A sci-fi retelling of Snow White + Sleeping Beauty + genetic engineering.

Like most engineered kids, Amara can't wait to turn sixteen. Sixteen means confirmation of immunity to the aging infection that plagues mankind. And confirmation means freedom, leaving behind the quarantine of the Tower where she's lived all her life for a new life in the city -- no filtration veils required. 

But the queen has other plans. The queen is dying and needs a new heart. Daughter or not, Amara's will do. A Guardsman wants to save Amara -- but is it for love, or his own dark want?

Payne & Joie by Rose_Vincent

Joie is a failure of science. At least to her father, a once-renowned geneticist, she is. Where Joie was supposed to be tall, she is short. Where her eyes are supposed to be green, they are strange yellow-gold. Where she is supposed to be smart, she is simply... average. Joie is left trying to find meaning through her art and the consequences of being genetically altered. But when a fellow "failure" -a golden-haired boy calling himself Payne- presents evidence of others like her, Joie knows she cannot stand and wait around for her father to come back any longer. Especially when her father's actions go too far. UPDATED EVERY DAY Instagram: RoseVincentWrites

Snow by jule009

After an apocalyptic event that thrusts the world into a new ice age, Calestia - a 17-year-old girl with a strong will - must learn to survive on a land infested with gangs, guns, and distrust. ***** Nobody knows what day it is anymore. Nobody knows the month, the day of the week...and the only way to tell time is by the slight change in the color of the sky from grey to black every twenty-four hours. If a day even is twenty-four hours anymore. The planet is dead. The people are dead. Snow falls down upon piles of bodies like the ash of a volcanic eruption. Except, the snow doesn't stop. It never does. It continues to fall and fall until you wonder if it is even possible for another flake to come down and land silently in your hair. But it does. They do. There are few survivors of what the remaining have started to call the end of the world. The Apocalypse. Few who are still brave or scared of death enough to face the torture that is living. I am one of those survivors. Book One of the Snow Series Highest ranking: #3 in Sci-Fi Watty's Shortlisted

Nobody Like You by AziaElga

Yeju Hwarng no longer believes in love. After breaking up with her long-term girlfriend and watching her parents divorce over the summer, all her passion disappeared, including her passion for science that got her into her microbiology Ph.D. program. When a new roommate moves into the apartment, Yeju recognizes her as more than just a familiar face; she is an enemy that needs to be chased out of her life. Lia Choi does not need love. Her parent never gave her any, and confessing to her childhood best friend over the summer only caused a fall out. Love has proven to be both unnecessary and a liability, and all Lia needs instead is to do well in college and get into a prestigious research position in the microbiology department. Unfortunately, her research mentor turns out to be her new roommate. And she is hell bent on ruining Lia's life. Tension escalates both at home and in the lab, but the more they work together, the more they realize: they have a common goal, and they need each other to achieve that.

Princess and Trouble (girlxgirl) by plzreadme

Two girls, two different walks of life, one love story. Dakota Springson was a princess. Not an actual princess, but you know the type. Rich parents, good looks, got everything she wanted when she wanted it. Everything she did she was good at: sports, school work, music. There was nothing she couldn't do. Everyone wanted to be her. And she knew it. Alex Brown's middle name was trouble. Not really, but you know the type. Tragic backstory, criminal record and bad temper. It was the combination which screamed 'stay away' and everyone did. She did drugs, got into fights and never paid attention in class. The only reason her enrolment hadn't been terminated was because even the principal was afraid of her. The pair come from completely different walks of life. But what happens when Trouble meets the Princess? This is girlxgirl. If you don't like that kinda thing, then please don't read it.

Now, not only does she have to find her brother and find a way to sneak him over, but she must also navigate her complicated feelings for the woman responsible for their separation.
