The age-old question, "Are we alone in the universe?" has been answered. Definitely not alone, and definitely not friendly ...

Jesse - She's worked hard to become a Lieutenant Commander for TechStar's best SPAR team in 2064. Jesse and her team are hunting a well-organized criminal syndicate of slave traders known as the Nomad. The discovery that the enemy species, who attempted to destroy Earth 28 years prior, is behind the disappearances is shattering. SPAR's mandate is to find the missing and stop the evil behind the operation. It's clear that SPAR needs help from their allies, but who can they trust?

Zersus - The Nomad destroyed his people's home planet before he was born. He was raised during his first ten years on a starship. His people allied with Earth's humans to fight the Nomad in 2035. Now, as Prime of the warship Aries, he moves through space with his crew, looking to avenge his people while assisting other species that may have fallen victim to their common enemy. On the journey back to the Terras, where his people have settled with the humans, his crew uncovers pieces of a sinister plot orchestrated by the Nomad. Will they stop them in time to save their loved ones?

Jesse and Zersus aren't the type to need, let alone ask, for help, but combining their respective SPAR team and Aries crew may be the only way to face a universal nemesis determined to destroy what's left of their home and both species. Friendships would be fused, and lovers would be forged, but can the collective result be survival? Can a new partnership of strong allies protect those who can't defend themselves?

J.A.M. Cormier's debut novel is an epic space opera series packed with futuristic planets, advanced and efficient starships, motivated alien species, and an exploration of new comrades, requited loves, and rekindled family.

If you enjoy a dose of Star Trek with a dash of Battlestar Galactica paired with romance inspired by Anna Hackett's Galactic Gladiators series. In that case, you will fall deeply for the characters in the introduction of the ongoing Terra Alliance stories. We begin with the found family tales of the Beaudreaus. Enjoy the ride.
