When the world demands heroes, sometimes it’s the villains who rise.

In a crumbling America fractured by the Para Wars, survival isn’t about being noble—it’s about being ruthless. Without Villains is a dark, electrifying urban fantasy that blurs the lines between right and wrong as four unlikely saviors are forced to embrace their darker sides to save their city—and themselves.

Victoria Armstrong thought she could change the world from behind the mayor’s desk. But betrayal and a devastating diagnosis ignite a fury that turns her into a force of rebellion. Dannika Love, a disgraced military pilot, is drawn into Victoria’s orbit, using her cunning and daring to fight for a city that might not be worth saving.

Detective Vance Young has always believed in the system—until it fails him one too many times. Now, he’s taking justice into his own hands, even if it means crossing every line he swore to uphold. And Pearl, a fearless advocate for the paras, is determined to create a safe haven for the persecuted, no matter what—or who—she has to sacrifice.

As the city teeters on the edge of collapse, these four must confront an impossible truth: to defeat the darkness, they may have to become it.

Fans of gritty urban fantasy and dystopian thrillers will devour Without Villains, a gripping tale of power, sacrifice, and the cost of survival. Are you ready to embrace the villain within?
