shiver (FEATURED) | ✓
**CURRENTLY A FEATURED STORY** highest ranking: #11 in Science fiction ❝true happiness is only achieved without freedom. There is a girl who wakes to a world that she was supposed to protect. Instead, she fights it. There is a man who is cursed with the ability to dream. A glass city is their cage, a city filled to the brim with unanimity and order, a paradise on an earth laid to waste by an artificial snowstorm. Sunlight filters through the glass buildings and through glass walls, pierces glass floors. It illuminates the city square when it is strongest at noon, surrounded by a huddled mass of citizens, all as perfect as the city they inhabit. And they all think: everything is as it should be. And it is. Or, it was. -- long live perfection.❞ (c)sarahgaier2016 #diverselit | #LoveEqualsLove | #helpfightcliches | #freethelgbtq | #badassreads check out my Science Fiction novella, Sector-33, here! https://www.wattpad.com/story/62174094-sector-33Complete

Post Plague Kidnapping - Published!
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.

Under a Matra Sky
Kael never wanted to come to Lysena: a prosperous matriarchal world where women hold social power and men are expected to know their place. But when his family's transport ship is forced to make an emergency stop, they find themselves stranded in a society that challenges everything Kael believes about freedom, authority, attraction, and what it means to be a man. Far from home, Kael struggles to adapt to life on Lysena. He hates the rules. He hates the attention. Most of all, he hates Sari: sharp-tongued, clever, and impossible to ignore. She seems to take endless pleasure in flustering him, turning every conversation into a game he can never quite win. But the more Kael resists her, the more tangled their rivalry becomes. Every tease, every challenge, every brush of her hand leaves him unsettled in ways he doesn't understand. And when surrender begins to feel less like defeat and more like desire, Kael is forced to confront a truth he never expected: Maybe he doesn't want to escape Lysena after all. He swore he'd never bend. She swore she'd make him hers.
Confutatis Maledictis
Privacy. Freedom. Justice. These are lies that are perpetrated by the world to give the illusion of free-will. They are the power. They are watching. They are listening. They are tired of your dissent and disobedience. They are coming to delete you from the past, the present and the future. Who will stop them? A group of...I guess you'd call them 'former civil servants' wrestle with the atrocities that they have committed for their government. In a country where privacy, freedom and justice exist only for the people in power, they must decide whether to escape and be free, or stay and fight for redemption, but each has a price.Complete
