Sixteen-year-old Jayda Willow doesn't live on Earth. She's an orphan, living with a foster family on a distant planet named Endaria populated and ruled by giants that humans escaped to after Earth's resources were depleted. In a desperate attempt to join her mother in the detention center, Jayda burns down her foster family's house, and is brought before the overseeing giant of their human township, Marcelo Aricci, who's only a little bit older than Jayda herself. Marcelo decides to take Jayda as his own instead of sending her to the detention center-a fact that she initially resents, until she uncovers the truth behind his motives. Marcelo is part of a progressive movement that advocates for a more integrated community between humans and giants. Soon Jayda is drawn into his world and assisting him on secret missions to the capital in an attempt to start a revolution-and find her mom again, who may have been taken to the seventh moon, El Arayra. Through it all, her feelings for Marcelo grow into something Jayda never dreamed was possible, and she's forced to admit that everything she once believed about giants was wrong. Updates on Wednesdays and Saturdays!

A wall separates the two kinds: giants that stand higher than sky-scrapers and humans that are no more than tiny insects to them. When Neeve meets Cameron via a radio transmission, the two hit it off more than they'd expected. It is only when the wall is unexpectedly destroyed, that their worlds combine, for the better and for the worse.

'Let me help you.' It's a simple request, but it still manages to leave Kaylin- a human living in the undercities below a world of towering pertheans- a little confused. After being unexpectedly sent to a deskmate school, she had been trying her hardest to keep her fear of pertheans undisclosed so as not to hurt Derrick, her new deskmate. But after finding out about this fear, he's not hurt or upset- rather, he's offering to help her overcome it. Why? Is beating this fear even possible? What's in store for Kaylin and Derrick when they begin to meet up after school with the goal of fighting this phobia? Trigger Warnings: Some mention of blood, depictions of violence, exaggerated descriptions of the protagonist's fears that may be discomforting or upsetting to some readers. Author's Note: Once the story is completed, I'm going to go through it and create at least one more draft before having it printed. So, some details may change here and there in the future, but the over all plot should stay the same and I plan on leaving the story online for all to read for free for as long as I'm able to! I also plan on creating an audiobook and having the book translated into different languages. Let me know what languages you want to see! Thank you all for your continued support as I develop this passion project, it really does mean the world to me! ❤️
