Maddox by Bethany Shaw

The world is ending and I’m all alone.

Stay here. I’ll be right back.
Those are the last words my brother said before he left three days ago. I haven’t heard from him since. He wouldn’t abandon me, which means something happened to him. The power and phones are out. My food and water supply are getting low. I can hear the fighting and gun shots throughout the day and night. They are getting closer to my house. Aliens have invaded our planet, but it’s our own citizens I’m most afraid of. I don’t think they know I’m here. Yet. But my luck is about to run out. I can hear them coming. I don’t know if I’ll be able to fight them off. Born blind, I rely on my other senses and seeing-eye dog. Just when I think all is lost, a stranger steps in and saves the day. Maddox seems like a good guy. His voice is sexy as sin. But with all the craziness going on in the world, how can I trust him? Especially when I can tell he is hiding something from me.

Earth is the last place I want to be. I should be on Delphi, protecting my home world from the Imanji threat. These humans would rather fight each other than band together against the aliens ravaging their world. More Imanji are on the way, and it’s my job to help stop them. First, we got to get the humans to stop killing each other. I’d be happy to leave this primitive species to their fate until I meet her. Finleigh has spirit. She makes me think maybe there might be hope for humans after all. The more time I spend with her, the more I realize she is my mate. Our time is limited. Humans and aliens are closing in on our location. She doesn’t know I’m an alien or the captain of a ship. But she’s about to find out.
