Trapped with an overbearing Aunt with too many expectations, a self absorbed cousin, and her Uncle as one of her only allies, she tries to find her niche among those around her. But she's always been and always will be different. She's a dreamer, an adventurer, a romantic, and a mystery - all factors not wanted in the women of her age. Yet her life takes a complete turn when the man from her past becomes a part of her present and future. Unable to stand him at first, Juliette is soon thrust into a battle at sea, and one close to home; within her heart. Can Juliette find true love when there's so many ready to snatch it from her?

Taylor has a fatal flaw: she's different. World War III has past and no country has won. The Illuminati, the rumored organisation, has manipulated the war into their favour. They have built a conformist global city with the ruins of the nuclear debri, and are now on a mission to forge a race of superhumans--humans with similar genetic codes that enable quick minds and superior strength. Humans are taught to shun the unusual--others who are cursed with uniqueness, or weaknesses as the Illuminati would label them. Unfortunately for Taylor, she has failed the test and is a weakness, a sore in society's eyes and must be rid of at any cost.

"A smile will get you far, but a smile and a gun will get you farther" -Al Capone. Federal Agent Alex Turner deals better with guns than boyfriends, and prefers it that way. Her emotional range is bleak, but her aim is damn near perfect. Thinking saving the world is a far easier task than dating, Agent Turner springs at the opportunity to prevent young scientist Marcus Gibbs from selling his biological weapon to the highest bidder. With her goal in sight, and Marcus eating out of the palm of her hand, an obstacle she doesn't see coming interferes. Meet Jeremy Hunt -- the distractingly handsome CEO of Sunscape Biotechnologies, and Marcus's boss and best friend. A man who is accustomed to getting what he wants, Jeremy's never been one to take no for an answer, which has Agent Turner realizing for the first time that her wit might get her farther than her weapon. With no protocol or training to reference when it comes to matters of the heart, she worries that this might be her hardest assignment yet. ------------------------------------------ MESSAGE TO READERS: This book has been reduced to a preview in preparation for its publication!

In the year 2092, genetic mutation has cured cancer, but with this new field of research comes a new threat, one the public is blind to. Battling a world controlled by fear, a genius driven by greed, and a species shattered by treachery, one man sees the truth and struggles to end the corruption seething from one of the world's largest corporations. The world as we know it ceases to exist, and he is the only one strong enough to face those that destroyed it. As the lines between man and monster blur, who's to say who the real enemy is.

When death means life and life means death how do you keep the line from blurring? Man has long since been destroyed, nature has reclaimed the earth and all that remains are the Hylen – a race of alien-human hybrids indoctrinated since birth to believe one thing: they are the tainted souls of the humans that once took advantage of the earth, doomed to relive life in a never ending cycle. The only way to break free? Die the most painful death you can. When and how is left up to you – but dare live past twenty and you are doomed. Xeraelyn Reif is one of Seven Sacreds, the only ‘pure’ beings on the earth, believed to have returned voluntarily after breaking free from the cycle to help save those still stuck. She is the Priestess – the one that will guide her people into their next lives and has been raised since birth for this role. Able to recite the Book of Truth and apply it to any situation Xeraelyn is fully aware of what is expected of her. She steps into her role as Priestess gracefully and is the embodiment of what her people strive to be – until rogue forces from Beyond kidnap her and she is forced to realise that the one thing she believed was a part of her is a lie.

What would you do, if greed, evil, and destruction tore your world apart? A long time ago, humans coexisted peacefully with three distinct groups of people—the Magix, the Legions, and the Plein. A hundred years later, they must stay hidden from humans, while fighting a raging war against each other. With the help of the Plein, who are struggling to fight for peace, will this war come to a halt, or will it never end? And will Sara, a new addition to the Plein family; Maxon, scarred by memories of the past; and Michael, whose enemy is no one but his own self; ruin what they themselves have been fighting so hard for?
