The Onepian Chronicles 4: The Last Prince of Onepus

Following six years after the events of The RR5 and Co-Piloting the RR5 comes Annia's own adventure. It's one she'll have to share with an old friend–Prince Harper of Onepus!

Annia has spent years trying to get over her childhood crush. So when he asks her to take on a special mission with his task force, the answer is obvious—yes.

Harper’s got one thing on his mind: taking down the man who is threatening all life on Onepus. But when Annia agrees to help him, suddenly that makes two things. And he’s not sure which is more dangerous.

All she has to do is date a certain Mr. Highmore and get some information from him. But things get complicated the closer to she gets to him…and the closer she gets to Harper.

With the clock ticking, Annia must discover Highmore’s secret in time to save Onepus. But will she lose her most cherished treasure in the process?

Fun fact about this book: unlike a lot of the other books you've seen me publish, this one took me years to write! It took so long, in fact, that I wrote the next three books in the series while I was still struggling to piece this one together.

It wasn't that I didn't like it. It wasn't even that I didn't know what would happen. I think I was just trying to figure out how to help Annia navigate the difficult task of dating a bad guy while falling in love with a prince. But in the end, I think this is one of my favourites of the whole series. So I hope you love it as much as I love the end product.

The Last Prince of Onepus is currently on pre-order (for ebook) and set for release on May 12, 2020. If you want to read about Annia's adventure, find it here!

The Onepian Chronicles 3: Co-Piloting the RR5

The third book in the Onepian Chronicles is a companion to The RR5. It tells the story of Rahli and Cammer's adventure, but from Cam's perspective.

Cammer has never been bothered by living in his brother Rahli's shadow, so he easily agrees to go on a cross-galaxy trip he'd rather have nothing to do with.

But when they meet two sisters running away from the man who held them captive for years, Cam's passive nature is tested. Rahli and Jani may not get along, but that doesn't keep Cam and Sapphi from their instant attraction.

When Cam is presented with the opportunity to stop the trafficker who so cruelly took Jani and Sapphi long ago, he can't refuse. Even if it's the scariest thing he's ever had to do.

Cam will need a courage he's never had before to fight the bad guys. But if they succeed, will he have to let go of the one person he loves the most?

Fun fact about this book: It was originally an advent calendar that I gifted, one day at a time, to my BFF and alpha reader. Hence why there are 24 chapters. I really just wanted to show the story in a new light, the light of a more reluctant hero. But one who was smart, brave, and yes, romantic. 

I hope you loved this story as much as I loved writing it! Co-Piloting the RR5 is available in ebook, paperback and on Kindle Unlimited. If you want to read about Cam's adventure, find it here!

The Onepian Chronicles 2: The RR5

Next up in The Onepian Chronicles is The RR5. 8 years after the events of Quest for Onepus, 21-year-old Rahli is ready for his own adventure. Except...not alone. With his brother Cammer in tow, he sets off for Galindor.

Though he's no stranger to beautiful women, Rahli wasn't expecting to meet any on his journey. Especially not two sisters running away from some bad men who had held them captive. Now he has a choice to make–leave them behind or take them with him?

While Cammer and Sapphi form an almost instant bond, Rahli and Jani butt heads at every turn. But as the story behind the women's enslavement and escape deepens, Jani and Rahli find themselves drawing closer together.

With his heart on the line, Rahli now faces an even tougher decision–end the tyranny of a belligerent trafficker or stay out of harm's way. And what will become of Jani if he fails?

Fun fact about this book: I really didn't know what was going to happen with Rahli and Jani as I was writing it. Sometimes they got along and other times...not so much. But they slowly discovered they had way more in common than they originally thought and...well, I can't say what happens with that!

The RR5 is now available on Amazon in ebook, paperback, and Kindle Unlimited. If you love watching two people step out of their comfort zones and learn how to trust each other–not to mention some serious butt-kicking in the process–this might just be the book for you!

The Onepian Chronicles 1: Quest for Onepus

Kicking off The Onepian Chronicles is Quest for Onepus. Oh, this sweet and wonderful story of two people whose lives will change forever once they meet. Is it fate or coincidence? Doesn't really matter when love is involved...

Traveling alone on his spaceship, Larson doesn’t expect to have to rescue a beautiful pilot out of the sky. Unbeknownst to him, Tawni is the princess of the wealthy planet Onepus.

Generous-hearted Tawni has been running supplies to Semerde—a microplanet full of orphans and desperate for resources and caretakers—when her cruiser breaks down. Unbeknownst to her, that's where Larson grew up and where he swore he'd never go back to.

Larson agrees to drop her on the closest planet, but on their way, they meet the Rysons, a sweet family having problems with their ship. Meanwhile, Tawni and Larson secretly struggle over their growing attraction for each other.

When Larson and Tawni discover the truth behind their identities, will they be able to overcome their differences and let their love blossom? What will happen to Semerde?

Fun fact about this book: I actually wrote this around 12 years ago. I had meant to write a short story, maybe a 7,000 word thing about a guy who learns how to love. What I actually wrote was a 25,000 word novella that started an 8-book series! After having spent many years writing the series (and other books), getting better at writing, and actually publishing books, I decided to come back to this one. It needed a major facelift for sure, but I was happy to give Larson and Tawni the story they deserved. 

I hope you love this story as much as I loved writing it. The whole series is very close to my heart, but there's something about this one, this very first story I ever conceived of. I also just love Larson and Tawni's personalities. They're so different from each other, but isn't variety the spice of life? After all, you'd never eat a cherry pie without the cherry filling, right?

Introducing the Onepian Chronicles!

The Onepian Chronicles is set 300 years into the future, in a time when humans have colonized other Earth-like planets, yet they are the same Terrans they've always been. Still looking out for their best interests, being driven by hope, greed, loss, and love.

While some things–like travelling between planets–have become easier, others are a struggle. Some humans are evil. But there are still those who value honesty, trust, integrity, and true love above all else.

These are the stories of people who chose to let love guide them through the brightest–and darkest–times of their lives.
