Science Fiction

We’re lessers from a servant world. Nobodies. The Blades conquered Earth long ago. They were harsh but absent rulers. We kept our heads down to survive. But something’s happened. Seven of us have accidentally captivated the most important men in the empire. The elite warrior, deadly as the grim reaper, who can't stop his body from reacting to mine... The ruthless leader who keeps me close even though I'm one papercut away from unleashing chaos... The calculating prince who can seize the throne if he listens obediently to my words...

I was separated from my parents and a world where the most important thing I had to worry about was my next outfit. Everything I have ever been or will be . . . torn away abruptly as I'm thrown into what feels like never-ending chaos and confusion. Thrust upon an Alien male who I can't understand and dangers I don't comprehend. How do I cope with the reality of being alone on an alien planet where I'm not wanted?

The Doomers' island hides more treasures than anyone suspects. Secrets buried for millennia become bargaining chips for survival, impossible quests require extraordinary measures, and love forged by fate demands releasing the past to claim the future. The greatest treasure may be hidden in a vault, but its true worth can only be measured in love.

It has been seven years since the virus took everyone I loved. A part of me died that day, and since then, my life has been filled with fear. Today should be no different. But it is. I'm in his city, taunting him as he hunts me. Running from the Skull—one of Glasgow's most violent groups—should make me scared, terrified even, but all I feel is alive.

I had one mission: secure the best obstetrician on Earth to save my people's future. What I didn't expect was the firestorm of resistance, vulnerability, and desire that Dr. Parker ignited in me. As Olivia fights to retain her freedom and I grapple with the awakening of emotions I was never programmed to feel, a fragile alliance begins to form—one born of necessity but threatening to become something far more dangerous. Because in a world where humanity is evolving by design, love might be the most unpredictable force of all.

The year is 2319. The galactic war with the aliens known as the Serken had finally turned in favor of the Allied worlds for the first time in over a decade. Yet it is far from over. Lt. Commander Roy O’Hara leads his squadron of combat space fighters against the enemy’s latest Super Destroyer and is shot down over an unexplored planet. Near death, Roy is found by a beautiful healer named Katreena. Roy finds that both of their fates are intertwined in prophecy and in a secret that the planet holds, which could be the key to winning the war or further destruction.

Brynn non è nata tra gli Alaha, ma è lì che è cresciuta. Ha trascorso tutta la vita tra le onde, addestrandosi come guardia e sognando il giorno in cui avrebbe finalmente messo piede sulla terraferma per il famoso Mercato annuale con i Kenta, lo stesso popolo che ha condannato la sua comunità a vivere in mare aperto. Ma quello che doveva essere un giorno di festa si trasforma in caos quando, inaspettatamente, Brynn si scontra con un enigmatico soldato nemico dagli occhi scuri e dallo sguardo troppo intenso per essere ignorato.

Author Henry Elder came to Alta Novis to learn more about the fabled battle lord and his lady. But rather than re-tell the tales of their already well-known exploits, he wants to hear about the couple from the people who really know them.

As the Butcher of the Brumal mafia, Berga spends his days between the university and his lab, constantly caught up in one experiment or another.

Locking himself away periodically to protect himself and those around him has become second nature, that is until one mix-up with a Royal changes everything.

Ever since the world fell apart, I've been like a princess trapped in a tower, looking down at our chaotic new reality from an upstairs window and never allowed to risk the dangers outside.

Maybe I want more than a transactional relationship, but the world after Impact doesn't allow for romantic daydreams.
