Time travel has been discovered, and developed into a new method of capital punishment: The convict is sent back in time for the least survivable times and places in all of history, where they sure to perish. I am one such prisoner, and were just sent back. But I'm determined to survive

Roots On The Rocks
What if your place in society was determined two centuries before you were born? What if you were resented just for existing? What if you never meant to survive? But I did. I'm an illegal, a drain on society, the descendant of criminals, worthless. I know how to survive and that's all that matters. I never thought I would get, let alone deserved, anything more than that. Why would I? I'm not supposed to even be here. But then I meet them. And him. They aren't supposed to be here either but they are. Could I be part of something bigger? What if is there is something more for me than survival?Complete
Five (Countdown Book 2)
It's my thirteenth birthday. And though most people look forward to their birthday, I was dreading it. I am now the Five, which means I have as many years until I die, and it's down to me to figure out how to save myself and my friends. But we have bigger problems right now. The new Six has run away. With dozens of Government Hunters stalking around, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that she's in danger. Things go from bad to worse when a Government leak starts feeding our details and information about our powers to near enough anyone, for the right price. So it's down to me, my four closest friends and our teacher to find the Six and bring her home safely before she gets caught. The clock is ticking...Complete
L.O.V.E.
100 years ago, amidst WW3's nuclear bombing, a deadly virus was released in the atmosphere and nearly wiping out the humanity. It lives inside the human brain thriving on the empathy receptors, leading to irrational behaviour and ultimately brain death. To slow the damage, scientists created L.O.V.E, short for Living Off Vital Emotions, a nanovaccine that numbs the virus and switches off all strong emotions. As a last resort and with a dying planet, the Supreme Government created the City, a place to contain the infected survivors suitable for the experiment. Those in the first stages of illness became ideal candidates to receive the neuroinhibitor. Having their feelings restrained and their memory altered, those who come of age are designated a life partner through a Selection process, thus preserving the humankind. A few decades after the trial had started, scientists had a major breakthrough. The nanites, which are highly chemically reactive organisms, are changing their bio-engineered purpose when dopamine levels are high. With a new generation of nanoids, stronger and smarter to fight the battle, the virus doesn't have a chance. Many attempts were made to create a man-made version of synthetic dopamine and each time the outcome was a disaster. Their goal is to create new generations, immune to the virus. These are called Purebloods, the offsprings of those who find pure love, the only cure to save them from a violent death. Running out of time, the Experiment entered in its final stages. To minimize the threats, the Colonies have sent their best soldiers to oversee the trial and protect its key subjects. If only things were going according to plan, or better...stay hidden. With Iron Guard, the resistance outside the walls, hunting the Purebloods too, will the trial save human race before it's too late? #3 in #dystopianfuture (27.06.2020)Complete

Nanobots, Murder, and Other Family Problems
My father saved the world once and he's working on saving it again, but I'm going to kill him. Even if the nanotech he pioneered might solve every problem facing the earth, he still needs to die for what he did. I don't care that I'll get experimented on like a lab rat, that I'll have to join his cult-like Butler Institute and pretend to be his loyal follower like my hundred brothers and sisters, or that his tech makes him nearly invincible. I'll pay whatever it costs, even my own mind, to get the power I need to take my revenge. I owe Mom that much.Complete
EXO Legacy
My Father was a soldier... a tough one. He had to be. One day he broke his back while off duty in a wrestling ring. He built a high-tech exo-skeleton with the help of some friends and a few favours that could support himself and give him strength back. With artificial muscle strands and armour, the suit could drop kick a bus... and then some... It used the latest tech in nano-scale power generation and distribution. The suit could power itself as well as a pair of plasma torches when connected right. Then he built a new one... for me... He sent me a coded message one day, "Crack the crate... get the MKII suit... save me." So I am here. Following my father's legacy.Complete

Lab Rat(18+)
. Three years. It had been three years since he'd been taken, experimented on, had his DNA altered and became a freak of nature. He knew because he'd managed to peek at the computer when they dragged him into that dreaded room; the one they used to prod, poke and inject him with god-knows-what. He was considered their only success - meaning their illegal tests hadn't killed him or rendered him paralysed, or worse; brain dead. He was subject 254. And he was the only survivor. At least until she - subject 391 - moved into the cell next door. - - 18th June 2018 - Rank 1 #sciencefiction 17th May 2019 - Rank 4 #romance 22nd Feb 2019 - Rank 1 #superpowers -- ** NOW COMPLETED**Complete
