After Sundown

Even though you know how it is going to end, plots are good and characters are solid.

The characters are well developed and easy to identify with. Loved it!

Connected on more than one level. Loved the book. Going back for reread….

Awesome book…very well written and thought through. I swear, this book has made me think more than any other book I’ve ever read. I am seriously impressed with how much I more knowledge I have now in case of a similar situation. The love between Ben and Sela was so well written, I could FEEL their love. Well done! I will recommend this book to all my friends!!!

A throughly enjoyable novel along the lines of a modern day Alas Babylon.

Excellent read, couldn’t put it down!

Enjoyed this book. Thought provoking about what we take for granted.

Could not put it down

AFTER SUNDOWN by Linda Howard and Linda Jones hooked me from the first page, but I'm not certain it was the best choice during a pandemic (since it's about a catastrophic solar storm that wipes out the power grid worldwide.) Even so, I couldn't put it down! AFTER SUNDOWN is set in the small town of Wears Valley, Tennessee. Sela Gordon runs a small convenience store. She is reserved and prefers her solitude, but there is one man who could pull her out of her shell—handsome, ex-military, loner Ben Jernigan, who lives in the wilds of Cove Mountain. Sela was attracted to Ben from the first time he came into her store two years before, but her shyness keeps her from approaching him. Then one day he warns her that a solar storm is headed for earth, and she should prepare for the worst.  The worst happens, and Sela must step up to take care of her aunt and cousin and become the leader of Wears Valley, the last thing she wants to do. If Sela doesn't step up, people will starve and freeze to death come winter. But when violence erupts, she realizes she needs help. Sela turns to Ben, and when he refuses, she offer her body in return for his expertise on keeping Wears Valley safe. This story was so realistic that I was ready to stock up on supplies and take our solar off the grid. Loved it from beginning to end with a satisfying happily ever after. Recommended Read

I have loved Linda Howard for many years, but some books are better than others. This one is her best in quite a few years. I’m glad this author combination is working. I look forward to more. If you like Cover of Night, you’ll love this one.
