In a dystopian future, a disease which turns people into monsters is spreading. The people infected have talons, scabs all over the body, fiery red eyes and most importantly, an uncontrollable desire to feed on human flesh. Not much is known about it. There is no cure for that disease. The only way to be safe is to avoid any contact with people affected by it. Even the causes are not known.
Nora Kemp is a 16-year old who returns from a trip to England. As soon as she arrives in the city, she and her friends are informed about the disease. Nora and her friends plan to hide in a safe place till the cure is found.
That is when a group of people arrive from Mars, claiming to know everything about that disease. Who are they? Can they be trusted? Will they save the unaffected people? Will they help humanity escape to a safer place? If so, under what conditions will they offer their help?

Star Kissed
When Mandy loses her job, she thinks she’s hit rock bottom – until her plane is swallowed by a strange storm that sends her and everyone else on board 10,000 years into the future. At first, she thinks the scary world is nothing more than a bad dream. The war-torn Earth is unrecognizable. Black fog blocks the sun, and the oceans are dry. Even worse: the planet is inhabited by half-human, half-alien creatures dying from a mysterious disease. Horrified at the thought of spending her life here, she clings to the knowledge that there’s one man who can open the star gate to send her home. As the Naki prince who controls the star gate, Akkadi gets first choice of any human female that makes her way through the star gate. Only by breeding with purebred humans from the past can his race hope to remain immune to the disease and hopefully, develop an eventual cure. With shrinking resources and a raging battle for the human planet, dutiful, commanding Akkadi is less than thrilled at the idea of trying to figure out Mandy, a woman he views as wild with neither discipline nor respect for someone in his position. He’s ready to write her off, when she offers him something too tempting to resist: her body for the chance to convince him by any means possible to send her home. Neither intends for the arrangement to be permanent or to fall for the other. Only when Mandy learns Akkadi’s secret and walks away does he realize he’ll do whatever it takes to keep her – even if it means losing his war.Complete
OBLITERATE- The Ring of fire
It's the end. Obliteration. It came out obvious with Martians starting to act like jerks, but what Destiny did not know was that she was involved in stopping it and causing it. Talk about double acting. There were other things she did not know before she laid foot on the school with the rickety old gate. She didn't know everything about her life was a big, fat lie. She didn't know her parents were criminals. She didn't know that her planet was crawling with tomato addicts. At least one. Most of all, she didn't know that she was going to be leaving the school because of a cannibal attack. Now, she and her sister have to set off 'into the goddamned wilderness' with the most annoying, charming blond upstart, a peppermint addicted Mars Man who's absolutely legit and a red-headed girl. But things get way more worse when her sister gets kidnapped by the Martians. With dozens of people dead and her own life in danger, will she possibly choose to take a risk with a problem involving her known family and two separate planets?Complete
