The Gift of the Stars Trilogy

The Stars Within cover
 

The Stars Within (Book 1)

For Kerelle Evandra, her psionic powers have always meant three things: mandatory service to a multigalactic corporation, a luxurious lifestyle as a prized asset, and an electronic collar that will kill her if she steps out of line. As much as Kerelle might resent her gilded cage - and obedience to her corporate masters’ cold directives - everyone knows that escape is impossible. And defiance risks not just her own life, but also the life of the person closest to her: Galhen Ambrel, her lover and fellow bound psionic.

But when Galhen’s contract is suddenly sold to a distant oligarch, Kerelle learns that obedience was not the guarantee of safety she once thought - and that escape may not be as inconceivable as she was taught to believe. When a mission brings her into contact with an unexpected ally, she must decide how far she can go, and how much she’s willing to risk for freedom.

The Stars Unbound (Book 2)

Kerelle Evandra has done the impossible: she’s broken free of her control collar and escaped the PsiCorp. For the first time in her life, her fate is in her own hands. But Kerelle didn’t escape for only her own sake. Her lover Galhen is still being held at a powerful oligarch’s estate, and she didn’t come this far just to abandon him now.

Kerelle and her allies devise a daring plan to rescue Galhen - but success comes at a terrible price, and they are left trying to find a way forward in a future they never imagined. Kerelle and Galhen soon discover that a new life outside SysTech holds its own set of questions, and they’re running out of time to find the answers. As old threats resurface, it’s clear that the past - and the PsiCorp - isn’t done with them yet.

The Stars Ablaze (Book 3)

Kerelle and her allies are done running.

After their close escape from SysTech’s pursuers, one thing is clear: the multigalactic will never stop hunting them…and the only way forward is to take the fight to SysTech instead. With the help of a powerful new ally, Kerelle’s group begins working to free other PsiCorp members from corporate control - and the Psionic Rebellion is born.

If the rebels succeed, it could mean freedom for psionics across the galaxy, and an end to the future conscription to the PsiCorp. But SysTech will stop at nothing to see them crushed, and soon Kerelle and her new allies are locked in a desperate struggle for survival. As the stakes rise and difficult choices are made, only one thing is certain: come victory or death, the time for hiding is over.
