About this listen
When the bonds of survival are tested, only the strongest threads hold.
The journey to safety grows more perilous as Abby, Blake, and their makeshift family inch closer to their destination. In Fraying Bonds, the second installment of this gripping post-apocalyptic series, the world is darker, more dangerous, and full of unexpected challenges.
The group faces new trials: a dwindling fuel supply, unsettling encounters with desperate strangers, and the looming question of whether the promised refuge will be all they hope for—or a fight they can’t afford to lose. While Blake wrestles with the ghosts of his past and his deepening feelings for Abby, Abby must learn to balance her growing trust in him with her fierce determination to protect her son, Danny.
When a frantic call from Sam warns of an ambush at the homestead, Blake must lead the group into a dangerous confrontation, testing their resolve and the fragile bonds they’ve built. But in this new world, even family comes at a cost—and not everyone may make it to the other side.
Fraying Bonds is a story of resilience, sacrifice, and love in the face of unimaginable odds. Will this chosen family hold together, or will the threads begin to unravel?
Author's Note: I wanted to give you a kind heads-up: both Fragile Threads (Book 1) and Fraying Bonds (Book 2) end on a cliffhanger.
But don’t worry—there’s no need to wait for the next part of the story. The entire series, including the final book, Woven Futures, is available now! You can continue Abby and Blake’s adventure without delay and experience every twist, triumph, and tender moment as they fight for survival and the hope of a new tomorrow.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Annie has always had high hopes for her future. But the reality of her life just isn’t measuring up. She loves her fiancé, Greg–doesn’t she? She’s going to get her degree and open her own business–won’t she? Then, a strange old woman shows up outside her house, and she seems to know a lot about Annie. An awful lot. Annie could tell the old woman to get lost. Yet there’s something about her Annie just can’t shake. And what she learns could change her life forever–but is it the life she envisioned?

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.
