Sentilia by ChristineParentBooks

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.

Marmalade Sunset by dendo_

This is a story written during the COVID lockdown. It's a world I created to escape to. I wanted to immortalize what I felt during that period of my life. There is struggle, regret, and the eventual recovery phase. Glenn is a boy with a deeply troubled past. His parents left him at an early age and he finds that even his foster home cannot provide him with the familial warmth that he desires. Thus, he isolates himself and eventually finds that he's alone again. He attends a high school in a not-so popular town in Canada and is presented with a problem when the class is scheduled to a town he is familiar with but had to leave because of a startling experience in the past. He meets a cast of characters on the way who slowly help him realize that isolation isn't the only answer in his mysterious little world.

No one ever knows the whole story... Nestled deep in the forests of the Pacific Northwest, something is emerging. Kept in absolute secrecy, it seeps into a fading town, quietly shared from person to person.

To Rachel DuValle, perpetually underestimated and dismissed by the world, magic represents a chance to become something much greater than herself.

Seven Survivors by madisonrae19

Going on a school trip abroad can be described with many juxtaposing thoughts, but should never be linked to fatalities or injury. Juniper Pearl Foxx always had a sheltered, mundane life, when a terrible tragedy occurred and left her stuck in the Amazon Rainforest with near-strangers. With her friend's dead, no food or water and death lurking at every turn, she's sure her time has come and she will die (nearly) alone. But then the boy she was sure always hated her rose to the occasion and saved her from herself, making her realise she must never stop fighting. Together, will they be able to connect the group of survivors, and escape the jungle? *completed and edited but there may still be some mistakes*

A minor issue that is resolved in the year 2157 when a renegade group of scientists develops a device that allows to jump through time.

At first I thought I'd pick something a bit out of my comfort zone (so.... NOT SciFi for once...) to expand my horizon, but when I saw a prompt about time travel I was immediately inspired. Please keep in mind, all of this is WIP! The title, cover, and some of the content might change at any time... I have an outline and I worked hard to come up with a compelling and consistent story line, but due to the nature of the story (timey whimey stuff!) I might have to revise things a few times as I write. I'm grateful for any feedback and I hope you enjoy :)

Cali doesn't quite have the perfect life even though it may seem as though she does from the materialist things she owns. Dealing with a parent who is hardly ever home and uses gifting as a way to hide it and when around using force as a mechanism to show discipline and another who is living a secret life.

Touch: Awakening by AmandaKByrne

The first touch burns. The second will change her life. In the future, humans will never see each other face to face. Technology will facilitate all interactions, from emails to spoken conversations to a hike up a tree-lined mountain. They'll rely on machines to provide them with their basic needs and favorite indulgences, and they'll never know another person's touch. This is the world Alexis is born into. A grad student slated to become impregnated in a few months' time, Lexi's been struggling with her wild and reckless thoughts. Why aren't they allowed to question the Government's decisions? What if her friend, Parker, is right, and the pill regimen they're on deadens their sense of touch? And why does her heart stop and her chest squeeze whenever she's around Drew? Drew's a dangerous man. He asks the questions she's afraid to voice and makes her think. Makes her wonder. Makes her yearn. He promises to help her find the answers, the two of them fumbling toward something they don't understand. The first touch is painful, the second one less so. Each one awakens feelings Lexi has no words for, until she craves Drew like an addict needing a fix. As they discover what the Government has kept from them all their lives, they fight to find a way to have it all - even as it threatens to destroy them forever. **** Later chapters contain situations intended for a mature audience. Consider yourself warned :)

Ask me no questions... by kullman

Danger Mason's world is suddenly full of lies. He's pretty used to hiding, being a warlock has meant being hidden from the outside world. But now his mother is missing, and his life is uprooted to go and live with his father who he's never met. Danger doesn't know who to trust, his father's family is nice enough but his father is denying being his parent. And with clues to his mother's disappearance piling up, Danger begins to suspect that there's more to things than meets the eye. It doesn't help that his father's family is a prolific set of vampire hunters, with a tendency to sympathize with their prey. Trigger/Content Warnings: Some unsettling fantasy violence, creature violence. Intense blood and gore. Language throughout. Some mention of child abuse and eating disorders which may be upsetting to some readers. Somewhat suggestive dialogue between a married couple. Be aware of your mental state and seek support as needed.

Brianna Acero and the Second One's Return by RaquelS03

One hundred years ago, war threatened the existence of humanity. One man's actions might bring it back. During WWV, battles weren't won with bombs, but with science. Specifically, with DNA. Now, a person's place in society is determined by their genetic code. If your Gift is as mundane as knowing what time it is without needing a watch, you're probably a Norm, but if it's so extraordinary that it's considered a danger to the public, congratulations, you're an Elite. Seventeen-year-old Brianna Acero doesn't fall into either category. She is the only girl in the world who has no Gift at all. When life throws her a curveball and Brianna finds herself living among the Elites, she begins to uncover layers upon layers of secrets about her own past, but there is one secret that was not meant to be unlocked. Now, there is no way of putting it back in its cage. The Second One is back, and this time he won't be so forgiving. His actions could bring about a new world war, and the end of Gifted society along with it. Only Brianna is unique enough to stop him, but will she rise to the challenge? Revenge is a dangerous game, and not everyone is ready to play it.
