Ronnie Gold only has one dream.

Every night for the past two years, flickering images of a bloody battlefield have haunted her sleep, and every night, she's the only survivor. She's never told anyone about it, because combined with the dissociative emotional disorder that renders empathy out of her reach, she'd be labeled dangerous.

But amid rising public tensions over an artificial intelligence project she's spearheading, Ronnie's dreams begin to infect her waking life, too. With the visions starting to take on an ominous, almost prophetic quality, Ronnie must sort through the blurred lines of reality before the bloodiest nightmare finally comes true.

| Game of Thrones fanfic becomes Sci-Fi book | Slow-Burn Double Love Triangle | Would you change your body for a robotic one? ❈ ❈ ❈ Mia Tan, a relentless healer, wants to save her hometown colony, Purple Rock, from a merciless, deadly illness. To her dismay, this mysterious plague has driven some to seek salvation in robotic bodies or "suits", forsaking their humanity and their freedom. The company which produces them casts a long and ominous shadow. The small print requires these people to become slaves to rich humans, making their world more totalitarian than it is. That's why Mia embarks on a quest to find a cure and get that company out of business. In the colony of Two Dawns, Mia's path intertwines with James De Jong, son of the Lord Commander and a once-promising astroguard of the Cosmos Elite Patrol. An accident left James in a wheelchair, wielding bitterness like a shield. A suit could ease his suffering―or just swap it for another kind of hell. But fate has other plans. As James becomes Mia's protector and she tends to his rehabilitation, James finds hope in her caring hands. Yet, their growing passion ignites a dangerous fire as they uncover the shocking truth behind the pandemic―while surviving death threats and navigating between a blossoming infatuation with Patrick (James' brother) and Vanessa's rekindling fire (a former fling). Join Mia and James on a heart-pounding journey where the fate of the colonies hangs in the balance, and the lines between humanity and technology blur. The clock is ticking. In a world of intrigue and health uncertainty, no one's fate is certain―especially when forced to choose between love and duty. ❈ ❈ ❈ 🌟 Sci-Fi | Action | Romance | Erotica 🔥 Ethical issues: life-extension techniques MATURE due to swearing, discrimination, violence, and sex.

Pearl Blankenship, an autistic investigative journalist, witnesses the end of the world. Before the nuclear fallout can kill her, a mysterious being offers her a choice: come with him or stay on a dying planet Earth. **** Dumuzi, the being who offered, is an Anunnaki: a descendant of humankind's ancient alien creators. It is his mission to wipe out what remains of humanity in a few short weeks, sparing only those with a thirst for knowledge and moral character. After becoming a journalist, Pearl was mocked online, arrested for trespassing, and challenged globally for her conspiracy theories. Two things she knows for a fact: mankind deserves a second chance, and staying on Earth sounds... well, hazardous. She hopes that by getting closer to Dumuzi, she might be able to change his mind about humanity, as he is a councilman with power. But it isn't going to be easy. Communicating? It's difficult for her. And he is cold, wary of humans, and has weeks left to live due to an illness that plagues him. The more time she spends with him, the more his illness accelerates, and the more steamy attractions ignite into something seriously dangerous. The clock is ticking.
