Warlands of Song

Saige Glade is an illegal mix of two alien races forbidden from reproducing because of the children they produce. The children like her. She lives in hiding on earth, avoiding those who wish to assassinate her, and avoids--for the moment--a war that brews over her very existence. Glen Mykel is the decorated Commander of the military force tasked with capturing those like her. He is also, however, in the middle of an existential crisis including an ex wife, a young daughter, and a future he would rather not face as the promise of intergalactic war grows stronger. They meet on a mountaintop on earth as Saige is fleeing from yet another assassination attempt, and Glen is on R&R. Like magnets, they're pulled together, whether they want to or not, and the unlikely pair unite in the middle of a centuries-old war of races and governments. Saige is wanted alive by many, and dead by many more, her DNA both the key to uniting and destroying both peoples. Upon uniting, both she and Glen will have to decide whether they will save themselves, each other, or the world around them.
