An Astra Militarum Novel

A shattered elite unit fights on in the aftermath of total devastation. Cut off, outnumbered, and with little chance of rescue, these hardened soldiers refuse to surrender—no matter the cost.

Why You’ll Want to Read It

This is a bleak, character-driven story where hope is scarce but determination never fades. Follow a group of veteran troops as they endure impossible conditions, standing their ground long after most would have fallen. The collection brings together multiple connected stories and a longer narrative, building a powerful portrait of survival against overwhelming odds.

The Story

Once among the most highly trained soldiers in the Imperium, these warriors are now the last survivors of a destroyed stronghold. Stranded on a war-torn world fractured by internal conflict and corrupted forces, they’ve become the backbone of a failing defense effort.

Operating behind enemy lines, the unit relies on precision strikes, covert tactics, and sheer discipline to slow the advance of their enemies. Their leader, a battle-hardened sergeant, inspires those around him—but carries the weight of past losses and the grim reality that victory may be impossible.

As internal betrayal threatens what little stability remains and a new, ruthless foe emerges, the defenders are pushed to their limits. With no reinforcements and no escape, they must decide how long they can continue to fight—and what they’re willing to sacrifice to do so.

Written by William Crowe.

Wonderful
Format: Paperback
This was a hard book to put down. The characters of Svanna & Kyle are so well developed, as our their families and friends, who just enhance the whole story. When Savanna is left on the bridge, my heart broke, was amended later, and fulfilled by the end of the book.

Dream…
Format: Kindle
I loved this book right from the get-go. The snappy repartee between Savanna and Kyle made me laugh and shiver with delight all through this book. Toss in all the great characters in Dreamers Bay and I was sold! Wonderful story, great plot twists, fantastic highs and lows. A true smorgasbord of emotions. Thanks Melissa…

Loved this book so much
Format: Kindle
First, it’s a cute story with a great themes of: younger older woman, daughter‘s friend, disgruntled with family. I have to admit every time the main character was talking to her father I was so incredibly annoyed. It brought up all the conversations I’ve ever had with misogynist in my life. Definitely well written. On happier notes; the love story, the meddling neighbor/landlord, cute child, and kittens! Really, what story isn’t made better by kittens? Seriously this is an exceptionally well written story with fantastic characters, plot lines, and a great ending.

A Thoughtful and Compelling Romance with Depth and Maturity
Format: Kindle
Miranda MacLeod and TB Markinson deliver a compelling and emotionally charged romance in The Anatomy of Forever, a novel that successfully balances personal transformation, ethical dilemmas, and the weight of professional responsibility. Dr. Rowan Colchester, newly embracing her true self after a difficult divorce, is not prepared for the whirlwind that follows a passionate encounter with a younger woman. When fate reunites her with Dr. Simone Doucette, an idealistic doctor seeking solace in a Cape Cod ER, their undeniable connection becomes fraught with complications. The revelation of their unexpected personal link adds a layer of tension that challenges not only their burgeoning relationship but also their careers and reputations. As the stakes rise, Rowan and Simone must navigate professional ethics, small-town scrutiny, and their own vulnerabilities to fight for a second chance at love. While the “sleeping with your daughter’s best friend” trope initially presents a hurdle, the novel compensates with a well-developed plot that offers depth beyond the romance. MacLeod and Markinson craft a narrative rich with stakes that extend beyond the personal, grounding the story in a high-stakes professional and community-driven context. The characters are well-drawn and compelling, both Rowan and Simone stand out as confident, determined, and capable women who refuse to be defined by societal expectations or past mistakes. Even secondary characters, such as Erica, evolve in ways that add nuance to the story. A refreshing aspect of The Anatomy of Forever is its portrayal of strong, independent women who communicate effectively and fight for what they want. Rather than relying on contrived misunderstandings or overplayed angst, the novel explores mature relationship dynamics, making the romance feel authentic and rewarding. Overall, this is a well-executed sapphic romance that offers substance, well-rounded characters, and a satisfying blend of personal and professional stakes. MacLeod and Markinson have crafted a narrative that is engaging, thought-provoking, and ultimately, deeply satisfying.

Lives up to all the hype
Format: Kindle
Stars: 5 Stars Format: Audiobook Narrator: Lori Prince Series: Stand Alone Steam Level: Steamy I read this for the 2026 A to Z Book Challenge for A. This was the first book I added to the A to Z Challenge because I was so excited to read it and it absolutely lived up to all the hype. Quick Thoughts: - There is something about the “we had a one night stand but didn’t know we both have the same person who is important to us in our personal lives” set up that I just have so much fun reading - The trauma that Simone went through as a kid then again as an adult was absolutely heartbreaking - Two things I really liked about this book is that it didn’t end when they got together and that the Big Third Act Drama wasn’t about them being together - This is exactly how cats get adopted - No third act break up! - I hope Lance ends up in prison - The character growth almost everyone in the book goes through in this was wonderful to watch - I had the biggest grin with this ending. It was sweet and adorable and perfect and just made me so happy - It is ALWAYS a joy to listen to Lori Prince. She did a fantastic job, as usual, and I sincerely hope to listen to a thousand more books of hers Overall I loved this book. T.B. Markinson and Miranda MacLeod, by themselves, are an auto buy but when they write together I actively stalk their new releases to preorder it the second I can. I can honestly recommend any book of theirs without having read it.
