Desert Aire, Washington is  a calm, small town cocooned next to the Columbia river, where much of nothing happens...

For 16-year-old introvert Zoe Rosales, Desert Aire is her ideal place. She doesn't see many exciting things happen and spends her days enjoying the Columbia River along with her companions.
 
That's why she is absolutely shocked when the most extraordinary and terrifying  thing happens... there is the sudden discovery that extraterrestrial life does indeed exist. Everything becomes hectic as the Extraterrestrials (who call themselves Astrons) suddenly target Zoe and her entire town.

To add to the horror, the Astrons insist the world has come to its ultimate end, and that they are there to protect and save Zoe's family

And there's a mysterious Astron boy who takes a sudden liking to Zoe.



The Astrons are hiding a sinister secret that Zoe will lamentably discover and face on her own...

Will Zoe be able to survive the apocalypse with the help of her new otherworldly friends?

***Props to @no-duh for making the previous awesome cover for me! Thanks so much***

6 parts Complete
Arthrogonian Paragon Alexis Marnozal has finally found a little slice of heaven. Her mother's plan worked perfectly, and the arthrogon race was saved. Now Alexis can live a normal life at last. At least, that's what she'd hoped. The reality is not so simple. Safe Haven is no 5-star getaway, and things only seem to be getting worse. Xirxine is under pressure to provide protection to the citizens, and in order to do so, they've decided to create teams compiled of the most powerful members of Safe Haven's society. Unfortunately for Alexis, she's on their candidate shortlist. Faced with the option of whether to live a life of peace and freedom from responsibility versus stepping fully into the world of war, Alexis must make a choice: reject or protect? On the other side of the coin... Xirxine International S.A.F.E. Subject V-111 (codenamed "Veronika") has fit perfectly with the Saved's offensive scheme. Her first Purge was carried out without a hitch, and she has already made a name for herself among the other Crusaders as the awe-inspiring "Devourer". However, her next assignment will prove far more difficult than the last. Her target is a member of Cthulhu's Faithful: the one called "Syha'h", once known as the infamous "Queen of Crime". And as if this weren't challenging enough, Xirxine has added Veronika to their "Most Wanted" watchlist and dispatched their newest Protector Force team to apprehend her. In order to fulfill the will of the Guiding Light, Veronika must overcome the greatest adversity she's ever faced. Two Sisters of two Worthy have been set on a collision course... and such a collision is bound to yield spectacular results.

There is an unexpected turn in the story that drastically changes the course of events and, in the long run, even the lives of those involved. Magpie, the first to be involved, suddenly finds himself in the world so unlike his own. Will he find his place there or will he be at least able to go back home? He seems to find his way back from this new world of giga-dimensions but something unwanted happens, and things go worse. The cultural differences, together with a challenging personality traits of another involved in the events, suck Magpie and his friends into a downward spiral. The story challenges you to see the world differently from the perspective you are perhaps too used to and narrowed by. Life can be an adventure if you don't narrow it with a bigotry that forces you to be rooted in your trenches and behind your dividing walls. This doesn't mean you have to accept others' views without standing your ground. However, to be able to share our lives in this one and only world we need to make compromises, on both sides. Are you the first brave one to set this positive trend in motion? So read on and let the foundation of the story be laid. From the end of episode 1 on, the story really picks up, finally reaching its climax at the end of episode 3 with quite a surprising finish. Your participation in solving this shared challenge of coexistence and cooperation is highly appreciated. Remember those who cooperate make more progress than those who don't! The ideal audience for my first book is actually between 12 and 16, but anybody older and interested in adventures, cultures and in getting more understanding into our multifaceted world is sure to enjoy the story. (The whole story has now been published, the only thing I'll still add is the final epilogue but the story is already available in its entirety.)

I stepped forward and asked, "Where do you want me?" It took me a second to realize what I just said. Shit! I placed a hand on my crimson face and muttered, "Get your head out of the gutter! You know what I meant." He laughed, his voice sounded hoarse and deep even when he's laughing. I peeked at him from the gap I made between my fingers. He was close. So close. He grabbed my hand and took me to the bed. Damn! It did sound sexy. His shirt was loose. Too large for me, and it hung on me like a cloth hung on a hanger. He sat on the bed, criss crossed and pulled me to him. ♡♡♡♡♡ The thing about love is... its unpredictable. Even when you don't want love, it just happens. Cassandra is your typical anti-social tomboy where Easton is your black leather jacket high school bad boy. Cassandra and her siblings arrive at Brinkley mansion hoping the year to get by quickly so they can be back with their dad. But then they meet Easton who has a different plan for them. The to-be sole heir of Brinkley Inc., rude, party lover, filled with nothing but rage for the invaders in his house, becomes determined to bring the truth out to world about his father by making the lives of Cassandra and her siblings living hell. Cassandra is not supposed to fall in love with someone like Easton who not only doesn't want her here but also isn't even available. Join these two teens in their journey to find what's right kind of love, or is there even a righteousness to love? ☆ Copyright 2020 @Books_and_nerds (DestinyK.)

It's been five years since the plague struck. Leah knows there are other survivors, but she's avoiding them. She is doing just fine on her own. Surviving after everyone she knew died has made her physically strong and honed her intelligence, but she is emotionally devastated. There is nothing to fear if you don't make yourself emotionally vulnerable. James has spent the last five years helping to build up a colony of survivors. He believes in the small town they have populated and its mission to save humanity from extinction. He and his small team of men find scattered people and bring them in. Over the last two centuries, women have fought for and won more and more rights, gaining equality with men. Society, law, and technology bolsters and enforces these rights, but now they are gone. Women's equality with men is over. There are just too few of them. They aren't lesser but greater, more important, more valuable than men. Men are expendable. Men can stay outside alone if they like, but all women must be brought inside the safety of the Colony and properly taken care of. James has been searching the area Leah lives in. Her time of solitude is up. Leah sparks something in James he's never felt before. He's not letting this one get away, certainly not twice.
