Life was never the same again after The Fall, especially for those born with certain gifts that set them apart from others. Gifts that doomed those like Wren to a life of slavery with no hope of escape or turned a man like Jere into an unwilling master. When a fiery tragedy brings Jere into Wren's life it becomes clear that this new master is like nobody else Wren has ever known. How does a slave protect himself from someone unpredictable? Can love really exist between master and slave, or will it destroy them both? (M/M)

In a world where intellect and achievement are valued above all else, a young man risks everything to save his brother from a life of slavery. Thrown into a harsh, unyielding world where slaves are treated as less than animals, Sascha struggles to come to terms with everything he knows being ripped away from him, but a life of success could never prepare him for his life as one of the Demoted. Sinking lower and lower, Sascha begins to lose hope, but the whim of a mysterious, wealthy man has the potential to change all that. Cashiel has a dark history that he guards carefully. Between family and business and politics, he rarely has time for a slave, much less a lover. But when he sees a young man who reminds him of the very history he is trying to escape, he makes an impulse decision that he's not sure whether to regret or not. The slave could expose everything, or he could be the most valuable asset that Cashiel has ever acquired. Cashiel and Sascha share desires, hopes, and a home. Each man is limited by status, hindered by history, and desperate to succeed. The question is, will that be enough? (M/M)

Months have passed since Jere and Wren first came to peace with their new life together in the slave state of Hojer. Jere's clinic has succeeded perhaps too well, leaving both men exhausted and stressed. When Jere goes looking for a new slave to help with the business, Wren objects vehemently. He doesn't want to risk the exposure of their secret relationship, much less the forbidden gift he's only just learning to control. Worse yet, the new girl, Isis, is nothing but trouble. Battered, broken, and rebellious, she won't even let Jere heal the most basic wounds left from years of abuse by her previous masters. When Isis lands them all in legal trouble, Jere can no longer afford to ignore the realities of being in a slave state. The three of them will have to work together to fight back. Can Jere confront his public role as a master and still be the submissive partner Wren loves so dearly?

Under the Miller System, anyone who doesn't pass their standardized tests is "demoted" to a life of slavery to the educated elite. Cashiel Michaud is one of the elite. His lover, Sascha, should have been as well, but an impulsive decision to save his less talented brother ultimately made him Cashiel's personal slave. Luckily, Cashiel understands the true value of a brilliant man like Sascha, and put him to work rooting out the dirty secrets of the system that drew them together. It was a risky decision, and one that put them both in terrible danger. Now the news is out about Cashiel involvement in research to undermine the Miller System. He and Sascha have been placed in separate jails as their high-pressure legal case develops under the scrutiny of the establishment and abolitionists alike. Trapped in a harsh slave facility, Sascha must work blind in parallel with Cashiel's efforts to get them both released, making sacrifices and delicate arrangements along the way. Sascha and Cashiel face numerous threats from the outside world, and some from the people closest to them. They don't know who to trust and their plans and their love are being put to the test. The results of this test could change the world. (M/M)

Our personal relationship with death defines our moral codes, relationships, bodies, the society we strive for, our supernatural beliefs and our ability to risk, relax, trust, divulge and love. When we unpack our fears of dying - which this book describes as six fears - it is clear they drive our lives, mostly in a positive way. This book takes a very personal perspective from someone given a breast cancer diagnosis at a young age, and examines those fears from a historical and philosophical perspective.

How can you increase innovation at local levels and build new technology hotspots? Building an Innovation Hotspot outlines the approaches governments, communities and industry have used to stimulate innovation and examines the evidence behind them. It also identifies real-world examples where these approaches have worked and where they have failed.As future industries will be built on new technologies - particularly digital technologies - the final chapters of this book consider how artificial intelligence, blockchain, augmented and virtual reality, and 3D printing might change not just where innovation occurs, but innovation itself. Stimulating innovation will be key to addressing our future needs in the shadow of the COVID-19 pandemic and in tackling the all-pervasive impacts of climate change.This is an essential book for anyone looking to build their local economy and compete in a more globalized world connected by the next wave of digital technology.
