Stirrings — Autumn M. Birt

Continue the military dystopian series Friends of my Enemy with Stirrings, Part 3 of Stories from the War.

A friendship falters on denied love. But love is not so easy to lose. Spurned by Arinna when she chooses to save herself and her husband from the devastating civil war raging in the US, Byran is haunted by her decision and loss.



But when a cell of the shadowy organization unleashing havoc in the US is discovered in Europe in 2056, Arinna and Byran must overcome past hurts to confront the chaos rising around them. World events take an unparalleled turn and fears grow for what the FLF have planned for Europe, especially considering what lengths they used to rip apart the US. War is once again on Europe's door, and two of those poised to help save the continent wrestle between friendship and inappropriate past affections. Will one doom the other?



Set in Europe, this series unfolds through the intersecting lives of a small handful of people and explores adult themes, both dark and hopeful, of friendship, romance, and family, including how these influences direct everyday choices, which ripple outwards to impact governments on the verge of war. Because not all influence is good, and not all decisions can be made in time.
