Book Description:
THE TRUTH ISN’T ALWAYS EASY

I’ve promised to protect those I love.
But someone is lying to me.
Will I discover the truth in time to save him?

With war looming in outer space and the Earthen government forced into hiding, the battle for ultimate world domination is only just beginning.

Having accepted her identity, Sadie sets out on a daring quest with her friends, which takes them deep into alien territory. Fraught with tension and danger, the journey is not an easy one, especially when previous adversaries become new allies and cherished friends become suspicious opponents.

As the heirs unite in a bid to restore peace to the galaxy, powerful enemies, determined to exact retribution, surround them on all sides. When hidden agendas and shocking revelations come to light, the fallout is massive.

Sadie’s love life is a tangled, messy affair. While one relationship is embraced forever, another spirals out of control, threatening to destroy everything. Determined to do the right thing, Sadie will fight hard to protect those she loves.

But there are some battles she cannot win.

Excerpt:
The sun shines high from an elevated position in the sky, beating a burning path straight for us. My feet sink into the thick, dense sand of the desert, to the point where my legs throb with the effort involved in walking. Sweat coats my skin like a new outer layer, and my clothes are practically welded to my body at this stage.
The frosty reception—from Haydn—is in direct contrast to the hot, humid climate. He continues to ignore my questions as he guides me toward the ship that has just shimmered into existence in front of us.
It’s as if we share a cloak of invisibility—this ship and I.
“Where’s Logan?” I ask for the umpteenth time, channeling more patience than I ordinarily possess.
Haydn’s response is to tighten his grasp on my arm and clamp his lips shut. I inwardly sigh as I glance around me. Neve is escorting Izzy on my left, and Rylan is guiding a cuffed Axton in front of us. Every so often, Ax peeks over his shoulder at me, a stern frown creasing his forehead.
I’m as confused as he is. I don’t understand why I’m being treated like a common criminal, because the three Saven—whom I thought were my friends—are refusing to talk. “Please, Haydn. Where is he? Is he okay?” My breath huffs out in exasperated spurts at the unrelenting chilly silence.
“Walk ahead of me,” he instructs as we approach the open mouth of the craft. It’s the first time he has spoken since the ominous “Make one false move and I’ll shoot” comment he threw at me when the three Saven first appeared here. Wherever here is, because I’ve no clue how I managed to teleport us safely from Torc or where we landed.
Ax and Izzy are ascending the walkway into the belly of the ship, and I trail behind them. A welcome, familiar face is waiting to greet me at the top of the steps. Fern leans against the railing, her usual sunny features obscured behind a mantle of worry. Spotting me, she brightens for a split second until she takes in my transparent prisoner status.
She skips toward us with purpose. “What the hell?” Piercing Haydn with a murderous glare, she deposits her hands on her slim hips.
“Don’t. Interfere.” He growls out a warning as he pushes past her, hauling me along for the ride.
I shrug my shoulders as I eyeball my friend. “Don’t ask me for an explanation. No one is even speaking to me.”
“This is completely ridiculous, and totally unnecessary,” Fern yells as she stalks behind us like a miniature tornado.
“Babe,” Rylan says, stalling on the steps above us. “Let’s get to the cabin and we’ll clear everything up.”
Haydn snorts and shakes his head. I deliberately impale him with my penetrating gaze, willing him to look at me so he can absorb the full glare of my frustration. But he’s as stubborn as ever, and he pretends not to feel my eyes burning a hole through the side of his skull. As I continue to stare at him—noting the ashen pallor of his skin and how his once shorn hair has grown out, now curling and twisting around his ears and over his neck—I wonder if I’ve ever really known him at all. Or if he has ever truly known me.
Because if he did, he would know not to fear me. That there’s no need to treat me like this.

THE TRUTH HURTS

My mother was right to fear me.
I’m an abomination.
And the world should be very afraid.

Sadie has been kidnapped by the Tor, the vindictive alien race who destroyed Thalassic City. As her past, present, and future collides, her worst nightmare looks set to become her shocking new reality.

A deliberate pawn in leader Griselda’s vengeful game, Sadie is horrified to learn the truth about her heritage and the destiny that’s already been mapped out for her. Refusing to cooperate, she risks paying the ultimate price for her defiance.

Love for Logan is her only motivation to stay alive. Saving him is the only thing that matters—the fate of the world depends upon it. While he may never forgive her, she’s determined to protect him. Until her dying breath.

Excerpt:
I didn’t realize it was possible to smell fear. To taste it. To ingest it like a tangible substance. But it is. I smell it now. On my clothes. In my hair. Seeping skin deep. I taste its pungent sharpness as it fills my mouth and slides down my throat.
My entire body trembles in my alien captor’s arms as we languish in some alternate realm, traveling through space and time. Muscular arms entrap me at the waist as he holds me firmly against him. It’s just as well, because my limbs are boneless, my body as fluffy as a wispy cloud. He whispers something in my ear, but I can’t hear over the alarm bells blaring like sirens in my head.
A blast of biting cold air whips my hair off my face, streaming behind me like a flag flapping in the wind. The alien splutters, and his hold loosens a smidge. The skin on my face wobbles like Jell-O, and my nose is frozen stiff and about ready to drop off.
Suddenly, I’m free falling, as if I’m weightless and plummeting, down, down, down, dropping father and farther until I land on something solid with a resounding thud.
I’m crashing about, stumbling like a drunkard, as the alien struggles to keep me in his grasp. My bones continue to shudder as my feet stabilize. Slowly, cautiously, I open my eyes. Accosted by a sudden blinding light, I snap them closed again, swaying against the boy. Piercing screams break through the haze of disorientation. I slowly blink my eyes open and focus my vision.
“Escort her to the Med Bay immediately,” a horribly familiar voice says. Glancing sideways, I watch Griselda hand the injured alien girl to a strangely attired guard ascending the steps in front of us. He’s encased in a silver and black armored shell suit, a mask obscuring his face.
The girl is doubled over, clutching her torso, writhing in pain. Lifting her head, she fixes me with a toxic look. Not that I can blame her for that. Burned, charred skin cloaks the right-hand side of her face, and I wince. Her clothing hangs in tatters across her upper torso, exposing a scorched trail of blackened, blistering skin. Acid churns in my stomach. I did that to her, and I’m not proud. But she was going to kill Logan, and I’d do it all over again if it meant keeping him safe.
