In the year 2765, Earth has reached its breaking point. Overcrowded cities, dying resources, and an unstoppable population crisis drive the United Earth Coalition (UEC) to seek a new home among the stars. Their search leads them to a distant galaxy, where they discover a lush, vibrant world-Verdara. But Verdara is not empty. It is alive, thriving, and home to a civilization strikingly similar to Earth's own-living in an era like Earth's 2025. Peaceful, inventive, and deeply connected to their planet, the Verdarans believe they have centuries ahead to grow. What they never imagined was that their first contact from the stars would be an invasion. Now, the future collides with the past. Aurelia Deyra, a young Verdaran scientist, and Kaelen Dros, a commander sworn to defend his people, must rally their divided world against an unstoppable enemy wielding weapons centuries beyond their comprehension. Yet not all humans support conquest-Dr. Ishani Singh, a conflicted Earth scientist, must choose between loyalty to her world and the truth she cannot ignore. As war ignites between a desperate Earth and a defiant Verdara, the question is no longer who will survive-but who deserves to call this planet home.

In the future, Earth is attacked by an alien race called the Leviathan. Years after the invasion, Iris is still struggling to survive among her people while trying to find a way to win back their planet. However, when her camp is ambushed, her will to fight and attempt to sacrifice herself catches the attention of an otherworldly being. The ruler of the Leviathan race. Remus, enamored with her selflessness, decides to take Iris under his watchful eye and prove to her one thing; Every human is the same. What Remus never expected, was that Iris would be the one to prove him wrong. Can Iris touch the cold heart of a being that wants nothing more than to exterminate the human race? Or will she be the last one left to prove we ever existed? ***This novel will be available in print and ebook July 23,2024*** ~

A war hero in search of safety for everything she loves, and the man who would forsake the universe to have her with him. Humanity has a shaky membership within an intergalactic conglomeration of species and planets. Only a small portion of the population of Earth is capable of the telepathic and intelligence requirements it takes to become a full citizen and the associated higher purpose comes with the cost of oneness. The Reeva share a common ancestor with the humans from a time when the Reeva once visited the blue planet and colonized it, and they have become the ambassadors between humanity and the rest of the universe. Humanities interests are translated and conveyed by a select group of politicians to the Viceroy of Earth, a Reevan dignitary who lives in the elite colony on the moon. Maiara values her independence and resists the aptitude testing that would connect her to advancement beyond mandatory service. But after University and before she can deploy to the Corps, she is selected to attend the Reevan Gala. Viceroy Alreiks, provides representation to the Universal Council for Humanity, as a higher order species. The Gala is an event that is mathematically calculated to pair genetically beneficial matches between humans and the Reeva, though built on a framework of anonymity and consent for the human participants involved. A few hours of pleasure build a connection between them that will alter the course of the universe in years to come. Alareiks knows Maiara is the other half of his soul, but her battles will take her further from Earth and closer to the enemy than either can imagine. Please note, there is plenty of Skoosh. But there is smut in here too. It's woven into the story, but the chapters with it will have *'s on the title, so be forewarned.
