Astronaut Stories

Mark Hunter never expected a stray black cat to change his life. Struggling to survive, buried beneath debt, and haunted by the loss of his parents, Mark's future seems all but decided-until a mysterious space program offers him a chance to escape everything. Selected to train as an astronaut, he forms an unlikely bond with Serena Hayes as they endure the most demanding mission of their lives. But beyond the stars, a disaster is waiting. One day, Mark wakes alone in a frozen wasteland with no memory of how he got there. His spacecraft lies shattered beneath the snow, his oxygen is running out, and somewhere beneath the ice is the truth behind the mission that changed everything. A story of hope, friendship, sacrifice, survival, and discovering what it truly means to keep moving forward-even when the universe is against you.

After an incident on her spatial trip, Siena Gianessi finis herself on Erid, sixteen light-years away from Earth. Not only does she discover a whole new planet but she also meets Doctor Captain Ryland Grace, the savior of humanity. She always imagined him tall and mysterious, not awkward and talkative. Waiting for her spaceship to get fixed, she has no other choice than to live with the only other human on Erid. And maybe it's not that bad.
