Women dominate society and due to their superiority, men are forced to live on the lowest rink of the "Beringia", a space station that orbits the desiccated Earth.
Meredith "Red" Hamasaki, a seaboard expeditioner on the "Beringia", voyages to the abandoned planet Earth. Unbeknownst to her, she is a pawn in a perilous conquest, and pursues the truth behind the apocalypse and why she dreams of a past life on Earth. People are told that Earth was a dead planet, but what happens when Red finds a terrifyingly charming man remaining on Earth?
Jessamyn Arendse, a mischievous lieutenant and Red's best friend, likes to indulge in confidential military affairs by using her tech skills and "assets" to extract the latest information. Nothing makes her more excited than to play with a certain high-ranking general.
Olufunke "Lulu" Ivers, a rebel force messenger, is a young girl disguised as a man to deliver coded messages through espionage and to continue living with her sickly father and her five brothers in the slums of the "Beringia".
This is a story of love, affliction, self-discovery, and what it means to be human. Follow along their different perspectives as they navigate post-apocalyptic life in space and on the abandoned Planet Earth. Who knows what they'll find.

[Book 2 of the ARC10 Trilogy] Rampant addictions, psychotic breakdowns, and threats of mutiny keep Commander Janika Lorn up all night. Transporting two-thousand souls safely from a destroyed Earth to a new habitat aboard the refugee ship ARC10 has been a special kind of hell - especially while also hiding her illegal pregnancy from her commanding officer. She wonders if they should turn around and take their chances in the crumbling underground bunker city they abandoned, even with the hostile invading aliens still patrolling the sky.

As usual, Commander Janika Lorn is wrong. When she finally hits an all-time low in the confines of an alien prison, a botched rescue operation puts her life in the black-gloved hands of Captain Shin-Hyun Moon of the HMS Valediction - a notorious vagrant and patchwork monster who was stitched together with the eclectic skins of the galaxy.

ARC10
[Book 1 of the ARC10 Trilogy] **Winner of the 2017 Watty Storysmith award** The President created an underground safe-haven for the survivors of the alien invasion. He built it to save them all from total annihilation. He protects them, feeds them, keeps them under his ever-watchful gaze so they can live. All he asks is that they obey. Captain Janika Lorn doesn't want to obey. Not if it means spreading her legs and contributing to the President's precious eugenics program. As a perfect candidate for the Human Hope Project, she is obligated by law to make more citizens for the dying society. But all she wants is her freedom to fight the Invaders and protect the people who already exist. If the mandated program wasn't bad enough, the worst part is trying to fulfill it with Captain Dean Freyer, her scientifically matched partner and best friend of sixteen years. Just as Captain Lorn is about to succumb to her fate, another opportunity arises. A mysterious commanding officer asks her to lead a human refugee ship--to save humanity by evacuating the destroyed Earth and shuttling the remaining population to a new habitable exoplanet 400 light years away. The mission is perilous. Especially because now, standing between her and her freedom is the hostile alien hosts of her ship, the ARC10, a sister returned from the dead, an array of impossibly confusing alien tech, a rekindled heat between her and Dean, and a sexy militia chief she can't seem to keep her hands off of. ARC10 is a romance-heavy sci-fi with the speculative horror of Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale and the military action of Battle: Los Angeles. Cover art by @FayLane Copyright © 2016 by LL MontezComplete
