoldiers went AWOL to avoid slaughtering innocents, and now he’s fighting to survive.

They’re on a deadly collision course, and the passion that flares between them only makes it more dangerous. They could burn down the world, destroying each other in the process…

Or they could do the impossible: join forces and save the damn world.

Welcome to the page for Gideon’s Riders, the new series set in the sectors. This series takes place about six months after the end of the Beyond series. That said, it’s a new setting with mostly new characters, and you don’t have to have read the Beyond books to jump in. We’ll do our best to keep everything that might reveal too much behind spoiler tags, but if you haven’t read any of the Beyond books yet–browse with care!

Speaking of spoilers…

This is a series about Gideon’s Riders–the holy warrior bikers who police the sectors, protect the weak, crush the bullies and kill so others don’t have to. Each book is named after the Rider currently getting his HEA. That means upcoming titles could reveal more than you want to know! Browse on at your own peril!

The Series

No! We have plenty of Riders in desperate need of a little tender loving care and a happily ever after. But we don’t like to put up details until we know for sure which order the books should be in and what’s coming next. So for now, we’re sticking at six.

Can we have some teasers now?!

Sure! Here is the first one, updated 8/4/2016. Below you will find our inspiration for the heroes & heroines of the first five books. Some are familiar, some are new, all are people with stories we’re excited to tell!

Is this set after the Beyond series?

Yes! Books #1 – #9 of the Beyond Series take place before the first book in Gideon’s Riders. However, that doesn’t mean there may not be stories and novellas about the Beyond characters that we write once the main series is over! Once that happens, we will make sure there’s one master list for all the stories that take place in the sectors and what order they’re in.

Where is it set?

In Sector One, the peace-loving home of Mad’s cousin Gideon.

What’s it about?

In Beyond Ruin, Gideon tells Mad about some changes he wants to make in Sector One once the war is over. This is the story of these changes–and their aftermath. (For those of you who always wished you got to see the early days of the O’Kanes, this will be a little like that.)

Who’s it about?

That guy, and that girl, and that other guy, and that couple you’ve been asking about, plus a bunch of people you haven’t met yet. In other words: a good mix of familiar faces and new people to fall in love with. You can check behind the spoiler tags on the first three books for some hints.

Will we be seeing the O’Kanes??? (Updated 9/26/2017)

Sometimes! Some people probably more often than others, because after all–Mad is family. And there will still be meetings between the leaders and action that takes the Riders around to visit familiar places and people. But this will also be a new series, with a new cast of characters to focus on.

Ashwin features: Ace, Cruz & Rachel
Deacon features: Bren, Six, and a sector leader meeting with Dallas, Jyoti and Ford represented!

Nooooo, I don’t want to say goodbye to the O’Kanes!!!

Us either! But we don’t want to include them in books where they don’t fit–especially if that means dragging them into danger when they should be enjoying a little bit of downtime after everything we’re putting them through during these final three books. But never fret–there will always be opportunities for Beyond HEA stories and maybe the occasional novella.

The Beyond Series

The Beyond series are stories set in a post-apocalyptic world where the rich and powerful have claimed ownership of the country’s only self-sustaining city. Those who live within Eden’s walls must abide by a strict moral code or risk exile to the brutal, lawless sectors.

Gangs and petty dictators rule the slums, but not all kings are created equal. Dallas O’Kane and his brotherhood of bootleggers are the only authority in Sector Four. Cross them at your peril. But pledge your loyalty, and you might be invited into their world of passion and power, sex and sin. Just remember: if you’re an O’Kane, you’re an O’Kane for life.
