Tempest

When the storm ends, there's a calm in the air that shows you everything is going to be all right. But nothing may ever be right again. Delani Delvecchio has weathered storm after storm throughout her life, but this one may have the potential to break her. After what is supposed to be an anniversary celebration with her friends and boyfriend, Delani gets pulled into her own personal hell. Taken. Beaten. Tormented. Delani fights and makes it out, only to realize she's not safe at home-she's no longer safe in New York at all. With an untraceable phone, clothes that aren't her own, and enough money to get her by, she gets on a train and heads to the last place she felt she would be looked for. What she didn't expect to find when she got there was him. Cocky. Charismatic. Safe. Brody Russell, small town cop, quickly becomes the calm during Delani's storm. His presence makes her forget and his southern charm works its way into her heart. Brody promises to protect her, to be right by her side when the storm ends. But what if this storm is only the beginning?

The storm rages, casting light in the shadows, forcing you to face the aftermath. Running away is futile. Broken. Traumatized. Consumed. Delani Delvecchio has been through more heartbreak in her life than most can handle. She's strong-stronger than she thought herself capable-but her victory comes with consequences. She's slipping-slipping from reality and fearing everything around her. Nightmares are controlling her mind, demons from the past are playing tricks, and her foundation is cracking. Loyal. Determined. Faithful. Brody Russell saved Delani from hell, only to be faced with a hell of his own. Being a small-town cop, he thought he'd been prepared for the repercussions of helping Delani, but now, he's facing a trial that's determined to break him, and all he wants is his love for Delani to survive the fallout. Emotions run high, boundaries are pushed, and the odds stacked against them become a race against time. The storm might be over, but the devastation has taken its toll. Surviving is the only option, but will it be enough?

Jackson Meyer has thrown himself into his role as an agent for Tempest, the shadowy division of the CIA that handles all time-travel-related threats. Despite his heartbreak at losing the love of his life, Jackson has proved himself to be an excellent agent. However, after an accidental run in with Holly-the girl he altered history to save-Jackson is once again reminded of what he's lost. And when Eyewall, an opposing division of the CIA, emerges, Jackson and his fellow agents not only find themselves under attack, but Jackson begins to discover that the world around him has changed and someone knows about his erased relationship with Holly, putting both their lives at risk all over again.

The battle between the Tempest Division and Eyewall comes to a shocking conclusion in Timestorm- the final installment of Julie Cross's Tempest trilogy, where the need for survival stretches the boundaries of history, both past and future, and the world Jackson Meyer once knew is a place forever marked by the detrimental effects of time travel. As Jackson recovers from his brush with death, he's surrounded not only by the people he loves most-his dad, Courtney, and Holly-he's also among a few of the original time travelers. As he learns more about their lives and how this world began, it becomes apparent that they need to put a stop to Thomas and Dr. Ludwig's experimenting at Eyewall Headquarters. What starts out as an escape plan becomes a war between time and humanity, between free will and peace. It's the battle Jackson was born to fight and he's not about to back down. Not for anything. Not for anyone.
