Ha! You think your world is sexist? Wait until you see Eletra's! Eletra is a fifteen-year-old girl who lives on the planet Goson. And her world is one of the strictest in the galaxy. Girls live by three simple rules that they must follow in order to live: 1)Always remain feminine 2)Never disobey a man or boy who gives you orders 3) Girls can't be clever, smart, intelligent or amount to anything. If you live by these rules, all girls are assured a "good" life. But Eletra sees things differently. She feels trapped by gender roles, by her society's unwillingness to see girls as anything but worthless beings that must cater to a man's wishes. Eletra is sneaky, clever, and finds ways to beat the system. Take her journey as she finds others who agree with her, as she fights for her rights, and wishes for everyone to be equal.

She survived the end. But it's only the beginning. Ever escaped Earth before life, as she knows it, was wiped from the planet. She lost everything: her parents and sister. Forced to leave behind her best friend, and the two boys she loves; their fate is unknown. She's headed to a new planet, where her brother, whom she thought was dead, waits patiently for her arrival. But this new world is not what it seems and her sister's final words weigh heavily at the forefront of her mind: "your friends may be your foes and your foes may be your only chance for survival." She doesn't know who to trust, including herself. Memory reimaging has scrambled her brain, making it difficult to decipher fact from fiction. To make matters worse, as a genetically modified human and the sole woman with the ability to procreate, Ever finds herself in a unique and terrifying position. The evil corporation, Environettix wants to exploit her, and she's not the only one they are after. The other Mods from Earth have been brought to the new planet, but not for the reasons they believe. Things are spiraling out of control. Environettix is getting desperate and desperation makes people do unimaginable things. As Ever navigates her way through a labyrinth of lies, she discovers one truth to be absolute: They shouldn't be here. This planet does not belong to them, and things that don't belong, have a way of being...extinguished. *This is Book 2 in The Dissonance Series

𝐒𝐩𝐒𝐧-𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐭𝐨 𝐈𝐧 π‡πžπ« 𝐌𝐒𝐧𝐝 - Orianne was a lover girl, whom some considered a hopeless romantic, but she wouldn't dare let the opinions of others knock her off her pivot. She was a young woman who knew what she wanted, and to her, there was nothing wrong with that. She desired the husband, children, dates, random gifts, trips, family outings, and so on. Some would say the reason she can't keep a man is because her standards are high. Which is a ridiculous take. Yes, her standards may be "high," but that's because her father set the tone. She knows what she wants and how she's supposed to be treated, and if you're not giving her that, then you have to go. Out of the few men she has dealt with, she lets them know beforehand what she wants, and it's not her fault that they choose to lead her on under the impression that they wanted the same thing. Another reason men tend to leave her alone is because she's a woman of status, a woman of her word, and a woman about her business. She handles her own and has her own which tends to bruise a man's ego. When asked what she brings to the table, she has a solid answer. She doesn't just bring herself or her body-that's the bonus-she brings communication, trust, comprehension, stability, submission, commitment, and so on. The main question of the matter is, how will Miss. Orianne react when a 19 year old wants to sweep her off her feet and give her everything she wants and more? 𝐜𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐛𝐲 | 𝐦𝐞, @𝐫𝐨𝐲𝐚𝐚π₯𝐭𝐲𝐛𝐫𝐒 ᝰ.ᐟ

Elodie's life changes at the turn of a doorknob when she is forced into joining a secret organization that claims to be protecting the Earth from aliens. But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious. When a mysterious death occurs, revealing a well-concealed secret, things quickly go downhill as humanity's future is placed on the shoulders of a single gaggle of teenagers. *** I hear a sigh from the other side of the door, "Miss. Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258!
