The world suffered a drastic change when the power went out on the heels of a viral outbreak twelve years ago. The population was decimated and lives changed in the blink of an eye. Tamar went from a bounty hunter in training to a woman who uses her skill to survive. When she hears of a bounty that may finally give her and her team security, she knows there’s no way she’s letting this bounty … slip through her fingers—not even when another team gets in her way.
Kage and his brothers have their eye on one thing—revenge for their brother, tortured and murdered. When the man responsible offers up a bounty, Kage knows this is their chance, even if he’s forced to work with another team. Falling for a woman like Tamar wasn’t in his plans, but there’s no turning away from her now.
Tamar and Kage must fight together for a future. The choice of being selfish or the ability to see the bigger picture for the sake of the world and its existence might blur lines of friendship and trust. Will they be able to make the right choice, for the world and each other? Or will revenge take a turn for the worse?

I loved this story! Kage was written between Esther E. Schmidt and Cali MacKay and they made an awesome team 🙂 and I can’t wait for more from them and this new series 🙂
This is different from what I’ve read before by our author, Esther E. Schmidt but it hit the mark on every turn for a good, steamy, filled with action, passion, intense connection not only with our main characters but also we get some connection from our side characters; there’s also sad moments, more action, sexy times and finally a happily ever after <3
This was definitely accomplished by these two amazing authors', Esther E. Schmidt and Cali MacKay 🙂 <3
Tamar and Kage's chemistry was off the charts sexy, dominant, insane sparks and it was HOT as hell 😉 These two are strong, both have been through something hard but are both survivors. I also liked the secondary characters, like Dessa (Tamar's little sister) and Lars (Kage's brother) also have crazy chemistry and I hope we get their story too 🙂
Everyone from the main couple had inner battles to fight even physical battles within their inner circle...
There are several scenes with one particular slime-ball of a side character that wanted me to be able to jump in the page and throttle him, especially after what he did to another side character that I liked, who was also like a second father to Tamar... it hit Tamar hard and I cried for her but she held onto her man, her sister and her newfound friends in Kage's MC brothers and kept going forward to achieve their goal, which was to restore the power and... well, can't spoil everything for you guys, so go check this story out when it comes out on April 24, you won't regret it 😉
Kage & Tamra
This is a fabulous start to this new series. Cali and Esther have hit this apocalypse romance of survival out of this world.
I love the rough and tough of Kage and throw in the a sassy heroine and I am hooked. The instant chemistry that they shared was electric. To watch them working together to survive and save the world was outstanding !

I’m a huge lover of Esther’s writing but Cali is a new author to me and this is a brilliant collaboration.
MC is my favourite genre, add in this brilliant twist and I am in love. You still have the hot, sexy as sin bikers that make you swoon and heart race, mix this with a apocalyptic type world and this book is pure genius!!
In a world where everyone who is left is fighting for survival, trust is hard to come by but the instant trust and connection between Tamar and Kage was intriguing and oh so hot. Even though it was an insta love it felt so natural between them.
I’m honestly very excited for this series and can’t wait to see where it goes.
Now this isn’t usually my go to genre but with it being by Esther and Cali I had to check it out and boy am I glad that I did. This wasn’t so far fetched, it was completely believable and could totally happen in the future so it helped me enjoy it more. The story line was interesting and had me intrigued and hooked from the beginning. The men were sexy, alpha men and Tamar was independent, feisty, kick butt and take names later kind of lady with a kind heart for those she cares for as well.
Tamar and Kage have an instant chemistry and in times such as these things move faster than they would normally. When you find something good in life, you grab it with both hands and don’t let go and that is exactly what Kage plans to do but it may take a bit to convince Tamar.
This is definitely a book to give a chance to even if you don’t normally read anything in the apocalypse genre. I really think that you will enjoy this book as well. And hello…MC guys. I can’t wait for the next in the Peril’s End MC series!!
I follow Esther Schmidt’s work and love her writing style. I was anxious to she how her style translated as co-author. May I state for the record that I Loved this collaboration. Ms. Schmidt and Ms. Mackay have done an amazing job of writing a MC storyline that takes place after the word as we know it has all but collapsed.
The main two characters, Kage and Tamar, are tough as nails bounty hunters, who set out to better their situation in this new way of life. Both are strong willed leaders in their own right but together they make one hell of a Kicka$$ and Take Names team. A team set out to bring a hugely sought after bounty in to justice. But plans often change as Kage and Tamar soon find out. Is the bounty really a bad guy? What’s the truth and who do should they trust?
The plot will take a few twists and turns but the journey these two authors take you on is exciting and action packed with some sexy romance along the way. I don’t do spoilers so I won’t go into the details, but trust me when I say this is a great read and one I highly recommend grabbing up ASAP (you won’t be sorry). Kudos to the authors and I offer them a hardy 2 Thumbs Up for an amazing book. A book that I hope is the first of many to come from this author duo!
Fantastic new series by combined authors Esther E Schmidt and Cali MacKay, its got a fast pace with some action and suspense. Hot main character and a feisty capable female lead. The story is refreshingly new and different from anything either have written before, at the same time both experienced authors bring their knowledge and said experience to the table so what some may worry about it not being as good as other books by these authors is beyond great. It is unique in that I haven’t read anything like this before, when people hear virus wiping out hundreds these days you automatically tend to think along zombie lines but this isn’t that. I loved the mix of drama, suspense, action and of course the instant spark of interest from the main characters. The build up to the climatic end had me reading faster, there were also a few shocks added into the mix at least one of these had me frowning and screaming at the page. I really hope that this isn’t the last story from this MC series, because I definitely need more.
This book was non stop action, banter, laughter, grunt and growling men. Laughed at lot with these characters, they’re loyal, protective and most of all sexy. It’s my first time reading anything by author Cali Mackay, but not author Esther E Schmidt, but both make a great team, well done ladies
What a awesome start to a new series. Cali and Esther did amazing job creating a world that could happen to us in the future. Love the chemistry between Kage and Tamar. Cant wait to met the rest of the men and woman of the Peril’s End MC.
You know that feeling when you pick up a new series and you immediately know its going to be epic? Yeah, that would be this book, this series. I loved the world that this book took place in, it was a common trope, just written uniquely. The characters are amazing, the passion real and bold, and the action was edge of your seat. I loved the mixing of MC, end of the world, and the insta-love. The book was so amazing, I could not ask for more… Okay, I can, more in this series please!!
