The Refugees Fight On...
Earth Two is a world beset by dangers, inside and out. It’s genetic groupings, the cloned “Tanks,” the “Natural Borns” and the hybrid “Mules” exist uneasily, each wary of the others, even as they rally to face the deadly threat of the First Imperium’s robot warriors.
President Max Harmon and his inner circle have played an elaborate game of chess for twelve years, a deadly battle of wits with the genocidal alien Intelligence known as the Regent. They have moved fleets, spread deceptions, built decoy planets…all to hide Earth Two’s location, to protect it from the deadly onslaught of the enemy.
But sitting and waiting is a losing game. The Regent’s resources are just too powerful, its technology too advanced. It will find Earth Two eventually…and when it does, it will consign the planet to the apocalypse of antimatter devastation. Harmon knows his people must do something…and when a scouting fleet sends back word that it has found the enemy’s antimatter production site, it seems almost too good to be true.
Harmon suspects it is all a trap designed to lure his fleet to its destruction. But, more than one side can lay a trap, or turn one around, and the elimination of the Regent’s antimatter production will go a long way to evening the two sides, and setting the stage for a final showdown the humans can win.

An outcast on the high seas . . .
The son of a proud naval dynasty, Gabriel Hawkins was born to command
the sea, until he leaves the Royal Navy in disgrace and is disowned by
his family. As captain of his own ship, he’s earned his living in ways
both legal and illegal, and his experience makes him the best choice to
ransom an aristocratic beauty captured by Barbary pirates.
Having avoided the traps of convention and marriage, Lady Aurora
Lawrence is horrified by the prospect of spending her life as a harem
slave. Her only hope of escape is a quiet, steely captain who has a
history with her captor—and who will do anything to free Rory. Together
they undertake a dangerous mission through troubled waters—and encounter
another kind of danger as attraction burns hot within the close
confines of his ship. But even if they endure the perils of the sea and
enemy lands, can their love survive a return to England, where the
distance between a disgraced captain and an earl’s daughter is wider
than the ocean?
