The galaxy is at war. The Elari combine has launched an invasion on the Terran Alliance, with the goal of complete subjugation. This is the story of the most bloody war in human history, fought with weapons of mass destruction never seen before.

Ashley: Conscripted into the Terran Army at the outbreak of the war, she quickly learned the true horrors of war firsthand. With most of her friends dead, and the Terran army growing increasingly desperate, she wonders if she is really fighting for the right side.

Seth: For Seth, war is the best thing that's happened to him. Trained from an extremely young age in the arts of deception, stealth, and murder, at only age 18 he is undeniably one of the best assassins the galaxy has to offer. This war has brought him hundreds of contracts, but none more dangerous- or profitable- than the one offered to him by the Terran Black Ops Division. The contract: Infiltrate the Elari Combine, and eliminate the Elari Princess. Only one issue; he's in love with her. Or at least, doesn't want to kill her, no matter how many zero's the Terran's put in the reward for her death. 
But he's not the only person the Terran's hired. All the best assassins in the galaxy are closing on on the Elari home world. Seth has to get to her first- more than his love life could be at stake.


Monica: The princess of the Elari, and heiress to the throne, Monica is a brilliant young individual with untold riches and glory at her fingertips. She is also dying. Her condition is the best kept secret in the galaxy, but it's also the most dangerous. No treatment is working, and it gets worse by the day. However, not everything that her family tells her is the truth. The "disease" has started to grant her unfathomable power, unlike anything ever seen before. And not everyone wants her to be the next Queen of the Elari. Surrounded by layers of intricacy and lies, Monica needs to determine who she can trust- her life, and the fate of the entire galaxy depends on it.

Even teen evil queens need love. Right? (Or at least a handsome sword-fighting minion to do their bidding!) *** Bad things happen when Rowen is around and the worst part is, she has no idea why until a massive family secret sends her on a fantastical journey to fight her evil fate. Will Rowen fold into the forces of dark magic or honor her true self? *** On the surface, Rowen Keckilpenny-Brown seems like a normal teenage girl with normal teen problems-no boyfriend, overprotective parents, and no friends other than a three-legged cat. But her wild red hair, reptilian eyes, and legendary temper say otherwise. When Rowen accidentally blows up the school gym, she discovers a dark secret her fathers have kept from her-she's the heir to an evil queen's throne. The current evil queen, Petronella Grimshaw, is desperate to crown Rowan the new sovereign and blackmails her into traveling to the queendom.

Worst of all, Rowan finds herself in a duel against her biggest enemy: herself. She must fight her true fate, in the process uncovering deep familial mysteries and perhaps the biggest secret ever...That maybe, just maybe, she deserves to be loved after all.

Elodie's life changes at the turn of a doorknob when she is forced into joining a secret organization that claims to be protecting the Earth from aliens. But with every step she takes, she finds the organization, or the facility, as they call it, becoming more and more suspicious. When a mysterious death occurs, revealing a well-concealed secret, things quickly go downhill as humanity's future is placed on the shoulders of a single gaggle of teenagers. *** I hear a sigh from the other side of the door, "Miss. Chaucer, you have a wonderful opportunity here, are you going to take it or not?" Now, I am seriously confused, "Opportunity?" She takes advantage of my befuddled state and shoves the door open. Shit. The corners of her mouth pull up, and it's so unnatural, it takes me a moment to realize she's smiling. Major plastic surgery? Probably. Click. Did she just lock the door? She locked the door! I spring towards the house phone, dusty from years of doing absolutely nothing, so I can call the police. I don't make it. Halfway there, I trip on my own pant-leg and face plant on the floor. The woman steps over me and retrieves the phone. She looks at it as if it's a foreign object, "This won't be necessary. All I want to do is talk to you." For some reason, instead of screaming, I stay silent. She smiles and pulls out a chair from the kitchen table for me to sit on. When I don't sit, she says, "If you want to know what's going on, then sit." I think about it for a moment. She hasn't hurt me yet, and I have to admit, I am quite curious as to what's going on. So, call me stupid, but I sit down. "I am from a space organization that protects civilians from . . . outside threats." *** Beautiful cover made by @mahana258!

Maxine is an 18-year-old girl who is bored and lonely, living in California in the year 2351. She's always been fascinated with how humans used to live in houses, drive cars, and the fact that there used to be forests and parks everywhere. Now, after a war that nearly erased humanity, people are forced to live a strict, dull, communist lifestyle. Everyone seems okay with this way of life. Everyone except Maxine. Maxine had always been special; she was often able to predict events. How? She didn't exactly know...yet. When she starts having dreams about a tropical island where people live as they did in the 21st century, she meets the man of her dreams: literally. Her new boiling emotions bring her to wonder...what if it's a real place? When she starts her search for the island and bumps into Elis-the man in her dreams-she suddenly knows it wasn't all just a making of her imagination.

However, not everything is what she thought it would be when she finally finds the island, and her dreams become a harsh reality. Elis turns out to be someone else, and when another man swoops in every time Maxine is in danger, she becomes confused about what love really is. The Advisors, the ten women governing the world, want to assimilate the people of the island, not knowing that those people have an extreme advantage over them. Maxine also learns that her family has been lying to her about who she really is. Ultimately, when the Advisors come to destroy the island, she must face the fact that she is the key to the island's salvation, and embracing her rapidly developing abilities is the only way to do so.
