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***

(Perfect read for Romance/Sci-fi enthusiasts :). )

6 parts Complete
When 18 year-old trust fund kid Quinn York's tourist shuttle to Mars unexpectedly crashes, he wakes up only remembering one name: Celeste. He knows he has to find her no matter the cost, even if he loses his own life in the process. Quinn discovers the world is changed however; the nuclear holocaust that caused the shuttle to crash also set the world in commotion. It becomes a "kill or be killed" life for Quinn as he does anything he can to find Celeste. To do so, he must survive cruel raiders, grotesque animals, and a new breed of mutated human survivors called Skulks. **PLEASE NOTE: This is a progressive book, meaning throughout the book, the main character will be presented with different options. A "Choose Your Own Adventure" if you will! It is up to you as the readers to determine the actions of Quinn York. I don't know how this story will turn out, and I'm excited to see what path it takes. Will Quinn be a fearless raider killer or will he become the most horrible human being on the planet? THE READERS WILL DECIDE - HIS FATE IS IN YOUR HANDS!!! **Please comment at the end of the chapter about which action you vote for to make it simpler for all of us. I will require a minimum number of comments/votes before moving on, which I will state at the end of the chapter. I will post a new chapter once a week, because I do have a busy life, and I will be doing several revisions on top of massive brainstorming depending on what options you all choose. So please be patient, and please "LIKE" my book to spread the love. Thanks and enjoy reading "Nuclear"

The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through inkitt or galatea!!!) (some read events may apply) (check update chapter for more details!) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react. (Book 2 LTF series) (CAN be read as a stand alone, but not recommended for nostalgia reasons~) (ps this is UNEDITED, grammar and spelling mistakes will ensue!) (NOTE: THIS IS ITS OWN STORY NOT A CONTINUATION. SAME CHARACTERS BUT DIFFERENT PLOT.)(Last to fall au/spin-off)

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. Finding that island could mean finding the answers to her burning questions, and maybe even answers to questions she didn't know she had. 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.

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.
