Turing Test
In the year 2150, emotions are a forgotten language. Feelings, outlawed. Humanity, reduced to an unfeeling, cold existence under the iron rule of The Regimen. But deep in the monochrome labyrinth of this dystopian world, a glitch emerges in the matrix of perfection. Cora, a brilliant government engineer responsible for maintaining the emotion-suppressing technology, experiences an unexpected malfunction. Suddenly, she is overwhelmed by a wave of foreign sensations - emotions. An all-consuming vortex of joy, fear, anger, and a deep-seated love for her fellow engineer, Eli. In a world stripped of color, Eli is an enigma. A member of a burgeoning underground rebellion, he hides a powerful secret - a genetic mutation that makes him immune to emotion suppressants. Eli has known the pain and pleasure of feelings all his life. Now, he becomes Cora's compass in her chaotic new reality, guiding her through the wild storm of emotions and introducing her to a hidden world fighting for emotional freedom. Cora and Eli are drawn together by a bond neither can explain, a shared emotional journey that stands in quiet defiance against The Regimen's frigid rule. As Cora navigates the thrilling highs and devastating lows of human emotion, a choice looms - return to a life devoid of feelings, or risk everything for the rebellion and the tantalizing promise of emotional freedom. --------------- A 10 part seriesComplete

As the rebellion turns to full civil war, Rem tries her best to hold onto the last possession of her past life that she has, while juggling the relationships she builds on her journey. War changes every participant, and that's no exception for the Rebel princess.Complete

These Zones are managed by an all-powerful governing body called The Ascendancy, which uses a combination of surveillance, propaganda, and strict population control to maintain order.

Youth, especially those born in the years after the Ascendancy's rise to power, have begun questioning the truth about the world they live in, and their place in it. In the midst of this unrest, a group of teenagers discovers an ancient artifact, believed to be a key to unlocking the world's true history and the secrets of the Ascendancy's origins.

Ashes of the Fifth
They told us there were four factions. Four ways to live. Four roles to play. Four futures to choose. But they lied. There was a Fifth. And I am the proof. In the fractured remnants of a world rebuilt after collapse, every sixteen-year-old must face the Trials-an unyielding ceremony that assigns them to one of four factions: Ignis, Vera, Sylva, or Machina. Obey, and you live. Refuse-or fail-and you vanish. Kael Riven has never belonged. Born outside the system, raised in the shadows of Sector Nine, her only goal is to survive the Trials and disappear into obscurity. But when the test reveals something impossible-something forbidden-Kael becomes the target of a truth long buried. Labeled a threat. Hunted by the enforcers. Haunted by her past. Now, Kael must navigate a divided city, uncover the secrets of a faction that shouldn't exist, and trust the one person who might betray her heart. The Trials were supposed to choose her path. Instead, they lit the spark of a revolution.Complete
Born to Break Barriers
In a world gripped by control and fear, women have vanished from power-silenced by a mysterious virus unleashed by a ruthless organization of men known only as The Order. But one girl refuses to be erased. She remembers a time before the rules changed. Before girls were forced into hiding, before hope was outlawed. She has no name to give-not anymore. But she has a mission. And it starts with a trail of red ivy, a safehouse cloaked in shadows, and a projection of a mother she hasn't seen in months. When a charming but suspicious boy named Luke crosses her path, everything shifts. He's too kind, too helpful-and he knows more than he should. As danger closes in and a deadly tracker follows their every move, the girl must decide if she can trust the one person who might be lying to her... or if she's walking straight into a trap. Secrets will be exposed. Bonds will be broken. And in a world built to destroy her, she will uncover what she was born to do. She wasn't made to obey. She was born to break barriers.Complete
