BOOK #1 [A Watty Finalist & Newly Edited!]
The Swarm - thought to have originated from biological warfare, arrived, it killed and left millions dead in its wake and still has not been eradicated as it makes its way around the world. A cure is not possible.
Irissa Maclin, a reclusive and hostile girl from a desert region that borders the capitol Arid, is on the verge of turning seventeen. Girls of this age from the surrounding regions are selected at random for surrogacy. They will be taken to PURE, a lab to help harbor Seraphim - genetically perfect embryos.
If she is to be sent away, can the turmoil deep within her be mended by a young man from a neighboring region - a forbidden attraction that can change everything?
Secrets, betrayals, and love pave the path for Irissa. Will she choose her own fate, or succumb to the science that promises a brighter future?

Kadota (Love Trilogy)
In the quiet desert village of Dey, living among the sand dunes and mirages, existed an anomaly - me. I was different, born without the ability to read, write or keep long memories. My scientist father hailed my uniqueness as a miracle, but my life was far from ordinary. To the village, I was just an oddity, a walking puzzle with missing pieces. My only solace was my best friend, always standing by me, his unspoken love for me etched in his affectionate gaze. We lived under a cruel regime with a population no more than a hundred. Every year, one of us would be chosen on the Counting Day, a ceremonious banishing ritual, to become yet another outcast to the floating prison island far off in the ocean - our village's dreaded version of population control. Our past criminals, defiant to government, and more terrifyingly, our loved ones gone missing, were thought to inhabit that island, their fate, a terrifying enigma. This year, as the Counting Day approached unrelentingly, and my loved one's life rested on borrowed time, I made a decision. I volunteered to be casted out. It was my turn to face the unknown with a hidden purpose - to locate my lost father who was sent there years ago.Terminé

Enhanced
We have always been destined to rise above our already fascinating sentience; To evolve into something greater than we now are. Change is a fundamental essence of the reality we live in today, an aspect of life that has been here for centuries. A strand in our beautiful nature that we have learned to despise. As the saying goes, 'People are afraid of what they don't understand'. People tend to fight back against change and others embrace it. When the chance of evolution finally reveals itself to us, on what side will we be on? The side that chooses to let it soar the skies, or the side that chooses to use it selfishly? Humans are magnificent creatures, not because of their awareness of life. But for their capability to unite and divide themselves because they choose to do so. (This trilogy is dedicated to those oppressed by the violence and suffering that discrimination may bring upon them.) April 19th, 2020Terminé
