A stranger from the snow.
A warning from the future.
A mother’s fight to rewrite it all.

For Kelly McCormick, trying to balance single motherhood and a never-ending to-do list, is a constant battle. Every time she seems to inch ahead, some new emergency jumps up to knock her back. But she’s making it work . . . most of the time.

Less than a week before Christmas, she’s setting out to pack up the cabin of her closest friend with her two teenage sons in tow. Although it’s not a vacation, Kelly is hoping that maybe they’ll have one more magical memory there before the cabin is sold.

But with one son making it clear he doesn’t want to be there and Kelly feeling guilty about all she can’t do for both of them, that’s looking increasingly unlikely.

And that was before they found the man unconscious in the snow.

Events shift from difficult to downright life threatening in short order. This strange man has a world of trouble on his heels, trouble that comes with gunfire.

A simple good deed has turned deadly. But soon Kelly realizes that there is so much more to this stranger’s story, hundreds of years more.

Kelly is not a superhero. She is not a spy. She’s just a normal mom caught up in something extraordinary.

Right now, though, she needs to be extraordinary too. Because if the future this man has laid out is accurate, it’s a complete nightmare.

The universe has plans for Kelly and Joe, if only it put them on the same space station at the same time.

Kelly Frank is a junior employee in Earth's diplomatic service who's sick and tired of cleaning up after human tourists behaving badly. Joe McAllister is a reluctant mercenary who's looking for a way out and family-friendly place to start a business and raise an orphaned boy. Will the choices they make in the next few months shape the rest of their lives, or is free will just an illusion in a galaxy managed by ancient artificial intelligence? Destiny: Union Station takes place two years before the start of the nineteen book EarthCent Ambassador series.

On a cold autumn night, twelve-year-old Remi Cobb makes a startling discovery—a mysterious object floating on the pond in her backyard. With no idea where it came from, or how it got there, Remi is compelled to unravel its secrets. Her quest for answers takes her on a perilous journey across realities, where she finds a crumbling world—and the dark forces behind its ruin. Here she learns the truth about her connection with the strange object, and of those that will stop at nothing to destroy them both. But even if she can find a way to survive, can she find a way home?
