Autumn... Earth is a mess, wrecked by the excesses of the generations that came before me, but we've been given a second chance... New Earth! Our new home, whether you want it or not. Every newborn is assigned a number and when you reach it, you're going to be shoved into a tiny "pod" and launched into space. Great, if you don't mind being ripped away from everything you've ever known, including friends and family! Which I do, but what choice am I given? None, is the answer. So I'm "lucky". I get to wait until I'm eighteen to go. Except when I do, something goes wrong. So damn wrong! My pod doesn't make it to New Earth, not even close. I end up on an alien planet, in the hands of a warlike race, that doesn't like humans. It only gets worse, and as I'm sure I'm about to be killed, he rescues me! Blue skin, strong shoulders, long black hair and huge black eyes that go on and on. He's alien and I hate to admit it but sexy as hell.... I'm in for something, the only question is what? Olven... Humans are the cockroaches of the universe. Spreading everywhere with no concern for those they displace, no respect, and an attitude of being the only intelligent creatures in existence. Arrogant, full of themselves, an infestation that the galaxy is better off without! Or so I always thought, until I met her... Autumn is beautiful. Beautiful in a take my breath away kind of way. She's nothing like I've been taught to believe humans are. She isn't full of herself or arrogant. She's kind and sweet and she's working her way into my heart in a way that I'm totally unprepared to handle... She's bringing change, ready or not, and I don't think my people are ready for her any more than I am. One way or another, I'm going to make her mine!
