"This was such an awesome story that I can't really figure out where to begin... The dichotomy of this story is phenomenal. In one way, it was slow moving in that you are given slow tidbits of what was, what is, and what might be. It unfolds gently like a beautiful flower. On the other hand, the flow is continuous and never stagnant... The writing itself is extremely well done. Things were clear, well written/edited, and solidly thought out. It was a perfect blend of romance, SF, and drama."

Girl Under Glass
To protect her young daughter from a madman and a tyrant, Rachel Pryne must trust an enemy — one of the alien warriors who conquered Earth.
It is 2032, the Ohnenrai — Earth’s humanoid alien conquerors — orbit the planet, and Terran reproduction is failing. Rachel, a trained medic, is struggling to protect her seven-year-old daughter, Pearl, from the sexual predation of their penal colony’s leader. Having fathered the girl by rape, he now intends to take her on her eighth birthday, only six weeks away.
Then Rachel finds her unlikely champion, an injured Ohnenrai soldier who appears in her yard one stormy evening. She knows she may be choosing death over the devil in trusting this warrior, but she doesn’t know that her trust, and her DNA, will make her one of the most important and endangered people to ever set foot aboard an Ohnenrai starship.
The only possible solution to the Ohnenrai’s extinction lies within Rachel, but all she wants to do is protect her daughter and see Earth’s alien conquerors go straight to hell.
