FINALLY! The Outbreak Protocol cover is here


COVER REVEAL: Outbreak Protocol + Exciting Updates!

Hey everyone!

I'm so excited to share something I've been waiting to show you for ages...

THE COVER FOR OUTBREAK PROTOCOL IS HERE!

I'm absolutely in love with how it turned out. It captures exactly what I hoped it would about Felix and Erik's story.

Coming September 5th, 2025

Here's what you're getting with Outbreak Protocol:

One doctor saves lives from behind a screen. The other saves them with his hands. When the world ends, they are each other's only hope.

Dr. Felix Müller trusts his gut, and his gut tells him the horrifying new illness tearing through his Hamburg ER is no ordinary flu. When his superiors ignore the mounting body count, Felix risks his career on a single, desperate email to a reclusive, brilliant epidemiologist who is his last resort.

Dr. Erik Lindqvist trusts in data, not gut feelings. For the reclusive scientist, emotions are a liability. He arrives in Hamburg expecting to correct a flawed analysis, but instead finds a city on the brink of collapse and a frontline doctor whose fiery compassion threatens to shatter the walls around his heart.

Forced into an uneasy alliance, the two men are the city's first and last line of defense. But as the virus consumes Hamburg and military law is declared, their professional friction ignites into a desperate and dangerous intimacy. In the quiet moments between disasters, they find a connection that could be their only comfort—or a fatal distraction.

As the death toll climbs and the city is sealed from the world, they are in a desperate race for a cure. But the greatest threat might not be the evolving pathogen—it could be the terrifying choices they are forced to make about how much they are willing to sacrifice... and who.

This is a gut-wrenching, epic MM romance set against the backdrop of an apocalyptic medical thriller. Think opposites attract, hurt/comfort, and found family rising from the ashes. Fair warning: this one's going to wreck you in the best way.
