Alliance (Smith)

The Trivators came to bring Earth into the Alliance of Star Systems, but now they have to take control of Earth to prevent the humans from destroying it in the panicked chaos. The Trivators aren't prepared for how humans will affect their own lives, thought.

An alien warrior is supposed to forge a peace, but all he really wants... is her. We sent messages into space to find out if there could be someone out there, listening. Then six years ago, Trivators came to Earth. They wanted to bring Earth into the Alliance of Star Systems, but worldwide there was such violent panic at the unexpected visit that the Trivators were forced to take control. It's not going well. Razor is a High Chancellor for the Alliance who has been sent to finally bring order to Earth — by any means necessary. Chicago, a city torn apart by two factions, is an extremely important target to quell the chaos, and it is there in Chicago that a female warrior saves his life and disappears. Kali has devoted her life to her brother's cause. After all, Destin is the only one has Chicago's best interests at heart. Colbert just wants power, and he certainly has become a powerful enemy. It wasn't always that way. Once he was someone they trusted above all others, but that time is past, and now Kali will do whatever it takes to bring peace to their people, even if that means battling giant alien warriors who stuck their noses into Earth's business six years ago and never left. One night though, Kali sees someone who will die if she doesn't act, and then discovers mid-rescue that he's a Trivator! Razor has never failed a mission, and his reputation of ruthlessness is well earned, but for the first time in his life, he finds himself torn between duty and something he is unfamiliar with, his heart.

To wake the beast inside him...Saber fears he will never fully recover from his debilitating injury, and if he cannot protect his Amate, he knows he doesn't deserve her. She should choose a warrior, not a cripple who will need her constant help, so Saber does everything in his power to push away the delicate human he has fallen in love with. Taylor Sampson may be human, but that doesn't make her weak. She and her sisters survived four years on Earth's violent streets after the Alliance made first contact. She was a teenager then, but she is all grown up now, and she has her eye on the Trivator who captured her heart seven years ago.

Once she finishes, she plans to show Saber that he is the man she wants, stubbornness and all, but when civil war erupts, she is trapped behind enemy lines. It isn't long before Saber discovers that Taylor has been left behind, and suddenly there's no room in his life for pity, not for himself, or anyone who gets in his way.
