Genre:
SciFi
Release date: August 11,
2013
Seven billion people on
Earth go about their daily lives, and no one is prepared when a global EMP slows
the world to a crawl. With all our technology incapacitated, everything changes.
Within days alien soldiers line the streets, and life will never be the same.
Rachael struggles to adapt to the new order, doing her best to keep herself and
her cat alive.
On a ship far above the
planet surface, Peter just got his new Earth name, and can’t even remember his
identity from the last world he visited. It’s another day on the job, one more
world on a never-ending list. That is, until Rachael bumps into him, dropping
exotic objects all around his feet. His culture taught him females should be
obeyed and protected, but he never had an urge to leave himself at a woman’s
mercy until now.
Rachael’s neighbor Ryan
hounds her to join a brewing resistance movement and make a stand against the
newcomers. She still befriends Peter, enthralled by his enigmatic personality
and hypnotic golden eyes. Would falling in love with an alien be treason against
humanity? When the rebellion gains momentum and open conflict with the newcomers
is a fact, Rachael’s personal insurrection might be her doom, or bring salvation
to us all.
Author
Bio:
Born in Sweden in the early
1970's, Maria showed a large interest for books at an early age. Even before she
was able to read or write, she made her mom staple papers together into booklets
she filled with drawings of suns and planets. She proudly declared them, "The
Sun Book." They were all about the sun. She also claimed, to her mother's
horror, that her being on Earth was a big mistake and that her alien family
would come and bring her home at any moment. This never happened, but both the
interest in space and the passion for bookmaking stayed with
her.
As an adult Maria's
creativity got an outlet through playing bass in a number of rock bands, and
through writing technical manuals and making web pages for various companies and
organizations. She did write drafts for a few novels, but the storytelling muse
was mostly satisfied through role playing online on Myspace. It was here, while
writing stories together with people from around the globe, she stumbled onto
Mike. They started talking out of character, and she moved over to Florida to
him late 2008. Today the two are married and live in the Tampa Bay area with
three rescue dogs.
Besides writing and playing
bass, Maria enjoys driving off-road, archery, and
Tameshigiri.
