One day the young Deranged meets a fellow young Compos Mentis on the air train, Subject #1111. The Deranged and Compos Mentis are forbidden to establish any form of a relationship yet that doesn't stop the two from interacting with one another. Through a friendship that wasn't expected to occur the two learn secrets about the world they've become accustomed to and believe they must do something to balance out the two kinds before it's too late. The rise of a rebellion is created. Are the two going to be able to pull it off or will they be destroyed for the corruption they cause, and absurd plans that will change the world they once knew? Their lives or their beliefs.

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.

how far would you go . . . for someone you love? ♔ Levi steps forward, placing himself between me and Jack. Like he's protecting me from him. But I don't need protecting, certainly not from Jack. "Who do you think you are, dude?" Levi spits, getting in Jack's face. "Look, Scarlett was just helping me out with a proj-" "I'm not your dude," Jack bites, and I want to tear my hair out of my head. This is going downhill very fast. Jack turns to me. "Scar, we need to talk," he says lowly. Then loud enough for Levi to hear, "So can you please get this kid to leave." "Hey, you don't get to come in here and start ordering her around," Levi says harshly. "You don't control her." "And you think that you do?" Jack spits. ♔ When Scarlett moved off to college, she hoped to start anew and find her way in this world alone. Two problems. One: her older brother goes to the same college, and it seems like he's everywhere, keeping her from doing everything she hoped to do as a college freshman. Two: her brother's devastatingly handsome best friend also seems hell-bent on ruining her college experience . . . but in a different way. Their paths keep crossing, and Scarlett is reminded of the powerful attraction that they've both ignored for far too long. Not to mention, a new face begins to occupy everyday Scarlett's thoughts. When Scarlett is paired with an allusive, darkly handsome stranger for a film project, her world begins to open in ways she never thought possible. But as his mystery unravels into dark secrets, she wonders if she's falling a bit too hard. Before long, Scarlett is forced to realize that balancing the hearts of two boys at once just might result in the breaking of her own.

Scarlett & Gianmarco are farther from traditional lovers than one galaxy is to the next. They are Travellers - Celestial beings of unimaginable power, thrust into a battle for the survival of their very universe they'd neither planned for, or intended. With that: the most powerful force in the known universe threatens to bring them closer together against their will, or separate them to their detriment: an unspeakable love that blooms beneath them both, their strengths of will denied. Scarlett, a strong-willed, argumentative FIBA world-championship Women's Basketball athlete, and Gianmarco - a high-profile private attorney, young, upright, and desperately hunting for the connections that will allow him the opportunity to start his own practice: under normal circumstances: these two age-gapped interests would never cross paths any way except accidentally. However, when Marco is hired as star-attorney of Ronel Sorgic - the enigmatic multi-millionaire genius Russian muralist hired to promote the Women's FIBA team for this year's championship: their paths are inextricably collided. What they didn't know is just exactly how life-changing their unanticipated meeting would become. Overwhelmed by a love they never knew could be, an even deeper hatred incapable of definition, a burning desire for distance, but an even more powerful pull to love and lust, and aligned with a cosmic purpose neither of them are qualified of bearing alone: Will they find the call of home, of one's soil, inseparable or the call of one's purpose inescapable?
