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?
