action action-adventure action-thriller adventure balance duo fighting identity life masks mercenary partners sciencefiction scifi space thriller

In this mercenary industry of ours, all manner of people find themselves with unexpected bedfellows. Audax Aquilla and Vanessa are a prime example of surprising success in spite of their odd partnership. They've been good friends for years as the aloof but professional Audax and abrasive but skilled Vanessa. Their relationship suddenly changes, after one near fatal encounter with an aging security bot. That night, scared for Audax's life, Vanessa pulls off the mask, and to her shock finds the utter mess known as Phil Giampoalo. They can't go on as their mercenary personas and I can only hope that the two people would accept one another and remain partners.

FIRELINE: Book 2 by Madam-Butterfly

Sequel to Bound to Honor In war, trust is fragile. In betrayal, it burns. After surviving an ambush that tore Unit Nine apart from the inside, Lieutenant Colonel Rhys Callan is left picking up the pieces-and burying the man he once called brother. The traitor is dead. But the enemy isn't. And the questions Carter left behind run deeper than blood. Sent home on mandatory leave, the team scatters. Some heal. Some drink. Some disappear. Major Cecelia Livingston doesn't have that luxury. Still recovering from the last mission-and from being used as a hostage in Carter's final act-she's barely holding it together. The base is quiet. Too quiet. And Callan is keeping his distance. Again. But the silence doesn't last. Encrypted messages. Unexplained surveillance. A buried file Carter never had clearance for. Something is still moving behind the curtain-and all signs point to a larger, darker force pulling the strings. As secrets surface and loyalties fracture, Cecelia and Callan find themselves drawn back into the fire. The tension between them has never burned hotter-but trust comes slow when the last one you gave it to held you at gunpoint. The line between command and connection is razor-thin. And someone is waiting for them to cross it.

Miss Marvelous: Chaotic Summer by MichelleT530

After finishing her first year of high school, Vanessa tags along with her foster dad Joe to The Acres, a retreat center in Watertown US, to deal with the new Rabies variant that's becoming a global crisis due to the wide spread of Albino Anacondas. During her stay at the camp, Vanessa makes some new friends, gets tangled in new life or death situations, meets a mysterious stranger, and taps into a stronger power she never knew she was capable of. Teaser: The closest one to me is in Watertown. After a minute or two of showing the list, the camera flickered back to the lady and she began talking about how the U.S government will deal with this new virus. Losing interest in the topic, I switched the channel to DisneyPlus and put on one of my top favourite movies; Doctor Strange. I love how the editors behind the movie made the effects SO realistic. Twenty minutes into the movie, I got a text from my friend Rachel.

'Sacmis' (formerly 'Alien Abduction') by AdrianaNicolas

Four women - a lawyer, a teacher, an athlete and a soldier - are abducted by four alien men. The aliens, far from being bug-eyed monsters, have 90% human DNA. Despite the circumstances, the women are fascinated by their captors. Particularly when they discover the men have taken time to learn everything about them: even down to filling the women's on-board wardrobes with their favourite labels! ("For an alien," says Amisha, "he certainly knows how to shop.") They also discover that the men have the power to connect with them at a deeper level. So much so that the women can experience - directly - what it is like to be a man! With amazing consequences. But danger threatens: not just the women, but mankind itself. On the aliens' home planet of Sacmis, a genetic disorder has resulted in male births massively exceeding female births. So much so that most men can never hope to have a relationship with a woman. Let alone sex. To save the planet from extinction, Sacmis has prepared a fleet of slaveships to abduct compatible women from Earth in large numbers, to be used purely for breeding purposes. Somehow, the four alien men and the four women have to stop them. © Adriana Nicolas 2016

Born in Sin [BOOK 1] by Shadoevines

"Trespassing in a commoners home is 1 year in prison...2 if you're discovered to be a thief. The laws on Crex are pretty strict... but to trespass into the palace?" She let out a low whistle. "That's pretty bad." Great. Neo thought, this was just what he needed. Not only was he currently being humiliated by wearing this movement restricting collar, but now he was currently being sassed by a Vaulkarian female that should be in bed and resting. ~~~ Neo Adranni is a charming, puns ahoy kind of guy. In fact, he's not just any guy. He's secretly a prince from planet Valaria who ran away in search for something greater, and so far he thinks he's got it. The life as a thief has been WAY more exhilarating then sitting around in a palace learning proper etiquette. (And of course it's always nice being Vaulkarian, the most gorgeous of humanoid aliens, especially when your in the mood for a quick bump in the night.) Jacquelyn Wake, a small servant girl with a lot of tricks up her sleeves. She's adored by the Queen of Crex, so much so that she's even considered to be the adopted daughter. She works to earn her keep, to help in any way she can if there's a job to be done, against the Queen's wishes might I add. However, despite all this, there has always been something... off about her. She's always watching. Always listening. And always seems to be in the right place at the right time... A true tale of love that only just barely SCRATCHES the surface of what is to come for the galaxy. After all this is just BOOK 1 "Sometimes... Love is worth dying for."

Under His Watch by JeniRaeD

Willow Creek, First Responders Series Book 1 She's a Time Bomb. And I Lit the Match. **My new laugh-out-loud, romantic, ROMCOM.** Kylie's trouble. She always has been. She's also the only person who's ever made me forget I was supposed to follow the rules. I should keep my distance. She's unpredictable. Sharp-tongued. Way too hot to be trusted. And if she finds out what really happened that summer? Everything between us could explode. But every time she looks at me with those creamy, chocolate-colored eyes-- I wonder if I'd burn for her all over again. *** KYLIE: Community service sucks. Being supervised by Killian Moody? Worse. He's grumpy. Gorgeous. Zero fun. I swear he's made of granite and unresolved issues. But beneath that badge is a man who looks at me like I'm fire and he wants to burn. Too bad I'm starting to want it. KILLIAN: She's a menace. Kylie Everhart walks into every room like she owns it-and then sets it on fire. And maybe that's not just a metaphor. There's a file with her name on it. A date she doesn't remember. And the look in her eyes tells me she's close to finding out everything. I should stay away. But every time she pushes my buttons, I come undone.

How To Ruin A City by darkestnightskies

Who said heroes and villains couldn't offer each other mutual benefits? In a region run by supers, Nic is a crooked superhero only in it for the money while Catalina wants to do whatever it takes to label herself as a villain. Their conflict was inevitable, but dirty minds think alike. The duo form an alliance in order to con the biggest hero organization in the city, The Vigilante Assistance Hotline, hoping to make some extra cash on the side while never having to do any real work. But TVAH isn't what it seems. With corruption already running rampant throughout the company, Nic and Catalina are forced to step up to play hero in order to save their city from a group hellbent on hunting down supers just like them. -- "I get paid every time I fight a villain, even if I don't apprehend you." "So...If I got away and we fought again, you'd get paid even more than you would tonight, right?" His eyes lit up as he understood my train of though. With a smirk, he said, "I like the way you think." -- (TAKE NOTE THAT THIS BOOK TAKES PLACE A LITTLE OVER TWO YEARS AFTER THE BEST INTENTIONS BUT IT IS NOT THE SEQUEL TO IT.) -- #1 in supervillain on May 15th, 2021 #1 in cryokinesis on September 1st, 2019 #1 in pyrokinesis on May 29th, 2021

U.S.S.A. Alice by Umbralmen01

In the distant future of the 28th century, mankind had survived near extinction then made it into the wider galaxy. With almost no other sapient life in the Milky Way to stop humanity's expansion. Space was ripe for the picking. Now mankind and the enigmatic Voidrians formed the U.S.S.A. The (United Solar Systems Alliance). Before Mankind became the dominant force in the Milky Way, Earth was in shambles. Natural resources were nearly depleted, diseases were rampant and most of Earth's population was in poverty. Then by some miracle of discovery or a cruel cosmic joke, in the mid-23rd century when all humanity could do was go out into space to search for a new home, a small planet that was black as the void around it was discovered. The humans who landed on the little planet had nearly lost all hope until they stumbled upon unknown ancient ruins beneath the planet's surface where they discovered untold amounts of bizarre advanced technology. Earth and humanity were saved, and the little planet to thank for their salvation was named Umbra. Alice is a xenoarchaeologist, her passion in life has always been the study of ancient cultures, and now she has the opportunity to study the most ancient one of them all. The very one that modern Human civilization was built on. Alice and her boyfriend accepted a posting on the famous and ancient ship, the U.S.S.A Umbra.

[Featured on WATTPAD PICKS] The last thing you'd imagine Earth's General having is an identity crisis, let alone in the middle of an interstellar war, but for General Avalyn Concerto she begs to differ. ⋆⋆⋆⋆ Ever since the last battle against Primordial--Earth's immortal alien foe--Ava has been living in a constant nightmare. She will never forget how heavy the sword feels in her palm, how her abilities take over. She will never forget the moment she kills her best friend, the moment before she lost control. Attempting to fix herself, Ava ventures off into the demon-infested world in search of her missing birth record. She will do whatever it takes to find it, even if that means breaking the laws and committing treasonous acts. But once Ava is caught, she quickly finds out it will take more than thievery and violence to stitch herself back together. It will require dark magic, a pair of alien princes, a pompous man whose hair is as white as snow, a blue god's threat, and the perfect stage set for secrets to unfold.

A Bird's Eye View: The Villain and the Hero's Love Affair by imnotcomfortablehere

You're just a little birdie, minding your own business-flying around, dodging falling leaves, trying not to get too involved in the messes of the city below. But, oh, the drama! The masked hero and the brooding villain you've been watching for months-yeah, those two? They have a lot of secrets. The hero's perfect, obviously, saving the world and all that. But the villain? Oh, dear. By day, they wear a mask of evil and power, but you've seen what happens when the cape comes off. There's some serious darkness lurking in their private life-self-loathing, quiet pain, and way too many late-night mood swings. But don't worry, the villain's got it under control... or so they think. You thought their love story was one of those sweet "enemies-to-lovers" kind of deals, until you saw the truth from way up here. It's a mess. Betrayal. Anger. Love. Secret identities. A fight that's way more personal than you ever imagined. But hey, that's not your problem, right? You're just a bird. Except, well... Maybe you care. Maybe you're the one who's been flying around, wondering if their messy, secret love story will ever have a happy ending-or if one of them will end up on the wrong side of the city's skyscraper (literally). From your vantage point, it's a little too close for comfort, but hey-no one ever said love was easy, even for villains and heroes. Just try not to get caught in the crossfire, okay?
