Evelyn Scott was working at the mysterious Resurget Corporation - at least, she was until she was fired for no apparent reason. She doesn't think much of it until she loses all memory of working there. One name does keep coming up though: Jack Prentice. What does he want with Resurget? Why did her memory disappear right after she met him? What's with Resurget anyway? And Why does Jack have a spaceship? Honestly, the universe has never been in worse hands.

"Strip. Now!" I aimed my weapon at him with a glare. Upon a passing light, I was granted a clearer view. Intense green eyes were on me, clenched jaw on a keen guard, and a visible scar at the curve of his left cheek. The idle look aired fearless against my warning, forcing my wary to hyperdrive. The sound of rustling ceased my staring. I watched him moving in largo. "Hurry up!" With a lopsided smirk, he started unbuttoning his coat, eyes boring holes on me. "What are you? An android rapist?" He let out with indifferent. "Shut it!" I yelled, trailing my eyes lower. "The pants too." *** Eve had volunteered for an assignment to meet the future.

In a brutal attack from rampaging wildlife, everyone but Shawn and four other colonists are killed.

Aberrant
Wattys 2021 Short List. Shipwrecked on a criminal-infested mining colony, military telepath Reid Kaplan needs answers about the attack on his ship and the unusual alien activity on the planet he's stranded on. Unfortunately, some of those answers might lie in a mind as unique as it is dangerously flawed.

The Xykeree, past enemies of humanity, should never have been allowed to dock at her home port. And they're just the start of her problems. Throw in a hereditary neurological illness and a secret society of soldiers genetically tailored for psionic combat and she has herself a whole new level of trouble ... the kind that could destroy her personal foundations and imperil billions of lives.

The Machine of Life - The Story of Bryan Waterfield
It is the year 2040. Bryan is a senior fullstack software developer and his wife Nicole is a manager at a clothing store. Bryan's wife insists on having children with him, as this would be her wife's dream. After reaching a great level in his life as a programmer and software developer, and having pleasant life experiences with Nicole, Bryan did not expect a great loss in his life: the death of his dear and beloved wife. Nicole had discovered a criminal plan, and since Nicole could legally condemn one of the richest businessmen in Yume, she was executed as a cover-up to avoid suspicion. Would Nicole's dreams of having children have been silenced forever? Not content with his situation, Bryan ventures to create a way to resurrect his wife through teleportation machines that only the company Minefield Technologies has, and he intends to somehow use these machines. As the reader reads, he or she will come across the secrets that the life machine offers to people and how the machine would work in real life, that is, outside the fictional world of Aeternia. One of the book's goals is to provide real alternatives and possibilities for human resuscitation and immortality through science and technology. In addition, many lessons and discoveries can be learned from a rich and productive story. Suspense and surprises are guaranteed. I'm sure it's the kind of story that Jeff Bezos would enjoy reading.Complete
