Despite being born in a society where change was on the horizon, neighbours Kade Opten and Grace Foxe grew up protected, in a world where everything was as it should be. For the most part.
At the age of 10, Kade was initiated into a junior military training program and both he and his parents beamed with pride. Little did he know, he hugged his friend goodbye for the last time. Never again would he see her as she was all those years ago.
He never expected her to show up and when she did, he almost didn't recognize her how could he? Ten years change a person; he knew that and what made him the most nervous was that she did too.

Bloodlines & Betrayal
In the shadowed alleys of The Kingdom of Necrovia, rebellion festers, and secrets writhe like poison beneath the surface.

Sheltered for years by her father's iron grip, she is desperate to prove herself and escape the chains of her family's suffocating legacy. But the rebel army offers no sanctuary. Among its ranks is Damian Diamandiz-mysterious, cocky, and the last person Persephone wants to trust.

Fractured Echo
In a world where survival is a privilege and freedom is a myth, Victoria Kines is more than just another prisoner-she's an anomaly. Born with an ability no one understands, she has spent years locked away by the Dominion, their cruel experiments breaking her body but never her mind. Yet, her greatest secret isn't her power. It's the child in her arms-the only thing keeping her from losing herself completely. But the Dominion doesn't plan to keep her caged forever. When Kade Mercer, a ruthless officer with abilities of his own, is tasked with controlling her, their fates become dangerously intertwined. Kade has spent his life following orders, absorbing power, and playing the perfect soldier. But Victoria is different. She defies him. Challenges him. And in the quiet moments between war and destruction, she makes him question everything. As rebellion rises and the Dominion tightens its grip, Victoria must make an impossible choice-become the weapon they want her to be, or risk everything to escape. But in a world built on power and control, love might be the most dangerous thing of all. Because even broken things can still burn.
Gods Under The Dome
[Editors' Choice 2020] In a near-future, post-apocalyptic world, a lone girl must choose between becoming the next-in-line to head a corrupt government or siding with those who wish to see the world burn. Order, suppression and lies, or chaos, truth and freedom? Whatever is chosen, one thing is clear: both sides bleed. ***** Every year, the Federated United Americas tasks its elite soldiers to participate in a nation-wide Cull. Hundreds of children are taken from homes and put into one of three Facilities. While most of them will be offered comfortable lives in the forms of low-ranking government jobs and militia commandos, a few will be groomed to be the successors for the highest office the FUA has to offer: The Council. Beckett Blake is known in the Facility as Ten, and she alongside six others branded 'Liars', have spent years enduring confinement and rigorous testing in order to secure a future as head of the FUA. When a terrorist group breaks into the Facility and kidnaps Ten and the others, she's forced to re-examine her future plans. Required to become a drug runner in the mega-city known as Neon Brights, Ten must decide if the future she'd been promised since childhood is worth the lies it's built upon. Will Ten choose the future that's been decided for her, or will she carve out one all her own, even if that path leads to her destruction? Cover by @eosophobiasComplete

What's even more terrifying is that he might be, too. She isn't ready for love. Not yet.
