Earth (The Invasion Trilogy #1) Earth is being invaded. There was no warning and no time to stage any kind of defence. Instead countries started to go silent. They were no longer reachable and no one knew what was happening. So when Canada went dark; everyone knew America would be next. My name is Matilda, but everyone calls me Mattie. I was at college in Oregon when the attack began. By the time Canada went quiet, we’d had enough. So two of my friends and I decided to join the fight in Vancouver and find out what was really happening. That is when everything changed. What we found was death, destruction and machines that were slaughtering humans. There would be no escape for us; no place to go where the machines couldn't reach us. I had no future, but then I met him. My name is Marduke and I’m part of the reason Earth is being invaded. I’m from a different planet and even though I look human, I’m not. But when Earth was invaded, I began running from my family and running for my life. Then she saved me. She made me feel something I’d never felt before. She saved my life and opened my heart to the possibility of love, she changed me forever. What are the chances of finding your true love right when the world is ending? What kind of cruel fate places them together under those circumstances? What is she supposed to do when he tells her he is not from Earth? When she finds out that he is one of the invaders? What does she do when she finds out everything she thought she knew was wrong? What does he do when he has to make a choice between protecting her and saving himself?

I was taken and left for dead on a planet far from Earth. My new nightmare is called Roth. I have only Hank for an ally here and a burning rage that builds higher with each passing day. But we have a plan. One that will hopefully give humans back the Earth. One that will ensure I get revenge for what was taken from me. I will stop at nothing to get Earth back. I am willing to die for this. I made a mistake. I sent Mattie away from Earth and now she is in more danger than she ever was there. The threat to her life doesn't just come from my people, but from humans as well. I have to find her. She needs to know there is more at risk than just her life. She carries a secret, one that would lead to our deaths if anyone found out. If we want a future together, then we need to escape Roth and leave the war and everyone behind. What happens when their plan begins to fail? What will they do when a new threat presents itself, one more dangerous than anything they have ever faced before? Will Mattie be able to survive the loss she is forced to endure? Will Marduke be able to protect her from not only his people and hers, but also from herself? Is there still a way to save Earth?
