14 Days to Die

by 
A debut psychological thriller that will forever change the way you look at the people you share your life with…

Stay-at-home mom Sarah Johnson has the perfect family—a handsome, hardworking husband and two healthy and beautiful children. At least, that’s what she’s been telling herself for years. After the tragedies in her youth, Sarah deemed living a lie easier than dwelling on the past and facing her everyday failures. To avoid any kind of confrontation at home she doesn’t read her husband’s emails or spy on him like most jealous wives do. She wouldn’t jeopardize her comfortable but dull life for anything.

But Sarah’s world is about to crumble around her when she receives a phone call from a man with a heavy foreign accent telling her that her perfect husband has put a price on her head. She is offered two weeks to come up with a counteroffer or die. Why would her model husband Mike want her dead? Hasn’t she been the perfect wife? Or has her karma finally caught up with her—making her pay for her former transgressions? The final countdown begins and now Sarah has to race against time to find out what went wrong in her marriage and find a way out of this nightmare.

So the game of life or death begins. Secrets are unveiled. Emotions are unleashed. Actions are taken.

Will there be a winner in this dangerous game when no one can escape their twist of fate?

PRAISE for 14 DAYS TO DIE




"High praises for 14 Days To Die! This book lives up to everything a physiological thriller lover looks for in a book. When you think you have the ending figured out, you'll be wrong!!! A must read!!!" 
  Violet (5 stars Goodreads Review)

"This was my first book by A.B. Whelan and it was the Bomb!! Great book with So much twist and turns that I dare you to try and guess the ending!!" Annie (5 stars Goodreads Review) 

"Whoa...I was not prepared for this. This is a gripping thriller full of twists and turns." 
Michelle Only Wants to Read (5 stars Netgalley Review) 

"Well orchestrated triller with many twists and turns that keeps you guessing until the very last page." 
Bogi (5 stars Goodreads Review) 

"I loved this book and could not stop reading except for long enough to run in and tell my adult son what happened next. It was awesome and a book I truly believe we will be seeing made into a movie. I have never read a book quite like it but hope Ms. Whelan has more psychological thrillers up her sleeves. I think she has found her niche with this book. I recommend this book highly. I think Gillian Flynn may have to move over to make room for Ms. Whelan." 
Vicky (5 stars Goodreads Review)

"Not since Gone Girl or Girl on the Train have I been so hooked on a book. I loved it from start to finish!" 
BeeGee (5 star Goodreads Review) 

"Well, I didn't see that coming! . . . This book NEEDS to be made into a movie! It's just begging to be on the big screen! It will knock the socks off of Gone Girl if it's done right!" 
Amy (5 stars Netgalley Review) 

"I absolutely loved and highly recommend this book! . . . This is one of those books where you want to race to the end because you just have to know how it ends!" 
Melissa (5 stars Netgalley Review)

ADVANCED REVIEWS ON GOODREADS

This was my first book by A.B. Whelan and it was the Bomb!!
An emotional journey in the life of the perfect family that ends up being a little less than perfect!!

Great book with So much twist and turns that i dare you to try and Guess the ending!! Good Luck!!
What a brilliant book. I am annoyed that it took me so long to read this book but with life being so busy right now it couldnt be helped.

This booked had my gripped from page 1. You meet Sarah, a mother of 2, a doting wife that does everything for her family. You would think she has the perfect family and life, a nice house, cars and nice things. Then things turn when sarah gets a phone call from a man with a foreign accent claiming that her husband as put a hit on her to be killed. The man give

I received a copy of this book from the author for my honest review.
I started this book and immediately was drawn in. I love true crime books and that is exactly what this book reminded me of. Had I read it blindly I would have assumed it was a true crime book.
Mike and Sarah Johnson are the all American couple with 2 kids, 2 mortgages (one a rental), a dog, and chickens. Mike is an AF man so they have spent a good deal of time moving around. Sarah is your typical stay at home Mom who believes

This is the first book I have read by this author, and I have to say, she is truly a gifted storyteller! This thriller has so many underlying storylines that it keeps you captivated and wanting to know more. You definitely do not know where the story will go, and I enjoy that it was not predictable in the least. Not since Gone Girl or Girl on the Train have I been so hooked on a book. I loved it from start to finish!

Well orchestrated triller with many twists and turns that keeps you guessing until the very last page. It surprised me. I'm an avid CSI and crime drama junkie, but I could not see if coming. A. B. Whelan pulls off the perfect crime (book) - while painting a painfully accurate picture of a decade old marriage, raising kids, personal demons and desire. The book has a bit of Marquez zing to it in a style of the Chronicle of a Death Fortold.

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for my honest review. I absolutely loved and highly recommend this book! Imagine being a happy enough, stay at home mom going about your daily routine when you receive a phone call and find out that not only is your husband cheating on you but he has also hired a hitman to kill you. This is the basic storyline with multiple layers added on. This is one of those books where you want to race to the end because you just have to know how it e ...more

*I won't go into too much detail, as I do not like to give parts of the story away.*

I would like to start of saying that this book is very different from all the other books I've read by A.B. Whelan. Having said that, it is just as amazing as all the rest!!

In this book we follow one woman as she tries to figure out a huge dilemma. We will watch her struggle with many decisions as she sees her life crumble in ways she never thought poss

Sarah Johnson is a stay-at-home mother of two healthy, beautiful kids. Her husband is good-looking and hard-working. But he wants her dead. At least that's what the hitman on the phone told her, and if she wants to live she has to come up with a counteroffer.

She has 14 days to decide.

I really felt bad for Sarah - what a shock it would be to be put into that situation. Overall the book flowed well, there were lots of twists and turns that'll keep you guessing until the end. Once you start readin

“Fields of Elysium is one of those books that completely takes you by surprise with how involved and wrapped up in it you become. I never expected to love this as much as I did nor to become so engrossed in the story that I would have to sit down and read it all in one sitting simply because I had to know how it all played out.”

TEASER --> City of Shame Part Two




TEASER-> City of Shame Part Two 

I stood in chains in the middle of a dim room, my arms stretched wide. Tight shackles wrapped around my wrists like the grasp of a strong man. From the slightest movement they chafed my skin. Pulsating pain radiated from wounds where the cold metal touched my flesh. For hours I managed to stay strong, emotionally and physically, fending off beatings and humiliation, but the last hour brought with it unbearable pain, and it was breaking me. 
Soon after the Emperor’s lapdogs brought me here, the prison guards tied my hands up and dumped a bucket of salt over me, laughing as I winced when the crystals got into my wounds. Searing pain burned every inch of my body, but I remained strong, showing no emotion. I was not going to give that sadist the satisfaction of seeing me cry. 
But as the endless minutes rolled on, my knees weakened. I felt the power slowly seeping away from my joints and muscles. To get that one last push, I summoned Molly’s face to my mind. I had to stay alive for her. I couldn’t give up. Although staying alive might not work out. Even I knew that all captured Motleys faced death in Terraka City. No exceptions. 
So much for this foolish rescue mission. 

On the picture: Lincoln in The 100. I love the show and this scene inspired chapter two in City of Shame Part Two.

City of Shame Part Two Release

June 29, 2015

PART ONE

When life gives you no choice other than to be strong or perish, you soon learn who you really are...

Since discovering the wormhole that connects Earth to Arkana, Molly Bennett faced joy and pain, love and death, excitement and danger unlike anybody else she knew. But her biggest challenge is about to begin. She is inside the force field, lost in Terraka City with people she doesn’t know. Life is more dangerous under Taronno’s tyranny than she and her Arkanian friends anticipated. Time is running out and she must figure out whom to trust, how to stay safe, and how to get back to her beloved Victor.

Victor Sorren’s life changed the moment Molly showed up on Arkana. His love for her came easy, but admitting it to her took every bit of courage he had. Obstacles always threatened to tear them apart, but together they overcame all of them. Now, Molly is gone and Victor doesn’t know how to deal with his worry and loneliness. Going after her would mean certain death, but this is the price he is willing to pay to see her again.

The race against time has begun. Will Molly be able to find her way back to Victor before it’s too late?

PART TWO

We do anything for the ones we love…

Since Molly Elizabeth Bennett has been living in exile bereft of all memory of her past, she only knows the world to be an unfair and brutal place. Inside Terraka City, where control, violence and humiliation keep people in abject fear, her faith in humanity has faltered. But just like the forest after a fire, she also rises from the ashes.

Meanwhile, Victor Sorren embarks on a hazardous rescue mission with Little Pete and Annabella to find his beloved Molly, unaware that she doesn’t remember him. For a mixed-blood Motley Terraka City, where only purebred species have the right to live, is a dangerous place to be. Yet the three friends follow Molly’s footsteps even though they jeopardize their own lives with each step.

Four friends. Scattered in four different places. All of their lives in peril. The Imperial Guards hunting them. The Emperor wanting them dead. They just want to find each other and leave this city of shame. But with the stakes so high, wishful thinking may not be enough to save them.

Will they all be strong enough to survive this deadly mission into Terraka territory?

A.B. Whelan's third book of the romantic fantasy Fields of Elysium series is an other highly imaginative tale, a fast paced story about the power of love and human nature.
