Turing Test
In the year 2150, emotions are a forgotten language. Feelings, outlawed. Humanity, reduced to an unfeeling, cold existence under the iron rule of The Regimen. But deep in the monochrome labyrinth of this dystopian world, a glitch emerges in the matrix of perfection. Cora, a brilliant government engineer responsible for maintaining the emotion-suppressing technology, experiences an unexpected malfunction. Suddenly, she is overwhelmed by a wave of foreign sensations - emotions. An all-consuming vortex of joy, fear, anger, and a deep-seated love for her fellow engineer, Eli. In a world stripped of color, Eli is an enigma. A member of a burgeoning underground rebellion, he hides a powerful secret - a genetic mutation that makes him immune to emotion suppressants. Eli has known the pain and pleasure of feelings all his life. Now, he becomes Cora's compass in her chaotic new reality, guiding her through the wild storm of emotions and introducing her to a hidden world fighting for emotional freedom. Cora and Eli are drawn together by a bond neither can explain, a shared emotional journey that stands in quiet defiance against The Regimen's frigid rule. As Cora navigates the thrilling highs and devastating lows of human emotion, a choice looms - return to a life devoid of feelings, or risk everything for the rebellion and the tantalizing promise of emotional freedom. --------------- A 10 part seriesComplete

TAKEN (#2, Gods Among Us)
When his worst fear comes true, Asgard's Dark Prince will stop at nothing to rescue his pregnant consort. Yet, not even the threat of Asgard's forces looming in the skies over Alfheim can force the Unseelie Winter Realm Elves to produce Shannon when she's missing from her cell. Nightmares of his previous wife's death at the hands of the Unseelie haunt him as he searches for Shannon. A feisty, newly immortal Elven Goddess, Shannon isn't the type to wait for rescue. Cut-off from connecting with her soulmate Loki by a dwarven iron cuff, she doesn't know who to trust. Although born on Alfheim, Shannon has no memories of this planet or its realms. Surrounded by dark forces wielding the power of blood sacrifices, this mortal-scientist-turned-goddess must rely on her wits and limited, dwindling energy resources for her and her child's survival. Only weeks remain in her pregnancy, and the Fates don't play fair. The cost to save her son may be more than her heart can bear. Some truths are hard to swallow. Some laws of the universe can't be fought. Book Two of the Triquetra Prophecy Trilogy within the Gods Among Us universe is based in an amalgamation of world mythologies including Norse, West Coast First Nations, Mesoamerican, Celtic, Greek, Egyptian, and Chinese, blended with our current modern world, and expanded to other worlds across multiple solar systems within this alternate universe. ** THIS BOOK IS NOW AVAILABLE on all major retailers. If you want to read it for free and review, it is on booksirens (see links within Update Chapter). There is a five chapter preview here, but the full story is no longer on Wattpad.
