The Capture, the second book in The Prey series, is a suspenseful story of courage, survival, and doing what’s right, no matter how hard. The Maze Runner meets The Hunger Games in this heart-pounding trilogy where orphaned teens, soon to be hunted for sport, must fight for a better life. Riveting action, intense romance, and gripping emotion make this fast-paced adventure a standout.

Fifteen escaped and found their way to freedom, but Book, Hope, and Cat can’t settle into their new life knowing the rest of the Less Thans and Sisters are still imprisoned. Now the teens must retrace their steps to save the others and thwart the Republic’s dark plans to destroy those deemed different, even as relationships are tested and the path back is filled with danger.

With new enemies lurking, the group must put their fate in the hands of unexpected allies, and must ask themselves how far they’re willing to go to free their friends.

Rebellion Against the Government: Fifteen teens escaped a brutal regime, but they can’t abandon the friends they left behind. Now, they’re heading back into the heart of the Republic on a mission that might be their last.
Found Family: Book, Hope, and Cat lead a fractured group of survivors where loyalty is everything. But with new enemies and unexpected allies at every turn, trusting the wrong person could be fatal.
Slow Burn Romance: The dangerous journey forces Book and Hope closer than ever, but with Cat in the picture, unspoken feelings and stolen glances create a tension as sharp as any blade.
Teens Hunted for Sport: The Republic doesn’t just imprison its orphans—it hunts them. This fast-paced adventure puts the teens in the crosshairs where every step could be their last.
