Star-Crossed Captive:
Blueshift Book One

​

Sworn enemies from birth, one of them heals and the other kills. 


In a future where our solar system’s resources are scarce and the struggle for power never-ending, Nia, a trauma surgeon from the ruling class of the CORE, finds herself on the front lines against the ruthless Tellusians. When her deep-space medical station is attacked, she’s taken hostage by Mace, a warrior who knows nothing but battle. Determined to escape CORE territory, he plunges her into Tellusian-controlled space.


Far from home, Nia’s survival begins with uncovering the truth behind the lies she’s been fed. But her growing attraction to the man who took her captive is an obstacle she never expected, his need to protect her a distraction she can’t afford. As she navigates the complexities of a culture far removed from her own, her captor may turn out to be her only ally.


Can she learn to trust the enemy amidst the chaos of war? Or will their opposing loyalties tear them apart?

Star-Born Anomaly:
Blueshift Book Two

​

She’s an anomaly and doesn’t even know it. 


Researcher Wynn Lambdin works alone at her outpost with only the disturbing memories of her colleague’s death to keep her company. . While a superstorm brewing on the horizon keeps her isolated, a stranger approaches on foot without a UV suit. That recklessness is certain to cause a slow and painful death—or at least it should. By morning, the man is healed.


That can only mean one thing.


He's a Calypson, one of the mysterious residents of Sector Ten known for transforming humans into husks of their former selves—a fate that horrifies Wynn and the rest of Earth’s solar system. But he turns out to be nothing like she would expect: a curious soul with a tendency for the literal. Inexplicably drawn to him, their truce is shattered when the eye of the storm brings another deadly stranger to her doorstep, and she becomes trapped between two opposing forces.

 
Without knowing who to trust, unravelling the secrets of her past will force Wynn to navigate a dangerous game of survival.

Star-Cursed Odyssey:
Blueshift Prequel

​

What really happened to the crew of the Calypso


Chief Science Officer Briar Galloway has dedicated her life to the Calypso’s deep space mission: to terraform a barren moon in a distant solar system, planting the seeds of a new Earth. She can’t afford any distractions, and that includes Colonel Heath Wiseman, the ship's second-in-command—even if her love-hate relationship with him has evolved into more over the course of the journey. 


When the ship arrives at their final destination, they find the moon is nothing like it should be. And after an expedition to the moon’s surface, the crew of the Calypso appears to be evolving too, blurring the lines between science and the supernatural. As tensions rise, Briar and Heath will need to put their trust in each other and their growing bond to help them solve the mystery, or the crew of the Calypso could lose their humanity forever.
