Nurse Ivy Domberg, along with the rest of the world, watched as the Magellan spacecraft launched into space for a top-secret mission to the moon. She would miss her husband while he was gone, but he’d be back before she knew it. 

No one expected those two short weeks to turn into years.

The day the spaceship disappeared, Earth was hit with a blinding light, and life hasn’t been the same since. Every female is now sterile, human and creatures alike. Insects, reptiles, fish, and birds are becoming extinct. Same for all animals as none of them are able to reproduce. Meat, eggs, and milk, as well as grain and vegetable crops, are growing scarce. It’s only a matter of time before the world’s population is completely wiped from the face of the Earth, either from starvation, old age, or both. 

During this time, Ivy refused to believe her astronaut husband Skeet was dead. But when the Magellan inexplicably returns with its crew somehow alive, is it a coincidence alien ships are spotted on the same day? Were the aliens responsible for their disappearance, as well as the chaos on Earth?

Even as a possible interstellar war looms on the horizon, Ivy’s nurse instincts kick in when she discovers a lone creature lying near a road. A creature not from Earth. A creature who appears to have just given birth. Seeing the infant, Ivy can’t ignore the alien’s plight, no matter the species. Regardless of the devastation they may have brought to the planet, a mother’s love for her baby is universal. 

And it just might save the world.

Warning! Contains a jar of eggs, a devastating loss, plant-based meat, paying in cash, fake hot chocolate, and two people whose love and resilience gives them the hope and faith they need to survive.

The Children are settling into their new lives, but unexpected expenses are piling up with the babies’ milk and diapers, and the electricity bill on the rise as the brunt of winter inundates them. Everyone is doing what they can to pitch in, working extra shifts and doing whatever it takes to keep their heads above financial waters, to the point where K8 is contemplating using her ability to split in two to do double the work. But how much longer can they keep it up?

When K8 is approached by a publisher to tell the Childrens’ story, she’s hesitant to trust the guy, but she likes the idea. She’s always loved writing, and she’s been wanting to get back into it. Plus the extra money from book sales would definitely help. But is their story worth sharing? 

Adam has been working with K8 at the diner for a while now, and his feelings for her keep growing. He’s leery of the publisher, fearing the man is someone looking to take advantage of the Childrens’ innocence, and he takes it upon himself to protect K8. As he earns her trust, he’s hoping he’ll also gain her affection.

While they may have been raised in an unrealistic environment, the Children are quickly learning how the real world works, and know some people don’t have their best interests at heart. Worse, the threat of retaliation from Docenti Labs is still real, and those people will never stop coming for them or for the valuable information they claim was stolen. 

Warning: Contains a great tipper, needing a lawyer, when you're a cook and not a housekeeper, a nine point five, leftover meatloaf, injections from hell, and one man trying to protect the woman he's come to love at the risk of his own life.

Now in the Tennessee National Guard after serving in the military, Brix Rhodes and his team are called to assist the sheriff’s department and highway patrol after a sinkhole appears at the Kentucky-Tennessee border. Since losing his wife, Samra, in a car accident four months ago, he’s been left to raise their baby girl alone, but fortunately his dad is always there to help care for her while he’s away. Brix promises to return soon from this deployment, but he discovers that’s a promise he may not be able to keep.

After another cave-in, Brix is sent down into the sinkhole to attempt a rescue, and soon finds himself being rescued by…himself. There’s another Brix Rhodes. A Brix who is similar, and yet different from himself. What’s more, his beloved Samra exists here as well. She’s not dead, but she belongs to the other Brix. Is he in a parallel universe or some alternate reality? What is happening? Is he dreaming or delusional?

He has to get back to his own world and his baby daughter, but can he survive losing Samra a second time? His questions are answered when the other Brix makes that decision for him, and puts everyone’s lives at risk.

Warning! Contains pain medication, a loose helmet, gale-force winds, grief, lying by omission, a change of clothes, and two people getting a chance to correct their past in order to have a future together.
