Interstellar travel involves very large, complex ships. While the ships are as diverse as the species that use them, there is one constant. Rungrats live in the ships and maintain them. They pay little attention to what nation or people the ship belongs to, only that they do their job and do it well. Gris is a rungrat on an embassy ship that encountered a broken down ship from Earth. As this was Earth's first attempt at interstellar travel, the ship's crew knew little about the existence of cultures outside of their own planet. But with the help of Gris and his friends, the two cultures learn more about each other as Earth's interstellar progress advances.

Star Kissed
When Mandy loses her job, she thinks she’s hit rock bottom – until her plane is swallowed by a strange storm that sends her and everyone else on board 10,000 years into the future. At first, she thinks the scary world is nothing more than a bad dream. The war-torn Earth is unrecognizable. Black fog blocks the sun, and the oceans are dry. Even worse: the planet is inhabited by half-human, half-alien creatures dying from a mysterious disease. Horrified at the thought of spending her life here, she clings to the knowledge that there’s one man who can open the star gate to send her home. As the Naki prince who controls the star gate, Akkadi gets first choice of any human female that makes her way through the star gate. Only by breeding with purebred humans from the past can his race hope to remain immune to the disease and hopefully, develop an eventual cure. With shrinking resources and a raging battle for the human planet, dutiful, commanding Akkadi is less than thrilled at the idea of trying to figure out Mandy, a woman he views as wild with neither discipline nor respect for someone in his position. He’s ready to write her off, when she offers him something too tempting to resist: her body for the chance to convince him by any means possible to send her home. Neither intends for the arrangement to be permanent or to fall for the other. Only when Mandy learns Akkadi’s secret and walks away does he realize he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her – even if it means losing his war.Completa

Illiya - Taylor Neeran Chronicles #1
A.D. 3485 Missing out on the next semester of university was the least of my problems. Getting stuck on an alien planet was infinitely worse. It could have happened to anyone, really. Except they don't generally invite university students along to survey new planets. There are probably good reasons for that, but, well - the captain of the ship was my absentee mother, and an exception was made. I was supposed to have two whole months to get to know her better while I sharpened my Xenobiology skills in a verdant paradise. With any luck, I would graduate early. Then I messed up, big-time. Now I'm lost, alone and struggling to survive, stranded ten thousand light-years from home.Completa
Supernova Blitz
Journal Entry: SB-0001 December 18th, 2031 It has been about five months since the attack, and our meager fleet of ships are clinging to life. It all started with an interstellar signal. Sometimes, superstition has it right. It might not have been wrong to compare that dreadful signal to the blaring of the trumpets signaling the end of times. By the time they arrived, they knew us as if they had been watching us all along. Their invasion was swift, precise, and purpose-driven, ruined only by our own short-sighted counterattack that delayed the inevitable. And, during that delay, a small fraction of humanity managed to escape into the stars. With our homeworld of Earth gone in the blink of an eye, we are now forced to survive on modified cruiseliner starships and cling to life as our pursuers relentlessly hound us, the varying perils of space claw at our very existence, and our own simmering tensions threaten to break into a roiling turmoil. However, if there is one thing that gives me hope as I write this journal entry, it is that humanity can accomplish even the seemingly impossible through cooperation and willpower. Our story unfolding will put both of those to the test... Cover Illustrated by CherryInTheSun

Together with her Captain, she sails the cold, dark void between stars at multiple times the speed of light-to ensure Humanity's survival.
