This Week’s New Releases

Title: Through the Gate
Series: Atlantis University Book 1
Release Date: 05/11/2026

Earth’s destruction was just the beginning.

Rejected by the Marine recruiters, Jackson Bach thought his military dreams were over.

The dimensional recruiters had other plans.

Drafted into Atlantis University’s elite tactical program, this human operative discovers his unique neural signature triggers Memory Echoes—classified visions of Earth’s final transmissions. Plasma-scorched cities. Desperate evacuation orders. Command structures collapsing in real-time.

The brass calls it combat instability. Jackson calls it evidence.

Partnered with Zaena, a felinoid tactical specialist, Jackson infiltrates restricted archives. Ancient military logs reveal panicked distress signals, ignored strategic assessments, one classified reality: Atlantis Command abandoned Earth’s defense grid.

Billions died while dimensional gates sealed shut.

Academy Command wants Jackson terminated. His squad leader risks court-martial protecting him. Memory Echoes intensify during combat simulations, revealing exactly who gave the stand-down orders.

Dimensional strike teams hunt him through campus sectors. Academy leadership demands his immediate discharge.

Jackson faces a tactical nightmare: expose the cover-up and lose his squad, his mentor, his only shot at belonging to something greater than himself.

Stay silent, let humanity’s genocide remain classified forever.

Will Jackson’s warrior instincts overcome impossible odds? Can one soldier’s truth shatter an empire’s perfect lie?

For readers who crave military precision with cosmic stakes. Step into a pulse-charged sci-fi fantasy where ancient secrets meet high-tech sorcery, and survival is the first test.

Title: Mercenaries
Series: Animus Book 13
Release Date: 05/12/2026

The Shatter Belt doesn’t forgive mistakes.

Fresh from the Academy, Kaiden Jericho has a ship, a team, and a reputation to build.

The Belt offers opportunities for those desperate enough. Mercenary work. Salvage runs. Contracts that don’t ask questions.

The ancient warzone holds more than wreckage.

Asiton ships still pulse with power two centuries after the war ended. Signals broadcast from vessels that should be dead. Kaiden’s AI partner Chief is hearing things he was never designed to hear—patterns older than the war itself, buried in technology that recognizes him.

When a rescue mission goes sideways in a dying derelict, Kaiden’s team uncovers classified research the Asitons tried to hide. Research that three separate organizations have been watching. Research that suggests the war’s official history is a lie.

The Wraith Syndicate controls the salvage routes. Trinity Security wants the past contained. And a mysterious professor is paying them to breach a station that’s been dark for two hundred years.

Everyone has secrets in the Belt. Some of them are two centuries old.

Will Kaiden’s team survive long enough to learn what the Asitons were really running from? Or will the Belt claim them like it claims everyone who digs too deep?

Join Kaiden’s crew—if you’re brave enough to face what the Asitons left behind.

Title: Night Circuit
Series: Intensity Book 2
Release Date: 05/13/2026

Sophie Mori reads every room. This one wants her dead.

She has managed every scandal, breakdown, and disaster in entertainment for nine years. Ross Michaels—recovering three floors above her with cracked ribs and eyes that miss nothing—is the one complication she cannot manage away. He knows the professional distance is armor. He trusts her with his life and the quiet certainty that whatever she’s walking into, she’ll walk in first.

In Monaco, with an ancient council threatening Sophie’s life and Vale arriving to make everything more complicated and more right, the slow burn that’s been building since Vegas finally combusts.

What ignites between Sophie, Ross, and Vale is fierce, addictive, and nothing nine years of crisis management prepared her for.

She built a career knowing what everyone in the room wanted. She never accounted for wanting something herself.

Will Sophie finally choose the life she’s been protecting herself from? Or will the woman who managed every crisis but her own lose everything before she ever lets herself have it?

Pick up Night Circuit—the slow burn that finally, spectacularly, breaks open in Monaco.

Title: Building 
Series: Hearts of Ember Book 4
Release Date: 05/15/2026

Love doesn’t end at the edge of the world.

For nearly a year, Serenya has governed with her grief at arm’s length. She is a queen. Queens manage. They do not cry in the corridors. They do not press their hands against black memorial stone at dusk, searching for the warmth of a man on the other side of an impossible wall.

Kaelen sealed the dimensional wound with his own consciousness. He watches everything she refuses to let break, holds the crack closed while the months stack up, and the seal slowly starts to give. The hairline fracture in the Scar Garden stone is the first sign he cannot hold on forever.

The family they have built in the wreckage of the transformation discovers there is a path. A way through the between-space. A way to pull him home before the wound swallows him whole.

Will love prove powerful enough to cross a wound in the world itself, or will the price of bringing him back destroy what they’ve fought so hard to build?

Pick up Hearts of Ember Book 4, BUILDING, and dive in.
