Rim of the World

Finally rescued from the half-world, Kyber and Kelen believed the worst was behind them. They were wrong. Another ship has landed on Neverwylde, but are the visitors friend or foe? Kelen, Kyber, and the crew are hoping for a rescue, but preparing for a battle. The fight between Terrans and Seneecians has been put behind by those on the half-planet in order to survive, but the newcomers are not of the same mindset. Even if they are rescued, where will that leave Kelen and Kyber? With neither being accepted by the other's race, will they be forced to go their separate ways? Everyone is hoping for their own happily ever after once and for all. But sometimes the worst terrors don't come from alien worlds. They're closer to home.

Two species, bitter enemies, are determined to destroy each other, until they realize they need one another to survive a major catastrophe. As they race through a nebulous space anomaly in the midst of battle, the Terrans and Seneecians are blown through a wormhole to crash land on an uncharted world. A half world. A world containing the remains of a long-dead civilization. Lt. Kelen Chambliss knows she has no reason to trust the furred, humanoid creatures, but she and her crew members cannot survive without their help, and the Seneecians cannot survive without theirs. Neither can she ignore the fearsome-looking one called Kyber, with his wicked talons and piercing green eyes. As they slowly come to realize there is no escape or forthcoming rescue from the barren planet, Kelen learns there is much about the enemy she never knew. Including the fact that Kyber's formidable appearance hides a strong, brave, and caring heart.

Things have been quiet on Neverwylde, but everyone has been busy. With a new group of research scientists sent to spend the next six months on the planet, their goal is to learn and document as much as possible to classify the alien world as a 2A planet. But things never go as planned on this still wild and unknown galactic anomaly. Dox has a one-track mind, but that's normal for his kind. Being an isotype baby, he was specifically created to be highly intelligent, often found working on inventions, and rarely speaking beyond a couple words. But he's also fiercely loyal and protective, as well as sweet and innocent, with zero experience when it comes to women. They never even crossed his mind, until now. Xeno-archaeologist Dr. True Brown can't wait to get her feet on Neverwylde soil. Having researched everything there is to know of the planet so far, she's somewhat starstruck when meeting the original crew, but no amount of research could prepare her for the reality of the world, or the feelings the quirky, quiet, innocent tinkerer invokes. She didn't plan on romance while on this mission, but then again, she didn't anticipate her fellow scientists turning on them either. Politics and greed are getting in the way of science and discovery, and may push everyone off the planet for good, wiping out all of their hard work. With months turning into days, the crew scrambles to protect a world filled with endless precious resources and intelligent life. Once again the greatest enemies may not be the deadly creatures on the planet, but some of their own.
