Star Kissed by LizzyFord

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.

Finding Darkness by Azmavath

The big city can be a dangerous place for anyone, but for someone new to its dangers, it can be deadly. Recently escaped from the people that created her, Six is on the run, out in the world for the first time in her short life. Stalked by a team of the best trackers on the planet, she knows her odds of escape are slim at best. Yet these men are not her most pressing concern. Not when the planet that she was born into is no longer controlled by humans. When every person on the planet lives under the shadow of a race none can defeat. Where your only option is bow the knee, or die.

Illiya - Taylor Neeran Chronicles #1 by jjmathews

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.

Ever will have to decide if she wants to swipe left and pass on saving humanity, or step up to the plate and take on her role as mankind's savior. *This is book one in a series

Front Runner by davshan

In a future where humanity has spread across the stars, the galaxy is fractured by the effects of time dilation and the isolation of far-flung worlds. Two individuals, Rosco Vern and Alexandra Durham, embark on separate journeys to find meaning in the chaos. Rosco Vern once dreamed of advancing humanity's reach through the Front Runner Initiative, a daring project to colonize the inner galaxy using relativistic space vessels. The initiative was meant to push the boundaries of exploration and establish new civilizations, but after dilating tens of thousands of years of time, Rosco is confronted with an unfamiliar and sinister state of affairs in the galaxy. As Rosco ventures into the unknown, he is pulled into a web of events far beyond his control. Forced to confront the consequences of humanity's technological ambition, Rosco's path becomes one of survival, adaptation, and the search for meaning in a universe that seems indifferent to individual lives. Alexandra Durham, an anthropologist who has dilated tens of thousands of years of time over the course of her career, has spent her life traveling to the furthest reaches of human settlement. Her mission: to catalog the varied fates of humanity's diaspora. Alexandra's journey takes her to forgotten worlds and dying civilizations, where she documents the aftermath of humanity's relentless pursuit of progress. As she faces the stark realities of a universe governed by cold logic and power, Alexandra begins to question whether the endless search for knowledge and perfection can truly save humanity-or if it is merely another form of self-destruction.
