Aurora's life has taught her one thing for certain: the other shoe always drops. The first time was when she was sixteen–sure, she cheated death, but it came with strange new habits that aren't her own and terrible coping strategies.
So when Ronan comes crashing into her life, a sexy, sarcastic, shamelessly flirtatious dream of a man wrapped in a leather jacket–she holds her breath. Yet, as he continues to prove to her that he is utterly devoted, an obsession that feels too deep to be an illusion, she softens and begins to accept that maybe good things really can just happen.
Then the ships arrive.
A ruthless species as old as the stars themselves have carved sound into a weapon and descended upon the earth. They haven't just arrived, however, they've returned. Through their invasion, Aurora learns three things for certain:
First, the other shoe always drops.
Second, the man she loves isn't who he says he is.
Third, and most importantly, this has happened before.
Now, trapped in an ancient game by a god that is hellbent on making her forget she was ever playing, Aurora is determined to win this time.
They say the universe will send you the same lesson over and over until you learn it, but what if that lesson hunts you?
“I've been searching for you for so long.”
THE STARSEED is the first installment in the Vicious Echoes series—a cosmic expansion of the Scorpion and the Frog fable. By combining real starseed community lore, conspiracy theories, and a magic system that just might actually be science, this series explores an alternative reality to the one we've been taught to believe.
It is a warning for the consequences of transhumanism and AI worship, explores the spiritual role of physical death in a dualistic universe, and above all else, an epic journey through love, betrayal, and addiction.
It's a little bit SciFi, a little bit fantasy, and a whole lot of romance.
And a little monster spice, of course.
