Sword of Light

“Probably not,” Frey agreed. “But I sure as hell hope you have a plan to get us out.”
I shrugged and gestured toward the door, indicating we were about to find out. “We’re in a labyrinth without Ariadne’s thread.”
Frey squinted at me and asked, “How do you know about that?”
So naturally, I flipped him off, but I suddenly realized why we hadn’t met any opposition inside this building. Or perhaps it had been Havard who figured it out, but either way, it wasn’t good news for us. “We’re not only in a labyrinth, but we’ve got an entire army outside waiting to ambush us.”
“Okay,” Frey said slowly, “so what do we do?”
“The only thing we can,” Agnes answered. “We fight.”

When Bella agreed to travel to Earth to start a new life with the man she loved, she’d been promised two things: healing dead human bodies so they could live on this planet always worked, and they could have the happily ever after forbidden to them at home.
But soon after arriving on her new planet, she discovers both of those promises were lies. And the consequences for trusting the wrong people are deadly.
After six years of hiding from the company that helped her cross over, she is approached by a beautiful but mysterious stranger who offers her a different kind of promise: the chance for revenge.

By the time the first spaceship is joined by two others, Zoe reluctantly admits that Earth has been invaded, even though it’s a pretty lame invasion: the aliens look remarkably human and keep to themselves. From what humans are able to learn about them, they seem incredibly arrogant and boring anyway.
After meeting Peyton, one of Earth’s newest residents, Zoe feels an immediate attraction to him although she is reluctant to become involved with someone who isn’t even human. But she soon discovers that these aliens are far more dangerous than they’ve led everyone to believe, and the secrets they are hiding may signal the destruction of her entire planet.

But Nic's universe, for years centered around Celia, will be tested, and he’ll discover just how far he’s willing to go to protect them both.
