This romantic adventure follows the monumental journey of orphaned brother and sister, Ben and Elizabeth Robinson. They are unknowingly descended from a highly evolved race that colonised and integrated with us over 5000 years ago after fleeing from their doomed planet, Angelos.

This gentle and deeply compassionate race had evolved over the millennia to have a dreadful power over Nature, but they chose to integrate with us at the cost of diluting their bloodline and consequently reducing their longevity and powers. 5000 years later there remains only two full blooded 'Angels', Maelstrominha and Crystalita, nubile Matriarchs of their civilisation, who's pure genes are their only hope for the rejuvenation of their kind. Elizabeth and Ben are siblings of that same bloodline, a rare occurrence and essential to the Angels to achieve this continuity.

When the Angels colonised, they brought with them baggage in the form of another much darker corrupt race, the 'Shadows', who they lost control of over the centuries. The Shadows did not integrate and consequently did not dilute their powers and, as a result, the balance of power tipped their way. They became the ruling power in today's global society consisting of the oligarchs, corrupt politicians, religious leaders, zealots and terrorists.

Elizabeth and Ben get caught up in the dreadful, on-going power struggle between these two conflicting races, fighting a war for peace and harmony on the one side and ultimate global domination on the other. The adventure and enduring love stories that ensue will have you riveted!  Quote one reader who has read the whole book: "Fantastic book! Exciting and gripping, the plot takes you on a trip through various historical characters and different times! It's a real page-turner and definitely worth a read. You won't regret it and I promise that if you like fantasy adventure with romance, you won't!

The aliens came here for one thing, and one thing only.... Females. ( This story is only available through inkitt or galatea!!!) (some read events may apply) (check update chapter for more details!) Humans believed they were the only intelligent life to exist... that it was impossible for another species to evolve in a way where they could prevail in something as great as space travel. humans believed they were supposed to be the most technologically advanced species and the alpha predators... They were wrong. The Xandisians evolved in ways humans never could have imagined, they are natural-born killers with phenomenal strength and agility. Their kind never went through the same devolution as humans, they never lost their natural instincts to hunt, kill, or breed. With their limitless potential and monstrous strength, they faced few threats and could survive almost any threat that befall their species, almost. After an incurable sickness washes over the planet of xanadis, the majority of the female, young and elderly, and vulnerable population is all but wiped out, leaving a small portion of the male population to face the threat of extinction. With no choice but to look to the stars for a means to save their kind from complete annihilation, the xandisians set out to find a race compatible with their own. after many years and countless failed expeditions, they finally find a species that matches their base DNA on a planet called Earth. The only issue now is how humans will react. (Book 2 LTF series) (CAN be read as a stand alone, but not recommended for nostalgia reasons~) (ps this is UNEDITED, grammar and spelling mistakes will ensue!) (NOTE: THIS IS ITS OWN STORY NOT A CONTINUATION. SAME CHARACTERS BUT DIFFERENT PLOT.)(Last to fall au/spin-off)

With a touch of fate, a sprinkle of emotions, and bounties on their head, the two hearts found each other as they fought together on a life-altering adventure in their journey to save their people and their world. ~~ "Why are you telling us this anyway?" She asked the man from the future, as he leaned back to the shelf behind him after finishing his explanation. His emerald-colored eyes met her blue ones as he pierced through them seemingly searching far deeper than his eyes could offer. He had longed for her, every minute, every hour and day, though it was far more than he could ever comprehend. But just seeing her in front of him, alive and young, it was all payed for. "Because the last time, I couldn't save you as you died in my arms. And I'm not letting it happen again." ~~ A dark secret kept with a birth of murder, a life of façade, a leap from the future, and a love bound to break. The heaven and earth will meet and only she can hold them in between. Will it be enough?
