Combined Territories
SPOILER🤦♀️ Bryon, my promotion and tech wizard guy of extraordinary powers, suggested I put some kind of warning for spoilers. So consider yourself warned if you have not read book 6 and intend to, this post may contain information you would rather learn in the story. That being said, Heron claims the second territory and…
Read MorePacking and Moving
The whole process of moving is not one of my favorites. I would love to jump in and do it until I collapsed, get it finished, load it all on a truck and be done with this half. The problem of course is timing. Packing up too soon leaves us without essential equipment. Packing too…
Read MoreGordon
Gordon is the type of character that sometimes makes you want to grit your teeth, because he exudes male arrogance, yet whenever Hanna needs anything, he simply does it.

In book 6, Acceptance, Lars and Porter are on a mission and meet Dima, a council member. Lars of course knows her, but Porter has never had that pleasure. To complicate matters, she has never met a human. He offers her tea, as they have hot water on the fire, and she accepts, obviously curious.…
