She’s the empire’s secret weapon, but her secrets could bring down the regime. All he has to do is get out of her handcuffs and into her mind to unlock them.
When surprise alien attacks left Treska Sivekka’s body battered and her mind a blank slate, the regime that rose from the ashes gave her an identity and purpose she could believe in. Vice Hunters like Treska seek out the threats to the Union’s security. Psypaths like Micah Ariesis are her primary targets and the Union’s biggest threats. But now that she’s got him in her handcuffs and every scumbag in the star system is after them both, her target may be the only one she can trust.
The Union promised security to terrified citizens in exchange for order and obedience, but psypaths like Micah and his allies, the near-human Hathori people, became scapegoats for inexplicable devastation…and then rebels against the repressive regime. Micah has one last chance to strike at the heart of the Union that hunted his kind to near-extinction–the Huntress ready to deliver him to its deepest prison. The secrets locked in Treska’s missing memories can bring down the Union–if he can get out of her handcuffs and into her mind.
They can have anything they want…except freedom.
The children of Landfall’s powerful nobility have all the wealth and privilege of their family status, but there’s only one thing that will give them control over their own lives–the title of Scion. The only way to earn it is by carefully managing the social influence markets that rank them according to their accomplishments. At the exclusive Landfall Cultural Academy, the heirs vie to elevate their status high enough for the Cultural Trust to grant them the title and the freedom to make their own way. In this elite competition, scandal is as good as scholarship.
The noble houses of Landfall rule over the entire star system–from the overcrowded city-planet to its pastoral moons and the treacherous debris belt that prevents them from settling the outer system. But their sons and daughters only have as much personal power and freedom as their Social Capital numbers grant them. Fortunes are won and lost on the market where Probabilities Brokers wager on their every move–whether it’s wardrobes of credit-wasting designer fashion, or the scandal of their behavior.
Writing as Athena Grayson. Fun, thoughtful stories where love has power and justice matters.
Finding a Happily Ever After
Another world exists over, under, and in between the breaths we take in this one. A world where the forces of nature are given form and name…and influence over our world.
Where your second adulthood is the place you find the magic you missed out on when you were younger. Where love is sweeter, because it’s the greatest kind of magic.
